Actor Matthew Perry has revealed some sad personal news just days after his appearance in the much-anticipated Friends reunion.
Speaking to People magazine, the 51-year-old revealed his engagement to 29-year-old literary manager Molly Hurwitz had been called off.
“Sometimes things just don’t work out and this is one of them,” he said in a statement.
“I wish Molly the best.”
According to People, the actor and Hurwitz began dating in 2018 and became engaged in November last year.
“I decided to get engaged,” Perry told the outlet at the time.
“Luckily, I happened to be dating the greatest woman on the face of the planet at this time.”
Fans worried
The news comes just days after Perry’s appearance on the Friends reunion show had some fans worried about his health.
After a trailer aired that appeared to show Perry slurring his words, the show’s director leaped to the actor’s defense.
“He was great,” director Ben Winston said on The Hollywood Reporter’s podcast “TV’s Top Five”.
“People can sometimes just be unkind. I wish they weren’t.
“I loved working with him.
“He’s a brilliantly funny man and I thought he had some great one-liners in the show.
“I felt just happy and lucky to be in his presence and directing him on something like this.”
Viral dating app story
The broken engagement news comes several weeks after a young woman’s story of matching with Perry on dating app Raya went viral.
Kate Haralson, 20, posted a now-deleted TikTok video of her slightly cringe-inducing chat with Perry after they matched on the app.
The clip shows Haralson, who was 19 at the time Perry contacted her, shaking her head and holding her head in her hands.
“When you match with Matthew Perry as a joke on a dating app and he FaceTimes you and plays 20 questions with you,” the video is captioned.
In the video snippet, Perry’s face is pressed close to the camera.
“Do you always touch your hair this much?”, he says.
“A lot of people were saying I’m a bully and mean for posting this and it made me feel kinda bad, but at the same time I feel like a lot of guys in Hollywood are talking to all these young girls and it’s something I think a lot of people should be aware of,” she said.
She said she thought it would be “funny” to chat to Perry, even though she was not really familiar with Friends.
Prior to dating Hurwitz, Perry was romantically linked to actor Lizzy Caplan from 2006 to 2012.
