Lisa Kudrow, beloved for her role as Phoebe Buffay in the iconic sitcom Friends, has recently stumbled upon a touching relic from her late co-star, Matthew Perry. The discovery of a handwritten note tucked away in one of the props used on the Friends set has fans reminiscing about the deep bonds shared by the cast.
Kudrow revealed the story during a recent interview, describing the emotional moment she found the note while sifting through memorabilia from the show. “It was inside a small box we used as a set decoration,” she explained. “I don’t even remember how it ended up in my things, but when I opened it, I saw Matthew’s handwriting.”
The note, which Lisa shared a snippet of, was a humorous yet heartfelt message, perfectly capturing Perry’s wit and warmth. “You always made me laugh, even when I didn’t want to,” the message read. “Thanks for being the weirdest and most wonderful person I’ve ever met.” Kudrow admitted she was moved to tears, saying, “It was so Matthew, you know? Full of love, humor, and sincerity.”
Matthew Perry, who tragically passed away in October 2023, played the sarcastic and lovable Chandler Bing on the show. Since his passing, his Friends co-stars have shared countless memories and tributes, showcasing the tight-knit friendship they maintained long after the cameras stopped rolling.
Fans have been flooding social media with emotional reactions to Kudrow’s revelation. One fan tweeted, “This just shows how genuine their friendship was. Matthew’s spirit truly lives on.” Another commented, “Phoebe and Chandler were always a vibe, and this just makes my heart ache in the best way.”
Kudrow expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from fans during this time. “It’s comforting to know how much Matthew meant to everyone,” she said. “Finding that note felt like he was sending a little reminder of the good times we shared.”
While the world continues to mourn the loss of Matthew Perry, stories like this highlight the enduring legacy of his kindness and humor. Kudrow’s poignant discovery serves as a testament to the unbreakable bonds formed on one of television’s most cherished shows.
