Perry passed away at the age of 54 on October 28, 2023, after he was found unresponsive in a hot tub at his home in Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles. He was pronounced dead at 4:17 pm the same day. He was 54 years old. On November 3, 2023, his funeral was held at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Los Angeles where he was buried. His father, mother and stepfather attended, as did his ‘Friends’ co-stars.

Following the actor’s demise, the National Philanthropic Trust established the Matthew Perry Foundation to support people suffering from addiction. On December 15, 2023, his death was revealed to have occurred due to acute effects of ketamine.

Jasveen Sangha, 42, who is dubbed as the “Ketamine Queen”, was charged with overdose. She later agreed to plead guilty to selling the drugs that ultimately killed the ‘Friends’ actor. She pleaded guilty to five charges in Los Angeles, including one count of distributing ketamine resulting in death or bodily injury, as per the Justice Department.
