Julia Roberts has reflected on Friends star Matthew Perry after he died in October aged 54.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Roberts<\/strong>, who was briefly in a relationship with Perry<\/strong>, said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight that she had “all good thoughts and feelings” towards him and the show.<\/p>\n Speaking about her experience appearing on the sitcom in 1996, Roberts said: “They were all so welcoming to me as just a kind of a one-off character and it was a really fun time.”<\/p>\n “The sudden passing of anybody so young is heartbreaking. I think that, you know, it just helps all of us just appreciate what we have and to keep going in a positive way as best we can,” the 56-year-old added.<\/p>\n Perry said in his 2022 memoir that the pair had a “three-month-long courtship” around the time of filming the episode titled The One After The Superbowl.<\/p>\n He wrote of their relationship: “Three or four times a day I would sit by my fax machine and watch the piece of paper slowly revealing her next missive.<\/p>\n “I was so excited that some nights I would find myself out at some party sharing a flirtatious exchange with an attractive woman and cut the conversation short so I could race home and see if a new fax had arrived.<\/p>\n “It was like she was placed on this planet to make the world smile, and now, in particular, me. I was grinning like some 15-year-old on his first date.”<\/p>\n But Perry broke up with Roberts, known for roles in films like Pretty Woman and Notting Hill, shortly afterwards.<\/p>\n In his memoir, Perry said the relationship “had been too much for me”.<\/p>\n “I had been constantly certain that she was going to break up with me. Why would she not? I was not enough; I could never be enough; I was broken, bent, unlovable,” he wrote.<\/p>\n “Instead of facing the inevitable agony of losing her, I broke up with the beautiful and brilliant Julia Roberts.<\/p>\n “She might have considered herself slumming it with a TV guy, and TV guy was now breaking up with her.<\/p>\n “I can’t begin to describe the look of confusion on her face.”<\/p>\n Read more:
