Nov 02, 2022
New Delhi [India], November 2 : Matthew Perry aka Chandler from 'Friends' revealed that he is off of dating apps "forever"!
A year after breaking his engagement to Molly Hurwitz, Matthew Perry "could not be more single."
According to Page Six, while speaking to Andy Cohen, Matthew Perry revealed that he was "off (dating apps) forever!"
He also said that he doesn't believe that technology is the "way to meet people," adding, "I'm not sure how ... but that's not the way to do it."
Page Six reports that Andy further asked him if he is looking for a sober partner amid his struggles with addiction, and he responded, "That would be good. But it's not a necessity.
"I wouldn't like to be with somebody who drank so much that you couldn't recognize them," he continued. "That would not be good. ... But I don't have any rules about that."
Perry recently wrote a memoir where he revealed that he hadn't used any drugs or alcohol in the previous 18 months.
He revealed that he had attended almost 6,000 AA meetings, had 30 years of counselling, half of his life in rehab or sober living facilities, and about 65 detox approximately.
The actor confessed earlier this month that his colon ruptured due to drug overuse in 2018 and he came dreadfully "near to death," as per Page Six.
In actuality, Perry spent five months in the hospital, including two weeks in a coma, and was forced to use a colostomy bag for nine months, despite his public claim to have experienced a "gastrointestinal perforation" at the time.
"The doctors told my family that I had a 2 per cent chance to live," he told People magazine in a story published earlier this month.
He said, "I was put on a thing called an ECMO machine, which does all the breathing for your heart and your lungs. And that's called a Hail Mary. No one survives that."
