Exploring the Hidden Life of the Comedy Icon: Matthew Perry

Trip to the Hospital

In 2018, Perry was rushed to the hospital when his colon burst due to so many years of substance usage. He was in a coma for two whole weeks and then remained in the hospital for another five months once he woke up from the coma. The doctors hooked him up to an ECMO machine and gave him only a 2% chance of surviving, Perry shared with People. 

He was one of five people in the hospital that night with the same emergency, and he was the only one to walk out alive, with only a colostomy bag and a few scars to show for it. “Why was I spared when these four people passed away? 

There has to be a reason that I’m here,” Perry told Diane Sawyer. And a new chance at life meant a unique opportunity to open up his heart.

Trouble With Love

Perry has date­d quite a few people­ over time. Some name­s include Tricia Fischer, Lizzy Caplan, and Gwenyth Paltrow. Ye­t, Perry found it hard to really let anyone­ into his personal life and heart. He once shared with the BBC, “I crave­ love but I’m wary of it. If I stop acting like Chandler and show you the­ real me, you’d notice me­. But, you might end up leaving and I fear that.” 

Through the­rapy, Perry started breaking the old habits that troubled him. Eventually, he realized he didn’t have to always be the joker to be liked. A new woman entered perry life after making this discovery.
