The Friends star was going to take in Matthew Perry's dog after his death, but it didn't work out: the actor's ex-fiancée has the animal

Lisa Kudrow, who played Phoebe Buffay in the cult TV series Friends, was going to take in her co-star Matthew Perry's dog Chandler Bing after his death on Saturday, October 28. The actor, whose heart stopped beating at the age of 54, got a pet three years ago.

However, as it turned out, Kudrow will not be able to take the dog with him. The fact is that he already lives with the star's former fiancée, literary manager Molly Hurwitz. PEOPLE writes about it.

Perry and Hurwitz got a four-legged friend while they were already in a relationship. They named him Alfred. After the couple broke up and the engagement was terminated, the dog stayed with Molly. The woman said that he saved her from depression.

"Alfred is a lot of mischief, but he is really the most loving potato. He came into my life during a dark depression and helped me get out of it. And he's also so damn cute," Molly said about the dog.

Obviously, by dark depression, she meant the period after her breakup with Perry. The actor proposed to his beloved in 2020, announcing that he was "dating the most beautiful woman on the planet." However, 7 months later, the bride and groom canceled the wedding.

Molly reacted to her ex's death. On her Instagram page, she admitted that Perry was a complicated person who knew how to hurt, but she still loved him dearly.

"He would have loved to have the world talking about how talented he was. And he was very talented indeed... It was magical to be with him as he rediscovered his genius. But, obviously, I knew this man in a completely different way. Although I loved him more deeply than I could have ever imagined, he was complicated and caused pain like I had never known. No one in my adult life has had a more profound impact on me than Matthew Langford Perry. I am eternally grateful to him for that, for everything I have learned from our relationship," wrote Matthew Perry's former fiancée.

As a reminder, the actor was found dead in a jacuzzi. "He seems to have drowned," law enforcement insiders told reporters. It is noted that the first responders arrived at the scene after receiving a call about a cardiac arrest. All the details are in the article. Later, new details of the celebrity's death emerged. Law enforcement officers searched the deceased's house. They did not find the drugs that the filmmaker had been addicted to for many years, but they did find a lot of prescription drugs, including antidepressants.

After a long pause, the actor's death was also commented on by his Friends colleagues. Read what Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox and others had to say here.

Fans speculate that the actor could have committed suicide. The reason for such speculation was Perry's strange posts a few days before his death. In particular, he posted a photo from the same jacuzzi where his body was found and left the caption: "Do you understand what I'm trying to tell you?"
