How can one say goodbye to someone whom one has spent most of their lives with? But with a heavy heart and a lot of pain, the Friends cast said their toughest goodbyes to their beloved friend, Matthew Perry. Mere days after the actor’s demise, his 5 costars and friends broke their silence on their social media handles to share their memorable time with the late actor.

Notably, all the actors’ final words came in reflecting their on-screen relationship with the Chandler Bing fame.

Friends cast’s painful tribute to Matthew Perry

Chandler Bing was the one who kept the entire group glued together. His adorable bond with Joey, and then the love of his life, Monica, completed Bing’s family. Moreover, his bond with Rachel and Phoebe was impeccable, along with his brotherhood with Ross. Coincidentally, the cast members’ final words also followed this order, reflecting their relationship with Matthew Perry.

Although Chandler was Ross’ friend first, Joey was the closest. Thus, Matt LeBlanc’s post came first with his goodbye with “a heavy heart.” With a series of pictures from the sitcom, LeBlanc expressed his gratitude and honored Matthew Perry. Guessing Chandler was “keeping the 20 bucks” he owned Joey, he set his best friend free to spread his wings and fly. After Joey, the closet was Monica Geller, Chandler’s soulmate and wife.

The Chandler-Monica dynamic was the center of the sitcom. And talking about the same, Courteney Cox remembered Perry with the iconic moment when it all started for the on-screen couple. Jennifer Aniston also shared how she went through “an insane wave of emotions” to pour her heart out. She posted a clip of the emotional goodbye scene from the show. The one who had been with Chandler the longest, Ross Geller, penned down his painful feelings, followed by Lisa Kudrow’s as well.

Last but not least, Lisa Kudrow thanked Perry for his “open heart in a six-way relationship that required compromise.” Remembering their initial meeting, she walked fans through their journey, from poker to the trust they built over the years. Her post left fans extremely emotional with her sense of gratitude and an immense amount of love.

From complete strangers to a “chosen family“, the Friends stars’ final words coincidentally followed their beautiful on-screen relationship order with Matthew Perry’s Chandler Bing.
