The star was known for his iconic role as Chandler Bing in the hit TV show “Friends.”
Jennifer Anniston and the other four “Friends” cast members mourned their co-star on Friday at his memorial. However reports state Anniston and Courtney Cox are struggling the most following the shock death.
“Out of the remaining five, Jen and Courteney [Cox] are reeling the most, and Jen is probably the one who is struggling most acutely,” said the source.
Aniston and Perry shared the screen for ten seasons. Together they created one of the most enduring and beloved on-screen friendships in television history. Their chemistry as Rachel Green and Chandler Bing was a significant part of what made “Friends” an iconic show, and the bond they formed off-screen was equally strong. It’s no surprise that Perry’s sudden departure has profoundly affected Aniston.
“It’s a second massive loss in less than a year, with the one-year anniversary of her dad’s death just around the corner. She still hasn’t fully regained her footing from that, and now this has just completely knocked her off her feet.” shared the source.
Perry’s loss has “completely knocked her off her feet.” Aniston, who had remained friends with Perry long after the show ended, is struggling to come to terms with the devastating news. The pair had shared countless memories, both on and off the set, and their camaraderie was evident in the enduring popularity of “Friends.”
“She was the one that reached out the most. You know, I’m really grateful to her for that,” Perry said of Aniston in an October 2022 interview with Diane Sawyer.
Perry also revealed that it was Aniston who initially confronted him on the “Friends” set when his addiction became evident to his castmates.
