Matthew Perry’s Last Time Seen in Public Was Meal with a Friend, Plus His Eerie Last Post
Matthew Perry seemed to be enjoying a day out with a friend exactly one week before he died — leaving a West L.A. eatery in a scene that turns out to be the last time he’d be seen in public.
On October 21, the “Friends” star was walking out of the Apple Pan — a popular West L.A. spot for burgers, sandwiches and pies. He appeared to be leaving with a male friend who was carrying a takeout bag.
Matthew was growing a little goatee … a different look from the clean-cut guy millions of “Friends” fans knew and loved, but all in all the guy seemed to be doing well.
Prior to that, MP was seen on October 3, as he left a workout in Los Angeles.
TMZ broke the story … Matthew’s assistant found him unresponsive Saturday morning at his home, just a couple hours after he’d completed a 2-hour match of pickleball. Our sources say he was found in a hot tub, and there were no drugs found at the scene.
It certainly seems like Matthew enjoyed soaking in the tub. It’s an eerie image now, but just 6 days ago — in what would be his final IG post — he posted a nighttime shot from the hot tub, and included the caption, “Oh, so warm water swirling around makes you feel good? I’m Mattman.”
Clearly, that sense of humor his fans loved and came to expect from the beloved 54-year-old actor was still intact.
