Perry was found dead in his Los Angeles home’s hot tub in October 2023, with his cause of death later revealed to be “the acute effects of ketamine.”

The actor was 54.

At the time, a source told Page Six that his castmates were “reeling” from Perry’s “devastating” loss.

The stars subsequently released a joint statement before uploading individual social media tributes.

Cox, for her part, wrote in November 2023 that she was “so grateful for every moment” she had with Perry.

“To give a little backstory, Chandler and Monica were supposed to have a one night fling in London,” she noted of their respective characters. “But because of the audience’s reaction, it became the beginning of their love story.”

She concluded by calling Perry “funny and kind.”

In May, Cox told “CBS Sunday Morning” viewers that the “17 Again” star “visits [her] a lot” and she feels he is “around, for sure.”

Five individuals were charged with Perry’s death in August, with Dr. Mark Chavez and two others since pleading guilty.
