Matthew Perry’s shocking death in October 2023 rocked Hollywood. The former Friends star was mourned by family, friends, and fans alike in the weeks following his untimely passing. Eventually, reports revealed that the actor died from the acute effects of ketamine. He was found unresponsive in the jacuzzi of his Los Angeles home. However, Perry’s former girlfriend is now speaking out with a new theory about his death, claiming the details don’t quite add up.
Perry’s former girlfriend, Kayti Edwards, recently told The Mirror that she believes the police should re-open the investigation into the actor’s death. Edwards claims that there is a possibility that the beloved TV star may have had shady medical staff working for him that would pass him drugs, as it’s something that he’d done in the past.

“It needs to be looked at again. I know when Matthew was taking 40 to 50 Vicodin in a day, he was getting it from a nurse who would bring it to his house,” Edwards claims. “He had a way of enabling people to do things for him, saying, ‘I’ll give you this amount of money if you keep your mouth shut and get me this.’”
Kayti Edwards went on to reveal that Matthew Perry’s addiction was often terrifying. She alleged that the star would do multiple kinds of drugs to feed his habit. Sadly, this reportedly made it nearly impossible to offer him the help he needed at his darkest moments.
“Matthew wasn’t a casual partier, and when he was in his addiction, it was very scary,” she says. “He was just like a vacuum cleaner of anything you could get his hands on, which is very dangerous. But with a person in active addiction, you can’t really tell them to stop or make them stop. You know, you can just kind of be there for them.”
Hollywood is still feeling the impact of Matthew Perry’s death. His family members and even his former Friends co-stars, like Jennifer Aniston, continue to mourn the tragic loss of his life.
