In Matthew Perry’s love life, the same writers of the series “Friends” helped him win over Julia Roberts. It turned out that the actor didn’t know how to approach the star of “Pretty Woman”, so he asked those who wrote the dialogues and situations of the episodes for advice on what he should do. Roberts would have asked him why he was dating him after a long fax exchange, and that’s where the magic of the word specialists came into play.
“I don’t know if Julia fell in love with Matthew at first sight, but they started dating very quickly. And I felt like Cyrano de Bergerac,” Jeff Astrof, one of the “Celestin” screenwriters, recalled at the time.
The actor himself told The Times of London that there was even a family presentation in New Mexico. When the actress appeared on “Friends,” they were already a couple.
The death of “Friends” star Matthew Perry has been reported
Perry and Roberts had only been together for two months when the actor decided to end the relationship, according to his memoir “Friends, Lovers and the Great Terrible,” published last year. “Dating Julia Roberts had been too much for me. I was constantly sure he was going to break up with me. Why shouldn’t I? I wasn’t enough; could never be enough; “I was broken, destroyed, I was not worthy of love,” he said.
LOVE OTHERS
In a few interviews, Perry confessed that he was attracted to his co-stars Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston, with whom he never achieved anything. Aniston said he felt what he thought was a positive reaction, but when he decided to take the first step, he realized his mistake.
“I felt ice on the other side of the receiver,” he said.
