Matthew Perry was in a good place before his shocking death … we’re told he was happy, content, optimistic and had recently committed to a new film.
Sources in daily contact with the late “Friends” star tell TMZ … Matthew had “never been happier” and had just moved into his new house 3 weeks ago and was loving the new digs.
In addition to being happy about his new home, we’re told Matthew had a lot going on in Hollywood … our sources say he had recently committed to acting in a new movie, a drama, and he was also working on other projects and coming up with ideas for scripts.
Overall, our sources say Matthew’s outlook on life was optimistic … and he was sober and felt content.
Add it all up, and it makes sense why those around Matthew are so shocked by his sudden death Saturday … as we first reported, he was found unresponsive in his jacuzzi after playing 2 hours of pickleball at Riviera near his home in Pacific Palisades.
Of course, Matthew’s been open about his history with substance abuse, and while there’s speculation that could be a factor here, so far there’s been no indication that’s the case.
For now, Matthew’s cause of death remains a mystery … and our sources have told us foul play is NOT suspected, and there were NO illicit drugs found at his home.
Matthew had picked up pickleball too … using the sport as a way to keep him away from drugs and on the straight and narrow.
We discussed Matthew’s legacy on the latest episode of Last Days, available on all podcast platforms.
