Jessica Hecht On Her Favorite 'Friends' Scene With Matthew Perry

Jessica Hecht, who starred in the hit sitcom "Friends" alongside the late Matthew Perry, is speaking out on the passing of the 54-year-old. As she looks back on her time with Perry on the show, she is opening up about her favorite scene that she filmed with him.

In "The One With The Breast Milk", Hecht, who played Susan, the wife of Ross Gellar's ex Carol, tasted Carol's breast milk, which disgusted Ross (David Schwimmer). The rest of the friends also wanted to taste the breast milk, but Hecht said Perry's attempt was the best.

“His [Perry’s] was the silliest attempt to taste the breast milk,” she told Page Six, laughing. “I just remember how kind he was and how he tried to make everyone else at ease.”

As previously reported, Perry was found in his hot tub, unresponsive. Police initially responded to a 911 call to assist with what they described as a possible "water rescue" at the late actor’s Pacific Palisades home. He is believed to have drowned.

When remembering the late actor, his "Friends" co-star said, “He was so silly when he was young, and he was so easy to love."

She then went on to say how Perry “was kinder to other people [than himself], as many people are who suffer from addiction and all of that — just desperate for other people to be relieved from the pain that they feel.”

The 54-year-old actor had struggled with addiction for a long time, though it wasn’t until he released his memoir that he opened up and let down his walls about that time in his life. Last year, he stated he had been clean for 18 months, even spending “$9 million or something trying to get sober.” After coming forward with his addiction, he vowed to help others who were struggling.

After Perry was found unresponsive at his home last month, many began to speculate that the “Friends” actor relapsed or had some sort of illegal drug in his system. Prescription anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medications were reportedly found in Matthew Perry‘s home, but sources say that no illegal narcotics were discovered at the scene.

“He was 100 percent sober when he passed,” Matthew Perry’s close friend, Athenna Crosby, told Fox News Digital, per our previous report.

“I mean, I can’t know what exactly he was thinking or feeling. I can only share my experience,” Crosby added. “And, of course, he was his own person that maybe he had said, done, or thought of things the day that he passed that I might never come to know.”

Matt LeBlanc, who portrayed Joey Tribbani on the hit sitcom, “Friends,” alongside Perry, who played Chandler Bing, was the first of the main cast to release an individual statement on the passing of the “Friends” star just a few days ago.

“Matthew, It is with a heavy heart I say goodbye,” LeBlanc began to say in his post. “The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life. It was an honor to share the stage with you and to call you my friend. I will always smile when I think of you and I’ll never forget you. Never.”

Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, and Lisa Kudrow have all released individual statements on Perry's passing.
