Matthew Perry’s Haunting Final Instagram Post Draws Attention

Even now, nearly two years after his passing, fans continue to flood the comment section of Matthew Perry’s final Instagram post, a haunting image of the actor relaxing in a hot tub just days before his death.

Many leave heartfelt messages, tributes, and questions about the circumstances surrounding his overdose, turning the post into a digital memorial for the beloved “Friends” star.

As new legal developments unfold, it’s clear that Matthew Perry’s death still resonates deeply with the public, who remain both heartbroken and searching for answers.

In the past 48 hours alone, fans from around the world have continued to flood the comment section with heartfelt tributes and emotional messages.

“We miss you, thank you for everything you have done again,” one follower wrote, while another confessed, “I can’t get over his death.”

Dove and heart emojis dominate the thread, symbolizing the lasting love and sorrow felt by those who grew up watching Perry as Chandler Bing.

Some users return regularly to the post to share their heartbreak. “I’ve come back because I miss you and your humor,” one wrote. Another added, “Wish you could’ve stayed longer,” alongside a dove and broken heart.

While fans continue to grieve and leave messages beneath Perry’s haunting final Instagram post, the legal fallout surrounding his death is still unfolding.

As The Blast reported, Dr. Salvador Plasencia has pleaded guilty to distributing ketamine to Matthew Perry in the weeks leading up to the beloved actor’s fatal overdose, becoming the fourth person convicted in connection to the “Friends” star’s shocking 2023 death.

Though Dr. Salvador Plasencia was not actively treating Matthew Perry at the time of his death, he intends to voluntarily surrender his medical license within the next 30 to 45 days. Plasencia now faces up to 10 years in federal prison for each of the four counts. He will remain free on bond until his sentencing hearing, scheduled for December 3.

This plea follows the convictions of others involved in Perry’s ketamine access.

Dr. Chavez pleaded guilty to ketamine distribution in October 2024 and is set to be sentenced in September.

Iwamasa, Perry’s assistant, admitted to administering ketamine on the day of the actor’s death and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute ketamine, causing death. He will be sentenced in November.

This all comes after a recently released documentary claimed the actor was reportedly administered 27 ketamine injections in the days leading up to his death in October 2023.

Perry, who had long been open about his struggles with addiction, had turned to ketamine therapy as a treatment for depression. The report claims that on the day of his death, Perry asked his live-in assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, for his first injection around 8:30 a.m.

He allegedly received a second dose approximately four hours later while watching a movie, then requested a third injection just 40 minutes after that, reportedly saying, “Shoot me up with a big one,” before preparing to enter his hot tub. Iwamasa, who left to run an errand shortly after, returned to find the actor unresponsive. Perry was later pronounced dead at the scene.

In a recent interview with HELLO! Canada, Morrison, and his daughter Caitlin, whose mother is Suzanne Morrison and who was also a close sibling figure to Perry, shared memories of the late actor and spoke about the initiatives being launched in his honor.

“It was incredibly shocking when he suddenly died,” Morrison said of Perry’s passing last year. “Anybody who has lost a child will tell you that, even if you are in some way prepared for the possibility, it’s shattering.”

Despite the grief, the family has channeled their loss into purpose. “What we have decided to do is hang on to that determination and try to do something useful,” Morrison added.

Caitlin shared that she’s continuing Perry’s mission through her work with The Matthew Perry Foundation of Canada, a separate initiative from the U.S.-based foundation created shortly after his death. “I have this treasure of getting to keep him very, very close to my life all the time, which is wonderful,” she said.

Perry, who had been candid about his struggles with addiction, made it clear in his 2022 memoir, “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing,” how he hoped to be remembered. “[I want to be remembered] as a guy who lived life, loved well, lived well, and helped people,” he wrote. “That running into me was a good thing and not something bad.”

Morrison echoed that message, saying, “He would like to be remembered for doing something to help people suffering from addiction.”
