Former Friends star Matthew Perry has released a statement announcing that he will be going away for a while in order to work on his addictions. Altho Perry‘s people insist that he has not suffered a relapse, they make clear that this month-long stint in rehab is part of his on-going recovery. You may know that Perry returned to TV recently in the ABC series Mr. Sunshine, so it’s possible that he is just making sure he stays clean so that he can return to the show when the new TV season starts up in the Fall.
Matthew Perry, who has struggled with prescription pills and alcohol in the past, is going back to a treatment facility as part of his ongoing recovery. The Friends star, 41, confirms the move in a statement that ends with a Chandler Bing-style dry quip. “I’m making plans to go away for a month to focus on my sobriety and to continue my life in recovery,” he says. “Please enjoy making fun of me on the World Wide Web.” Perry, who most recently appeared in Mr. Sunshine on ABC, was in rehab twice in 2001 and 1997. A source tells PEOPLE, “There was no relapse,” and that the actor plans to enter the facility shortly.
Making a joke in an announcement about rehab is a sure defense mechanism … but it also seems to imply that Matthew is trying to keep things as normal as possible by staying in control. Addiction is a lifelong battle and I wish him nothing but the greatest success. Here’s hoping his month away will foster his sobriety and afford him the fortitude to keep his addictions in check.
