Tributes from a number of Matthew Perry's Friends co-stars have flooded in following the tragic news the actor has died at the age of 54.
Perry, who shot to global stardom as the sarcastic and lovable Chandler Bing in the Emmy-winning sitcom, was found in a hot-tub at his home after reportedly "drowning".
Tributes from fans across the globe have since been paid to the actor following his death, with several praising the actor for his hilarious on-screen antics as well as his candor regarding his battles with addiction.
Perry was vocal about his struggles with alcoholism and anxiety during his life in the spotlight, leading him to admit he avoided watching old episodes of Friends when he was alive.
Following the news of his death, several actors who featured alongside Perry in those classic episodes of the hit comedy have shared their reactions to his passing.
Maggie Wheeler, who took on the iconic role of Chandler's on-off - and irritable - girlfriend Janice throughout the series took to Instagram with an old photo of Janice and Chandler together.
