Matthew Perry’s mom, Suzanne Morrison, revealed the final conversation she had with her late son.
The Friends actor, who died from the acute effects of ketamine on October 28, 2023, had expressed his love for his mother in a way that felt premonitory.
“He went through a period, interestingly enough, just before he died when he was showing me one of his new houses,” she recently told Today‘s Savannah Guthrie.
“He came up to me and he said, ‘I love you so much, and I’m so happy to be with you now. And I’m so…’ It was almost as though it was a premonition or something.”

The actor had not opened up about his feelings for her in a long time. “I didn’t think about it at the time,” Suzanne continued, “but I thought, ‘How long has it been since we’ve had a conversation like that?’ It’s been years.”
Looking back on her conversation with Matthew that day, Suzanne felt like her son somehow knew that his death was imminent.
“There was an inevitability to what was going to happen next to him, and he felt it very strongly.”
The last words he spoke to her left her concerned. “He said, ‘I’m not frightened anymore,’” she recalled. “And it worried me.”
Today will air the full interview with Suzanne on October 28, the first anniversary of Matthew’s death.

The 17 Again actor’s half-sister, Caitlin Morrison, also shared how she remembers Matthew nearly a year after his death.
“He had this ability to fill up a room with light,” the 43-year-old told Hello magazine on Friday (October 25). “When people were in a room with him, he had this magnetic energy. Everybody just had a smile on their face and they clung to everything he said.”
Caitlin and her dad, Keith Morrison, channeled their grief by expanding The Matthew Perry Foundation, which helps those who struggle with addiction.
“The work that I’m doing now is very selfish because it kind of feels like I’m sitting right next to Matthew. Working with him every day on something that was important to him,” she said.

Matthew’s other half-siblings are Emily Morrison, 39, Maria “Mia” Perry, 38, Will Morrison, 37, and Madeline Morrison.
“We are heartbroken by the tragic loss of our beloved son and brother,” his family said in a statement after his death.
“Matthew brought so much joy to the world, both as an actor and a friend. You all meant so much to him and we appreciate the tremendous outpouring of love.”
The actor tragically passed aged 54 from the acute effects of ketamine, a drug that he was using to treat anxiety, in the hot tub at his Los Angeles home.

Since then, five people have been charged in connection to his death, including physician Dr. Mark Chavez, who pleaded guilty to conspiring to distribute the surgical anesthetic to Matthew.
The other individuals charged in connection to what prosecutors described as a “broad underground criminal network” include Kenneth Iwamasa, his personal assistant, Erik Fleming, who distributed the ketamine that killed the actor, Jasveen Sangha, who reportedly ran a “drug-selling emporium,” and Dr. Salvador Plasencia, who contacted Dr. Chvez and sold the drug to Matthew’s assistant.
