… And I Could Tell
Published

Piers Morgan Uncensored
Charlie Sheen would not consider Matthew Perry was sober the 12 months earlier than his loss of life … which he finds ironic given the “Friends” star was selling a guide about his sobriety on the time.
The actor made the daring declare on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” Tuesday, the place he stated he “could tell” Perry wasn’t sober on the press tour for his memoir, “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing,” which dropped a 12 months earlier than his deadly overdose in October 2023.
Remember, Perry claimed to be 19 months sober when his guide dropped in November 2022.
And so, Sheen recalled feeling “really bad” for Perry, particularly after listening to a snippet of the memoir’s audio version … claiming MP lacked “that perfect, specific, laser-focused diction that he always had delivering comedy.”
Instead, Sheen felt Perry sounded “handicapped,” not realizing tragedy would strike his peer quickly after.
He added … “I don’t know if I could’ve affected what ultimately happened … But I could see when he was promoting it, I could feel the sort of prison he put himself in.”
This is not the primary time Sheen has talked about Perry amid the press tour for his personal memoir, titled “The Book of Sheen.”
He beforehand expressed remorse about not reaching out to Perry earlier than his loss of life … and confessed he attended MP’s help group for addicts previously.
Sheen had a visitor function on “Friends” within the ’90s, taking part in Ryan, a Lieutenant Commander within the United States Navy and a love curiosity for Lisa Kudrow‘s Phoebe.

As for Sheen … he is celebrating 8 years of sobriety.
