Matthew Perry Feared Charlie Sheen Would Rat Him Out For Not Being Sober Ahead of His 2023 Death
Matthew Perry carried a secret fear in the final months of his life — that his pal Charlie Sheen would rat him out and ruin the carefully crafted narrative of his recovery from drugs, sources say.
“Charlie knew Matthew was not sober,” an industry insider says to Straight Shuter. “And Matthew hated that. Charlie had lived that wild, chaotic life himself — he could spot the signs instantly. There was no fooling him.”
A longtime friend explains: “Matthew was always fighting demons, but the one person who could really call him out was Charlie, who is blunt and doesn’t care who he offends. That scared Matthew more than anything else.” The Friends funnyman was found dead in his hot tub from a drug overdose on Oct. 28, 2023, at age 54.
