Matthew Perry and Molly Hurwitz break off engagement

Matthew Perry has announced some sad news, just days after the much-hyped Friends reunion had fans worried about his wellbeing.

It’s over for Matthew Perry and his fiancee, Molly Hurwitz.

The Friends star, 51, confirmed the news to People magazine.

“Sometimes things just don’t work out and this is one of them,” he said in a statement. “I wish Molly the best.”

According to the outlet, the actor and Hurwitz, 29, began dating in 2018 and became engaged in November 2020.

“I decided to get engaged,” Perry told People at the time. “Luckily, I happened to be dating the greatest woman on the face of the planet at this time.”

Perry got engaged to Hurwitz, pictured, in November last year.

Perry hadn’t shared a photo of Hurwitz on social media until December 2020 when he posted two photos of Hurwitz wearing his limited-edition apparel collection inspired by Friends to support COVID-19 relief.

“You don’t have to pose this way while wearing the shirt, but please feel free,” he captioned the first photo of the literary manager.

In the second photo, Hurwitz is wearing a hat with the slogan, “What is this, a baseball cap?” All the lines are inspired by Perry’s iconic character, Chandler Bing.

Thew news comes just weeks after a woman shared her experience of matching with Perry on exclusive dating app Raya. The video clip sees Perry flirting during a cringe-worthy snippet from a FaceTime chat they had after meeting on the same app.

“He was great,” Winston said on The Hollywood Reporter’s podcast “TV’s Top Five” recently. “People can sometimes just be unkind. I wish they weren’t. I loved working with him. He’s a brilliantly funny man and I thought he had some great one-liners in the show. I felt just happy and lucky to be in his presence and directing him on something like this.”
