Julia Roberts & Matthew Perry’s tragic love story: Julia Roberts told Friends producers she would guest star in the show under the condition she be included in Chandler Bing’s storyline. Hearing this, Perry sent her “three dozen red roses and the card read, ‘The only thing more exciting than the prospect of you doing the show is that I finally have an excuse to send you flowers.’” Roberts responded by sending him “lots and lots of bagels.” The two then embarked on what Perry calls a “three-month courtship” through daily faxes. “Three or four times a day I would sit by my fax machine and watch the piece of paper slowly revealing her next missive,” Perry writes. “I was so excited that some nights I would find myself out at some party sharing a flirtatious exchange with an attractive woman and cut the conversation short so I could race home and see if a new fax had arrived. Nine times out of ten, one had.” By the time they shot the Super Bowl episode, they were already a couple. But two months into the romance, Perry broke up with the actress. “Dating Julia Roberts had been too much for me. I had been constantly certain that she was going to break up with me. Why would she not? I was not enough; I could never be enough; I was broken, bent, unlovable,” he writes. “So instead of facing the inevitable agony of losing her, I broke up with the beautiful and brilliant Julia Roberts.” After their breakup, Matthew developed a dr*g addiction and although they’ve separated, Julia offered her help to him Matthew Perry has passed away on Julia Roberts’ birthday.
