Matthew Perry was found unconscious in a hot tub at his Los Angeles home by first responders. They were unable to revive him.LOS ANGELES – Matthew Perry, one of the stars of smash hit TV sitcom Friends, was found dead at his home Saturday, US media reported. He was 54.

A fire department spokesman confirmed it had responded to a “water emergency”, which could refer to a “pool, spa, bathtub or fountain”, but could not confirm reports that Perry had drowned. During the height of his success, Perry battled for years with addiction to painkillers and alcohol, and attended rehabilitation clinics on multiple occasions.

He wrote: “People would be surprised to know that I have mostly been sober since 2001. Save for about 60 or 70 little mishaps over the years.” His mother is a Canadian journalist who once served as press secretary to former Canadian prime minister Pierre Trudeau. His father is a US actor.
