Matt Charlie Sheen alleges that he had suspicions about Matthew Perry's sobriety a year prior to his shocking demise

In a recent interview on Piers Morgan's show, "Piers Morgan Uncensored", Emmy nominee Charlie Sheen shared his thoughts on the late Matthew Perry's memoir, "Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing".

Sheen, who released his own memoir, "The Book of Sheen", last week, expressed admiration for Perry's book but also felt inspired to speak out about his concerns. He claimed to have noticed signs of drug abuse during Perry's 2022 memoir promotion.

"Matthew's book was a powerful read, but there were moments that made me question his sobriety," Sheen said. He went on to explain that Perry "wasn't sober" at the time and that he suspected Perry was still struggling with drug use.

Tragically, Perry's fears were confirmed when he was found dead in his Los Angeles home's hot tub in October of the following year. The cause of death was a ketamine overdose.

Sheen did not reach out to Perry to discuss the memoir before Perry's death, but he did express his condolences and shared that he felt really bad for Perry after listening to the audiobook.

Sheen did not have a close relationship with Perry, but he did attend a support group run by Perry a few times. He also heard a man who was handicapped during the audiobook, which further raised concerns about Perry's health.

Brook Mueller, Perry's third ex-wife, became embroiled in Perry's death investigation due to her connection with people charged with selling ketamine to Perry. As of September 2024, Mueller was nine months sober.

For those struggling with similar issues, a helpline number is available: 1-800-662-HELP (4357). It's important to remember that seeking help is a crucial step in the journey to recovery.

In memory of Matthew Perry, let's continue to support each other and spread awareness about the dangers of substance abuse.
