The Friends<\/em> creatives are reflecting on their final conversations with Matthew Perry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday’s episode of Today<\/em>, Marta Kauffman<\/strong> and David Crane<\/strong>, the creators of the hit sitcom, revealed details of their final interactions with the late actor — just two weeks before his death. Marta told host Hoda Kotb<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was great. He was happy and chipper. He didn\u2019t seem weighed down by anything. He was in a really good place, which is why this seems so unfair.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added that she was in \u201cutter shock\u201d when she heard about his unfortunate death, explaining:<\/p>\n

\u201cMy first impulse was to text him, honestly. And then, deep sadness. So much sadness. It\u2019s hard to grasp, you know, one minute he\u2019s here and happy and then poof. And doing good in the world, really doing good in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

David then responded to an old quote of Matthew\u2019s, where the Fools Rush In<\/em> actor theorized people would be \u201cshocked\u201d to hear of his passing, \u201cbut not surprised.\u201d To that, he said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s probably true. Given the journey he\u2019d been on, and we were all aware of it, there was always a part that was kind of bracing for something like this. It is still hard to believe because he was such a sort of alive person, that it\u2019s hard to believe that he\u2019s not here.\u201d<\/p>\n

So devastating.<\/p>\n

Marta added that she always worried for Matthew amid his struggle with addiction, but that when she last spoke to him he appeared to be in a good place:<\/p>\n

\u201cHe seemed better than I had seen in a while. I was so thrilled to see that. He was emotionally in a good place, he looked good, he quit smoking.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also added he was, indeed, \u201csober\u201d at that point, and that with his death, she \u201clost a friend.\u201d Watch the full interview (below):<\/p>\n
