Matthew Perry is survived by his father John Bennett Perry, mother Suzanne Morrison, and stepfather Keith Morrison, per People. John and Suzanne separated less than a year after Matthew was born, with Suzanne then marrying Keith in 1981. In spite of Suzanne and John’s split, the actor’s parents came together to support their son. During Matthew’s 2018 hospitalization for an exploded colon, his parents were right there with him. “They were both standing at the edge of my bed,” he told Diane Sawyer on ABC News. “I was like, ‘Whoa, I must be really sick for this to be happening.”
John, Suzanne, and Keith headed to Matthew’s home hours after his death, per Page Six. Photos shared by the outlet showed the star’s loved ones in the car, appearing solemn and depleted. Just days before his death, Matthew took to Instagram to share a sweet snap of him and his dad. John was all smiles, with Matthew captioning the photo, “Here is me, and my father John, both holding a beverage.”
