MATTHEW PERRY’S PERSONAL WEALTH REVEALED AFTER DEATH - BUT $120MILLION STILL HELD IN TRUSTFUND
Last year, famed actor Matthew Perry tragically passed away at the age of 54.
The Friends star left behind a personal wealth worth more than $1.5 million (£1.2m), which is now part of an already-established trust valued at over $120 million (£94.4m), according to court documents.
Prior to his death, the globally-loved actor formed the "Alvy Singer Living Trust," inspired by Woody Allen's character from the film, Annie Hall. The beneficiaries include his father John Perry, mother Suzanne Morrison, half-sister Caitlin Morrison and former love interest, Rachel Dunn, with whom he had a brief relationship from 2003-2004 when she was merely 19. Dunn's current whereabouts remain largely unknown.
Now, latest court documents reviewed by The U.S Sun suggest Perry's personal assets were higher than initially projected. Lisa Ferguson, the trustee appointed for Perry's estate, submitted a document showing a balance exceeding $1,596,914.47 (£1,256,611.23) whilst admitting there's additional amount previously invested in the living trust.
Paperwork indicates Perry possessed no real property in California upon his demise. Notably, it has been confirmed that Perry's $6 million (£4.7m) Pacific Palisades home, where he spent his last moments, remains under Ferguson's name and is yet to be listed on the market.
Matthew was found dead at the age of 54 at his Los Angeles mansion last October. An autopsy determined his death was an accident from the acute effects of ketamine and the Los Angeles Police Department has confirmed to The Mirror they are investigating who supplied the actor with the drugs.
They are also looking into what circumstances Matthew was given the ketamine that killed him. Back in May, a source said Matthew's Friends co-stars are "still in shock" over his death and want to help the investigation.
Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox are said to have been "racking their brains" trying to recall people they might have seen with Matthew. However, the source told The Express: "It's a near-impossible task to try to figure out who might have been his private dealer or dealers."
They added: "Like the rest of the cast, Jen and Courteney have said they’ll do anything they can to help the task force find who was supplying him with such dangerous quantities of a potentially lethal drug." The source also said Matthew's Friends co-stars are worried the investigation could be like "looking for a needle in a haystack".
The LA County Medical Examiner's Office revealed in December that Matthew's death was drug related. The coroner's investigation into Matthew's cause of death revealed he had enough ketamine in his system to knock him unconscious for an operation.
The Medical Examiner's report also revealed that Perry had been prescribed ketamine as part of an infusion therapy treatment for depression and anxiety, and was taking it every other day. However, four months before his death, a new doctor tried to wean him off the drug.
The last time he was prescribed a dose of the drug was reportedly a week and a half before his death. The coroner noted that the ketamine in Matthew's system "could not be from that infusion therapy, since ketamine's half-life is three to four hours, or less."
