Charlie Sheen<\/strong><\/a> is opening up about Matthew Perry<\/strong><\/a> in a way that has left fans stunned.<\/p>\n

In a new interview, Sheen revealed that he believed Perry was not sober while promoting his 2022 memoir, \u201cFriends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cTwo and a Half Men\u201d star said he could hear signs of struggle in Perry\u2019s voice even as the \u201cFriends\u201d actor spoke publicly about recovery. His remarks have reignited questions about Perry\u2019s final months before his untimely death.<\/p>\n

Charlie Sheen Believed Matthew Perry ‘Wasn\u2019t Sober’<\/h2>\n

During a September 16 chat with Piers Morgan on \u201cPiers Morgan Uncensored<\/a>,\u201d Charlie Sheen said he noticed troubling signs while listening to Perry\u2019s book tour.<\/p>\n

\u201cI could tell he wasn\u2019t sober, talking about a book that is all about sobriety and recovery,\u201d the 60-year-old explained.<\/p>\n

He admitted that hearing the late actor promote a story of healing while sounding unwell struck him as deeply sad, and made him feel very bad for Perry.<\/p>\n

Sheen recalled hearing an audiobook clip and described how Perry\u2019s voice no longer had the same sharp delivery he was known for.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I heard a little snippet from the audio book, he didn\u2019t have that perfect, specific, laser focused diction that he always had, delivering comedy or anything at the level that he did. So I could hear a man who was \u2026 handicapped,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Although Sheen admitted he and Perry were never particularly close, he said the memoir left a powerful impression on him.<\/p>\n

He explained that he read the book in a single day and described himself as \u201cso proud of him and inspired by it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sheen also noted that Perry had referenced him in the memoir, writing, \u201cEff Charlie Sheen and I\u2019m going to be that famous one day too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reflecting on that connection, Sheen told Morgan that he thought about reaching out but ultimately didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen I wanted to reach out, you know, because I\u2019m in his book \u2026 And I didn\u2019t. I think he died, like, three weeks after I read the book.\u201d<\/p>\n

Looking back, the \u201cPlatoon\u201d star said he wished he had shared his support and personal experiences with Perry, even if it couldn\u2019t have changed the outcome.<\/p>\n

For Sheen, the tragedy hit close to home. The actor has battled his own addiction struggles for decades, a story he has chronicled in his upcoming memoir, \u201cThe Book of Sheen.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said his perspective made him particularly sensitive to Matthew Perry\u2019s condition.<\/p>\n

\u201cI could feel that sort of the prison that he, you know, put himself in,\u201d he said, acknowledging the pain of addiction.<\/p>\n

While he never made the call to the 54-year-old, Sheen hopes his honesty will help others understand the brutal reality behind addiction and sobriety.<\/p>\n

Perry was found unresponsive in the hot tub of his Los Angeles home on October 28, 2023, and was later pronounced dead.<\/p>\n

A toxicology report released in December revealed he died from \u201cacute effects of ketamine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Investigators discovered Perry had been undergoing ketamine infusions as treatment for anxiety and depression, but the last official treatment had been more than a week before his death.<\/p>\n

This discrepancy triggered a deeper investigation into how the fatal dose was obtained.<\/p>\n

In August 2024, prosecutors brought federal charges against five individuals in connection to Perry\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

The charges included \u201cconspiracy to distribute ketamine causing death,\u201d a shocking revelation that rocked Hollywood and Perry\u2019s fans around the world.<\/p>\n

The ‘Ketamine Queen’ Pleads Guilty<\/h2>\n

One of those charged was Jasveen Sangha, infamously nicknamed the \u201cKetamine Queen.\u201d<\/p>\n

As The Blast<\/a> reported, she admitted to supplying the ketamine that led to Matthew Perry\u2019s fatal overdose. She faces up to 65 years in prison, with sentencing scheduled for December 2025.<\/p>\n

Sangha was part of a network that included Dr. Salvador Plasencia and Dr. Mark Chavez, both of whom have also pleaded guilty to distributing ketamine to Perry.<\/p>\n

The investigation revealed that the Hollywood icon had been using ketamine legally for depression treatment but sought more than prescribed, leading to his tragic death.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the situation, Richard Taite, the founder of Carrara treatment and a leader in celebrity rehab care, said that he wasn\u2019t shocked, but he was \u201cangry.\u201d<\/p>\n

He explained that addiction was a daily battle for many, adding that people didn\u2019t need a dealer, making it worse.<\/p>\n

According to Taite, celebrities were especially vulnerable to predatory dealers, noting, \u201cFor the average person, drugs are about availability. For celebrities, they\u2019re about secrecy.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that a dealer was often the \u201ctrusted source,\u201d but really, they were the most dangerous people in the room.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
