Courteney Cox has shared a moving tribute to her \u201ckind\u201d and \u201cfunny\u201d Friends co-star Matthew Perry<\/a> following his death at the age of 54<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cox, who played Chandler Bing\u2019s true love Monica Geller in the NBC sitcom<\/a>, shared a clip on Instagram<\/a> of the pair from the season four episode The One with Ross\u2019s Wedding, where the duo embark upon their romantic relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n

She wrote alongside in the caption:<\/span>\u00a0\u201cI am so grateful for every moment I had with you Matty and I miss you every day.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you work with someone as closely as I did with Matthew, there are thousands of moments I wish I could share. For now here\u2019s one of my favourites.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Writing about the scene shown in the clip, Cox continued: \u201cTo give a little backstory, Chandler and Monica were supposed to have a one night fling in London. But because of the audience\u2019s reaction, it became the beginning of their love story.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn this scene, before we started rolling, he whispered a funny line for me to say. <\/span>He often did things like that. He was funny and he was kind.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

On Tuesday (14th November), Matt LeBlanc became the first of his Friends co-stars to share a personal tribute to the late Perry<\/a>, saying \u201cit <\/span>was an honour to share the stage with you and to call you my friend\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

He added on Instagram<\/a>: \u201cIt is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favourite times of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n

The main Friends stars had previously issued a joint statement paying tribute to Perry, with the actors writing:\u00a0<\/span>\u201cWe are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe were more than just castmates. We are a family. There is so much to say, but right now we\u2019re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn time we will say more, as and when we are able. For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty\u2019s family, his friends and everyone who loved him around the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p> <\/body><\/html>\n
