Matthew Perry’s official death certificate has been revealed.
The star, who died away last month after being discovered in a spa pool at his Los Angeles home, was buried on Friday at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Hollywood Hills.
Now his death certificate, obtained by The Blast, has revealed that his official cause of death is being deferred pending toxicology reports, which may take weeks to determine, reports the Daily Mail.
The certificate also lists Perry’s industry as “entertainment” and his stepfather Keith Morrison as the “informant” who handed over the information for the document.
While the Friends alum’s cause of death is still unknown, initial toxicology reports revealed there was no meth or fentanyl in his system when he is thought to have drowned.
More in-depth testing is being carried out and will hopefully show if the beloved star had any prescription medication in his body when he died.
When police searched Perry’s home, they found no illegal drugs, but they did find prescription medication, properly labelled and stored in bottles.
Perry had been candid about his lifelong battle with drugs and alcohol over the past few years.
He was addicted to the painkiller Vicodin for years, even while he was filming Friends, and had been in and out of rehab during peak stardom.
Perry reflected on the painful chapter of his life in his memoir, released last year. In Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing: A Memoir, he detailed his struggles throughout his career, such as his evident weight fluctuations on the show.
In several interviews during his press tour for the book, Perry got incredibly emotional about his public substance abuse struggles.
Those close to the star maintain that Perry was clean and sober at the time of his death.
