Matthew Perry was unmarried and had no children at the time of his death, so many wondered what would happen to his finances. In March 2024, it was revealed by Us Weekly that the “Friends” actor had named Lisa Ferguson and Robin Ruzan as co-executors of his estate. Ruzan, an executive producer on “Celebrity Liar,” on which Perry starred, forfeited the responsibility. However, Ferguson, Perry’s business manager, took on the role of the executor. This doesn’t mean she obtains any of his assets, but she simply makes sure that what Perry detailed in important documents prior to his death is played out.
So, who is left with Perry’s assets? According to People, the “Fools Rush In” star kept it within the family. In his Alvy Singer Living Trust, his parents, John Perry and Suzanne Morrison, were named as beneficiaries. Matthew’s half-siblings, Caitlin Morrison and Rachel Dunn, were also listed as beneficiaries as well. Aside from this, the actor also reportedly noted in the documents that if he had kids, they would not have access to his estate.
Clearly, things are still unfolding when it comes to Matthew’s finances, will, trusts, and everything in between. And with how successful he was, it seems like it will take time for everything to be situated.
