A second female celebrity has been connected to the investigation into Matthew Perry's drug-induced death, revealing their shared struggle with addiction.

The LAPD's investigation into Perry's fatal ketamine overdose has reportedly discovered the involvement of another friend, according to InTouch.

The unnamed woman, who allegedly claimed to be sober, was described by a source as a 'walking pharmacy'.

Reportedly, photo evidence has surfaced showing the woman with Perry at a doctor's office where he was being prescribed ketamine.

According to the source, the two would refer each other to their respective doctors to obtain the drug and often shared their struggles with addiction.

“'If the feds had either one of their phones — especially [the second celeb’s], because she doesn’t erase her text messages — they would probably find conversations about the drug and ‘How can I get extra?’ Like, it will not look good for the celebrity,” the source said.

The unnamed celebrity is the second to be connected to Perry's death, following the naming of Charlie Sheen's ex-wife, Brooke Mueller.

Perry was discovered unresponsive in the hot tub of his Los Angeles home on October 28, 2023, and passed away at the age of 54.

His autopsy revealed that he died from the 'acute effects of ketamine' and drowning, with the actor having ketamine levels in his system comparable to those of a hospital patient under general anesthesia.

The actor had previously been open about undergoing ketamine infusion therapy to treat his depression.

However, his last ketamine session was a week and a half before he died, and since ketamine stays in the system for only three to four hours, it did not directly cause his death.
