“I am so grateful for every moment I had with you Matty and I miss you every day,” she wrote.
“When you work with someone as closely as I did with Matthew, there are thousands of moments I wish I could share. For now, here’s one of my favourites.
“To give a little backstory, Chandler and Monica were supposed to have a one-night fling in London. But because of the audience’s reaction, it became the beginning of their love story.
“In this scene, before we started rolling, he whispered a funny line for me to say. He often did things like that. He was funny and he was kind.”
Fans flocked to the comment section, writing about how much Chandler and Monica’s relationship meant to them.
“Courteney, you and Matty created the perfect love story, two friends in love. Thank you, thank you, and a thousand thanks for so many laughs, for so many moments, for creating a phenomenon like Friends, the six of them are and will be forever our BEST friends,” one person commented.
“I’m so sorry for your loss. we will never forget how much joy he brought us,” wrote another.
“I am forever grateful for that love story. It was the best. Thinking of the Friends cast and all of his family,” said another.

“Matthew. It is with a heavy heart I say goodbye,” he wrote.
“The times we had together are honestly among my favourite times of my life. It was an honour to share the stage with you and to call you my friend.
“I will always smile when I think of you and I’ll never forget you. Never. Spread your wings and fly brother you’re finally free. Much love. And I guess you’re keeping the 20 bucks you owe me.”
