Matthew Perry, 51, gets engaged to ‘greatest woman on planet’ Molly Hurwitz, 29

Matthew Perry is engaged!

The Friends legend, 51, revealed he got down on one knee in front of girlfriend Molly Hurwitz, who said yes.

Sharing his joy with People magazine, Matthew branded her "the greatest woman on the face of the planet."

"I decided to get engaged," he said, "Luckily, I happened to be dating the greatest woman on the face of the planet at this time."

Literary manager Molly confirmed they were a couple with a Valentine's Day post.

"Second year being my valentine, but his first as an Instagram influencer," she wrote in the post.

"HVD to my favorite,' she wrote to Matthew to celebrate the holiday."

They struck up a romance in 2018, and are thought to have spent the holidays together last year.

Matthew is rumoured to have dated a string of big names in the past, including Yasmine Bleeth and Julia Roberts, the latter of whom had a fleeting role in Friends.

Meanwhile, it seems Matthew's role of a lifetime on the US comedy will never leave him amid a flurry of fan speculation about when we'll get to see the much-anticipated reunion show.

And Matthew issued a very appreciated update recently, letting fans know that despite the pandemic, the episode will be filmed in March 2021.

Due to start filming in August this year, the reunion will bring together again the original cast of Matthew, Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt Le Blanc and David Schwimmer.

"Friends reunion being rescheduled for the beginning of March," Matthew tweeted earlier this month.

"Looks like we have a busy year coming up. And that's the way I like it!"
