Julia Roberts marked Perry’s first high-profile girlfriend, a relationship that began while shooting an episode of Friends. In his memoir, the actor told the story of how Roberts signed up to guest star on the hit sitcom, noting that she was eager to be part of his character’s storyline.

Perry said that he went to New Mexico to ring in 1996 with her and met her family. “I did let her in, both figuratively and literally, and a relationship began,” the actor wrote. “We would already be a couple by the time we started filming the Friends Super Bowl episode.”

The two dated for a few months before Perry called it quits, much to Roberts’ surprise.

“Two months later, I was single,” Perry wrote. “Dating Julia Roberts had been too much for me. I had been constantly certain that she was going to break up with me. Why would she not? I was not enough; I could never be enough; I was broken, bent, unloveable.”

Matthew Perry and Lizzy Caplan

Perry’s longest relationship was with Mean Girls alum Lizzy Caplan, though they kept their relationship fairly quiet when they were dating. Though he doesn’t mention Caplan by name in his memoir, he mentioned that their romance began as “friends with benefits.” After six years together — and almost getting engaged — the couple separated in 2012.

He wrote that their breakup still haunts him to this day. “All my fears reared up like a snake,” he penned. “I often think if I’d asked [her to marry me], now we’d have two kids and a house. Instead, I’m some schmuck who’s alone in his house at fifty-three.”

Perry began dating literary manager Molly Hurwitz in 2018 and asked her to marry him in November 2020. “I decided to get engaged,” Perry told PEOPLE at the time. “Luckily, I happened to be dating the greatest woman on the face of the planet at this time.”

Despite Perry’s fame, the two kept a low-profile relationship. Hurwitz posted a sweet tribute on her private Instagram page in honor of Valentine’s Day in 2020. “Second year being my valentine, but his first as an Instagram influencer,” she wrote in reference to the actor’s massive following. “HVD to my favorite.”

Six months after, the actor popped the question while at a Switzerland rehab; however, the two called it quits for good in June 2021. “Sometimes things just don’t work out and this is one of them,” Perry said in a statement to PEOPLE. “I wish Molly the best.”
