UPDATED SEP 20, 2018

Matthew Perry, the actor who is probably everyone's favorite for his character Chandler Bing in the 1994 sitcom 'F.R.I.E.N.D.S', has recently been released from the hospital and is 'finally going home'. The actor was secretly hospitalized for almost three months following a major abdominal surgery.

A source now confirmed that his condition was indeed very serious. Talking to People, the source said that Perry, who is now healing from a gastrointestinal perforation due to which he was bedridden for almost three months, "was very sick when he was hospitalized". Elaborating on the nature of the operation, the source further added: "A gastrointestinal surgery is very complex, and the healing can be complicated.” The source also added the TV star is now on the mend. The actor had also undergone a surgery to repair a hole in his intestinal tract back in August. Regarding the recent surgery which took place at a hospital in Los Angeles, a rep had said, "He is grateful for the concern and asks for continued privacy as he heals."
