Matthew Perry is engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Molly Hurwitz. The "Friends" star, who has never been married, shared the news to People in a report published Thursday.
"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."
Perry, 51, and Hurwtiz, 29, began dating in 2018. Rumors of a relationship emerged in November last year when they were spotted together outside a restaurant in West Hollywood, according to Daily Mail. Not long after, Hurwitz, who works as a literary manager, confirmed their relationship to her private Instagram account.
"According to my parents' custody agreement, my mother was not allowed to have a Christmas tree... Fortunately, there's no such agreement for a daughter's boyfriend, so Hurwitz gets a treeeeeeee!!!," she captioned a photo of herself and Perry, per the outlet.
In February she posted a Valentine's message for Perry, poking fun at his decision to finally join Instagram.
"Second year being my valentine, but his first as an Instagram influencer," she captioned a photo of Perry asleep on the couch, cuddling a yellow smiling face balloon.
In addition to wedding planning, Perry is busy gearing up for the long awaited "Friends" reunion show, which was scheduled for March this year but was put on hold due to the coronavirus. Earlier this month the actor revealed that filming for the reunion special is now scheduled for March 2021.
"Friends reunion being rescheduled for the beginning of March," Perry tweeted. "Looks like we have a busy year coming up."
