It’s the one where Chandler and Monica—sorry, Molly—get engaged. Matthew Perry has confirmed that he proposed to his long-time girlfriend Molly Hurwitz, and she accepted. Could they be any more in love?Perry released a statement to People and confirmed that he had popped the question. “I decided to get engaged," said Perry. "Luckily, I happened to be dating the greatest woman on the face of the planet at this time.” It’s unclear whether Perry proposed in a room filled with candles while his best friends waited outside the door, but that’s just how we're going to picture it.The 51-year-old actor has been dating Hurwitz since 2018, but there were rumors that the couple split earlier this year in May. Around the same time, Perry posted an Instagram message with the caption “Why is today especially hard???” It’s possible the couple were on a break, or it’s possible that Perry was referencing literally anything that has happened this year. According to InTouch, Hurwitz has been a good influence on Perry, who has struggled with his sobriety. It’s unclear when the couple reconciled, but we are happy to hear any good news in 2020.Hurwitz works as a literary and talent manager for Zero Gravity Management and specializes in broadcast sitcoms. If the 29-year-old producer ever has any questions about how to make one of the most successful sitcoms of all time, she’s got a great resource in her fiancé.According to People, Hurwitz celebrated her relationship with Perry earlier this year in an Instagram post on Valentine’s Day. Referencing her actor boyfriend's recent decision to join social media, Hurwitz posted on her private account, writing “Second year being my valentine, but his first as an Instagram influencer. HVD to my favorite.”Hurwitz confirmed the couple’s relationship in late 2019, once again referencing Perry on her private social media account and calling him her boyfriend. “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!!!,” joked Hurwitz.Perry has been linked to several successful actors throughout his career. The Odd Couple actor enjoyed short relationships with Julia Roberts, Neve Campbell, Yasmine Bleeth and Lauren Graham. He dated former fashion student Rachel Dunn for two years and was later linked to actor Lizzy Caplan from 2006 until 2012.In November, Perry confirmed that the highly-anticipated Friends reunion would likely premiere in March 2021. “Friends reunion being rescheduled for the beginning of March,” wrote Perry in a tweet on November 12. “Looks like we have a busy year coming up. And that’s the way I like it!”The reunion was announced last February and was originally scheduled to air in May. That date was pushed to August once the pandemic hit and now it looks as though fans may finally get to see their six favourite Friends together once again in the new year. Set to air on HBO Max, the reunion will take place in front of a live studio audience to honor the original beloved sitcom. While this is great news for fans who get to see the show in person, it does mean that it has been logistically difficult to film the special in the time of COVID.[video_embed id='2076750']Before you go: ‘Friends’ reunion special rescheduled for March 2021[/video_embed]
