Explosive revelations suggest that Perry "threw a coffee table" at Hurwitz after she confronted him about infidelity in 202, Daily Mail reports. 

According to sources, Hurwitz and Perry ended their relationship in February 2021 after a huge fight on Valentine's Day.

At the time, Hurwitz allegedly dumped her then-fiance after she discovered he purchased a romantic gift for someone else he also met on Raya.

“He threw a coffee table at her and told her that she was crazy,” the source claimed to the outlet.

“He hated that she dumped him and he had terrible abandonment issues,” the source dished. 

The disturbing claims further state that Perry had an angry meltdown in March 2022, during which he shoved his live-in sober companion, Morgan Moses, into a wall and "threw her onto a bed."

Matthew Perry's death was reported to be a result of a ketamine overdose while in the hot tub at his Pacific Palisades home.

As the shocking allegations come to light, the internet reacts with mixed emotions, with many expressing support for Perry and urging others to let him rest in peace.
