“Although no one wants to believe it was medication — prescribed or not — of course that is a thought in their minds,” a source close to Kudrow and her castmates told the Daily Mail.
“They are thinking he must have taken something that did not mix with the warm water.”
The insider went on to say that his death has hit the cast hard, adding that Kudrow “might even adopt his dog” Alfred.
“This does not seem real or fair to her or any of the gang, because Matthew was finally at peace with himself and was having the best year of his life since his book launch almost exactly one year ago. He was enjoying life,” the source continued.
