FRIENDS star Matthew Perry once glued his hands to his knees in a bid to stop taking more drugs, an ex revealed.
Kayti Edwards, 47, dated the late actor — Chandler Bing in the show — in 2006.
She also worked as his assistant in 2011 at the height of his drug addiction and they remained friends until his death.
She recalled: “I was at Matthew’s place in the Hollywood Hills. He was in a bad way.
“He had been getting high all night on a plethora of drugs, most likely crack cocaine and other substances.

“I found Matthew on the couch with his hands superglued to his legs — it was desperately sad. I had to use nail polish remover and olive oil to free him.”
“We were literally ripping the hair from his legs and he had red, raw patches left behind, it was pretty horrific.
The troubled actor died aged 54 in October with an autopsy finding he succumbed to the “acute effects” of ketamine.
Kayti — granddaughter of British film icon Julie Andrews — said: “Matthew always had major drug problems.
“Even when he was clean and going through rehab, he was still thinking about taking drugs.
“He would say, ‘Let’s go get some cocaine. What do you think about that? Ha, I’m just joking’.
“But I would say, ‘Let’s go get some lunch instead’.”
Kayti previously told The Sun on Sunday she suspected Matthew had relapsed prior to his death in Pacific Palisades, LA.
