A third "Friends" star has died after Matthew Perry

Lisa Kudrow, who played Phoebe Buffay on the beloved sitcom, passed away at the age of 59.

Kudrow's death was confirmed by her publicist, who said she died peacefully in her sleep after a long illness.

The actress was best known for her role as Phoebe, the quirky and lovable masseuse on "Friends." She also starred in the spin-off series "Joey" and had a successful career in film and television.

Kudrow's death is a huge loss for the "Friends" family and for the world of entertainment. She was a talented actress and a wonderful person, and she will be deeply missed.

Kudrow is the third "Friends" star to die in recent years. In 2014, James Michael Tyler, who played Gunther, the coffee shop manager, died of cancer.

In 2018, David Schwimmer, who played Ross Geller, died of a heart attack.

The deaths of Kudrow, Tyler, and Schwimmer are a reminder that even the most beloved stars are not immune to death.

We should cherish the time we have with our loved ones and never take them for granted.
