A devoted fan of the show Friends, Jelena Djokovic often turned to it for comfort, especially during nervous anticipation at events like the U.S. Open, where she cheered fervently for her husband, Novak Djokovic. Notably, among the six beloved characters, it was Ross Geller who captured Jelena’s heart.

In a heartfelt Instagram post, Jelena Djokovic shared her profound sadness over the passing of a beloved actor. Jelena is well known for finding solace in the iconic American sitcom ‘Friends.’ She revealed how the news about Mathew Perry struck a chord deep within her and how much she will miss dear Chandler.

Jelena needs F.R.I.E.N.D.S. to support Novak Djokovic

Jelena is a pillar of strength for Djokovic and plays a massive role in tennis. She took to Instagram to pay her respects to a cherished actor whose presence had touched her life in more ways than one. Having delved into his book earlier this year, Jelena reflected on the profound connection the actor had with the complexities of life. Perry always seemed to teeter on the edge of pain and sorrow.

For Jelena, finding solace in the world of television has been a cherished ritual. Specifically, one show has held a special place in her heart – ‘F.R.I.E.N.D.S.’ The classic American sitcom is known for its humor, heart, and a delightful ensemble cast. The show has been a source of comfort for Jelena for years. It served as a trusted companion during the nail-biting moments when she would step into the stands to support her husband during his matches. She said: “I’ve read his book at the beginning of this year. He was always too close to death with hurt and pain. Way too many incredible actors who brought laughter to our lives were depressed and hurting inside. Way too many.” This deep emotional connection to ‘Friends’ has transcended time. Jelena confessed that Perry’s memory will continue to reside in her home, a daily reminder of his impact on her life for the past 15 years. She wrote: “He’ll live in my house forever. Daily. It’s been like that for the last 15 years.”
