hanacantik"Matthew Perry was accompanied by a female friend on Thursday morning as he stepped out for coffee in Los Angeles".

That sentence is good English.

It is passive voice, simple past tense.

1. Matthew Perry was accompanied by a female friend.

Here is the same sentence but in active voice, simple past tense.
