Coworkers recall Shannen Doherty, reflecting on their shared experiences with the actress. - Proposal for a Commission Directive has yet to be approved
On the first anniversary of Shannen Doherty's passing, her close friends and costars paid tribute to the beloved actress, who passed away on July 13, 2024, at the age of 53. Doherty, known for her iconic roles in "Beverly Hills, 90210" and "Charmed", had died after a long battle with breast cancer.
Sarah Michelle Gellar, Doherty's close friend for over 30 years despite never acting together, shared a poignant video montage of their time together set to "See You Again" by Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth. Gellar had been a steady support for Doherty throughout her illness and often posted videos of their moments together.
Tori Spelling, a longtime "Beverly Hills, 90210" castmate, likewise joined in remembering Doherty’s impact and presence in their lives, as did Rose McGowan and Holly Marie Combs—Doherty's "Charmed" co-star—who expressed how deeply she is missed by friends, family, and fans alike.
Fans also flooded Doherty's last Instagram post from June 2024 with messages of love and remembrance. Many noted how much she is missed and celebrated her enduring legacy both on and off screen. Doherty's publicist confirmed her death in July 2024, highlighting she was surrounded by loved ones and her dog at the time.
In the past year, Tori Spelling mentioned that she said "no" more often, because Doherty would have, and noted that Doherty taught her to activate her strength and let it shine. Holly Marie Combs used the hashtag "#ShandoSunday" to honor Doherty, while Rose McGowan shared tribute posts on her Instagram stories.
Shannen Doherty, who was married three times in her personal life, reprised her role as Brenda Walsh for the "Beverly Hills, 90210" spin-off "90210" in 2009. She passed away after a new round of chemotherapy, following her diagnosis with breast cancer in 2015 and later metastasis to her brain and bones.
The tributes from her Hollywood friends and family on this anniversary reflect the strong bonds Doherty forged in her career and personal life, as well as the lasting impression she made as an actress and advocate throughout her courageous battle with cancer.
I'm not gonna let Shannen Doherty's impact on entertainment and pop-culture, as a celebrated actress and advocate, get away with just being remembered on her anniversary. I'm not gonna let Shannen Doherty's contributions to television shows like "Beverly Hills, 90210" and "Charmed" be forgotten as time passes.
