Tori Spelling Recalls Devastating Moment She Learned Of Shannen Doherty’s Passing; Says The Late Actress ‘Will Live On In Her Work’

Tori Spelling remembers Shannen Doherty as an ‘inspiration’ for others; Says ‘she’ll live on in her work’

As an ardent admirer, I’d express it like this: “Doherty was a beacon of hope for countless individuals across the globe who were battling cancer or any other affliction, much as she bravely faced her own. Her friend, Spelling, shared that Doherty offered inspiration and the strength to persist during those moments when one felt utterly drained. I consider myself incredibly blessed to have witnessed, at close range, the profound impact Doherty had on others.”

When they initially crossed paths at 15, during the filming of Beverly Hills, 90210’s pilot, Doherty showed the actress kindness and support. Their friendship faltered at certain points in their lives, but eventually, they reconciled and remained on friendly terms. The actress looked back on her friend with appreciation, remarking that “She will continue to shine through her career achievements and in the hearts of those who knew and cherished her.”

A notable actress from Beverly Hills, 90210 passed away from cancer earlier this month after bravely battling the illness since 2015. In 2017, she shared joyful news of remission, but unfortunately, the cancer came back in 2020 as an advanced stage four condition. Despite her deteriorating health, she remained dedicated to her projects, including her podcast Let’s Be Clear.

15th July marked two days since Shannen Doherty passed away. On Instagram, Tori Spelling paid tribute to her late friend, describing her as a pioneer who bravely stood tall in an era when many women felt they couldn’t. Tori emphasized that Doherty didn’t intentionally rebel; instead, she was simply a natural-born trailblazer.
