LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Shannen Doherty has currently been going through a difficult time. The ‘Fortress’ star recently posted about her struggles on her Instagram, which shook her fans. She revealed that her cancer has now spread to her brain. Earlier in 2020, she reportedly shared about her stage 4 breast cancer diagnosis.
Doherty’s Instagram clip showed her amid a medical scan. She wrote in the caption, “January 12, 2023. On January 5th, my ct scan showed Mets in my brain. My fear is obvious. I am extremely claustrophobic and there was a lot going on in my life. I am fortunate as I have great doctors like Dr Amin Mirahdi and the amazing techs at cedar sinai. But that fear…. The turmoil….. the timing of it all…. This is what cancer can look like.”

‘I was desperately trying to grow up’
But there was a time when Doherty was on top of the television world. She was an integral part of ‘Beverly Hills, 90210’ as she played the main character of the series, Brenda Walsh. The show also featured Tori Spelling as Donna Martin, Jennie Garth as Kelly Taylor, and Luke Perry as Dylan McKay. However, after four seasons of the teen drama, the 52-year-old star was booted.
In 2020, Doherty spoke with Entertainment Weekly and shared her reasons for leaving the show. She said, “There was definitely a time that I did not want to be there. I was unhappy. It sounds odd to say that I was on a hit show making a lot of money and I was unhappy, because it makes me sound unappreciative — I wasn’t. It’s just that the sacrifice at the time seemed too large to me.”
“The sacrifice of a camera pointed in my face 24 hours a day while I was desperately trying to grow up, to figure out my spirituality, to figure out my boyfriends. I mean, I was a teenager,” she added. However, there was apparently more to the story.
Was Tori Spelling behind Shannen Doherty’s exit?
In 2015, Tori appeared on the Lifetime special ‘Celebrity Lie Detector’ where she disclosed that she told her father, Aaron Spelling, who was an executive producer and creator of ‘Beverly Hills, 9021’ to make Doherty leave the show. She also explained that she took the step after Doherty and Garth’s fights were getting out of hand on the set.
However, eventually, she regretted it too. She added, “I felt like I was a part of something ... a movement ... that cost someone their livelihood. Was she a horrible person? No — she was one of the best friends I ever had.”
Aaron also presented his side for making Doherty leave the show. He reportedly said, “It wasn’t like she ruined the show or anything. It just upset the cast members tremendously. I remember them calling me and saying, ‘Please, can’t you get her here on time?’” Besides, Charles Rosin, former exec producer, added, “She had habitual lateness. Her lateness was appalling, and she had a callous attitude and indifference. She was clearly not very happy on this show anymore.”
