Beloved actress Shannen Doherty has died at the age of 53 after years of living with breast cancer.

The 90210 star’s tragic death came just about a month after she confessed the past year was ‘really hard’ for her.

On Sunday, Doherty’s publicist Leslie Sloane confirmed the actor’s death.

‘It is with a heavy heart that I confirm the passing of actress Shannen Doherty. On Saturday, July 13, she lost her battle with cancer after many years of fighting the disease,’ Sloane told People.

 

‘The devoted daughter, sister, aunt and friend was surrounded by her loved ones as well as her dog, Bowie. The family asks for their privacy at this time so they can grieve in peace,’ Sloane added.

 

Doherty, who played Brenda Walsh in the hit 1990s show, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015.

Just two years later, the Charmed star revealed that the cancer had returned after going into remission.

 

At the time, she told Good Morning America: ‘It’s going to come out in a matter of days or a week that I’m stage 4. So my cancer came back, and that’s why I’m here.

‘I don’t think I’ve processed it. It’s a bitter pill to swallow in a lot of ways,’ she said.
Last year she announced that her cancer had spread to her brain in an Instagram post that showed her undergoing radiation therapy.

She teased a new episode of her podcast Let’s Be Clear by sharing a snippet on her official Instagram account

In October 1990, Doherty starred in the original Beverly Hills 90210, but left the series after the fourth season in 1994. She came back to the show as a guest star in 2008 after it rebooted.

Following the popular series, she went on to star in the witch drama, Charmed. Doherty played Prue Halliwell, the oldest of the three witch sisters.

After directing several episodes of Charmed, Doherty left the series in 2001. She then moved on to reality television, as a contestant on Dancing with the Stars and in the show Breaking Up with Shannen Doherty.

She joined the 2019 reboot of 90210 and played the adult version of Brenda Walsh.
