Actress Shannen Doherty, known for her roles in Charmed and Beverly Hills 90210, died Saturday at age 53. He had been battling cancer for several years and kept his fans updated on his health.
“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 battling the disease for many years,” Doherty’s longtime publicist Leslie Sloan confirmed in a statement to the magazine. PEOPLE.
Doherty was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015, and in 2017, after going into remission, she revealed that the disease had returned.
“My cancer came back, and that’s why I’m here. I don’t think I’m over it yet. It’s a bitter pill to swallow in a lot of ways,” the actress told Good Morning America at the time.
Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Doherty moved to Los Angeles with her family at age 7 and became an actress shortly thereafter. She gained fame for her role as Brenda Walsh on the original Beverly Hills, 90210, which premiered in October 1990.
After the series won over audiences, Doherty joined the cast of Charmed as Prue Halliwell, the eldest of the three witch sisters. In addition to being the main character, she also directed several episodes.
