Shannen Doherty, '90210' and 'Charmed' actress, dead at 53 

My mom died of cancer at 55, my sister of cancer at 56, my mom's nephew at 55, my aunt at 60, my other cousin at 56, and my baby sister died at 50. While we tend to live longer these days, we're also dying younger. Treasure each day.

A very sad ending for her and Luke Perry. You will be missed. RIP

53 is crazy young

This is so sad. RIP Shannen. Admired the way she was sharing her cancer story. She was a very brave lady and talented actress.

So sad She fought a hard battle. Rest in peace 🙏 💔

Shannon Doherty 53 Shelley Duvall 75 Richard Simmons 76 Dr. Ruth Westheimer 96 RIP 🙏🏻🕯️🕊️🦋

Wow! My heart goes out to her and her family. After just now hearing her story, it was an exact replay of my late wife, Rebecca. It started with both breasts, went away, and came back 3 years later with a vengeance, and then the cancer attacked the brain. She battle cancer for 11 years. ❤

I was diagnosed with MDS at 28 I’m 32 Still fighting My heart is with her family It’s not easy

From Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Heathers, Beverly Hills 90210, Charmed...to our hearts. RIP Ms. Doherty 💖💖

I'm Italian and I live in Italy, my generation grew up with the myth of Beverly Hills and Shannen was the face, the representation of all this. her smile and her determination will never fade. Thank you Shannen for giving us dreams, beauty and hope❤

A bunch of celebs have passed away recently rest in peace ms Doherty 💔

R.I.P. Shannen

Shannen was a strong woman as she fought, against her cancer and much as she could. As she never lets the cancer bring her down, she just kept on fighting until the end. Salute to her, she will be miss.

This is a tragedy, she was loved by millions and a brilliant actress

She really was a Class Act. She faced her battle like a Princess. RIP SHANNEN!!!

Cancer sucks! So sad to hear this & yes, 53 IS too young... She was such a brave warrior for so long... 💔

Loved Her In Beverly Hills 90210. Going To Miss Her 😢😢😢😢💔💔💔

Very sad. She was a feisty, independent, and talented soul gone too soon.

She fought like a warrior. She brought do mych awareness and helped more people than she'd ever know. May her nemory be a blessing. 💔

She’s in a much better place now. No more suffering for her RIP

Rest In Peace SHANNEN🙏👼

I am now in stage 4 ovarian cancer. I go back into treatment at the end of the week for my 3rd recurrence It’s really hard to hold back the tears this morning. She gave other cancer patients so much hope with her bravery. This brave lady gave me some hope! Rest in peace, Shannen! Thank you for sharing your journey! I am so happy that you reached a special place where Cancer can no longer taint your sweet little soul. 🩱🎗️

This is so sad, she was my favourite actress, beautiful strong and she loved and cared for animals, Rip Shannen 🙏

She had an attitude when she was younger that I did not like. But with age and hardship came grace. I admire that. She’ll be missed.

RIP. She really grew in a good way and FAST when she got sick. The diagnosis was terrible obviously, but it seemed to come with a lot of grace and maturity for her as well. Respect.

CONDOLENCES GO OUT TO HER FAMILY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS R.I.P 🕊 🙏🏼

R.I.P. Shannen. Way too young. 53 is still young. She was apart of my generation, even though I'm 5 years younger than she was. At least she gave up most of her worldly things, and decided to get closer to her mother. She knew her time was short. People shouldnt wait till they know death is knocking at their door. Tomorrow is never promised.

I'm devastated First Luke Perry now Shannen Doherty May they both RIP 💔🥀

She fought bravely for a long time. RIP

So many stars has passed away recently ❤

I lost all three of my sisters to cancer. I'm sorry she had to go through this.

RIP Shannen Doherty. 😢

Ohhhhhhh noooooo. Her and Luke Perry have reunited once again.

So sorry. 😔

Today's kids have no idea just how iconic BH 90210 was to my generation. It was the "IT" show. I watched BH because of Shannen Doherty and stopped watching when she left the show. That was the impact Shannen had on me. She was a brilliant actor. She drew you into her character. Time is so cruel. Rest Easy, Shannen~! Thank you for our memories of the good old days.

I lost my whole family- dad, mom, brother in just 7 years! Thinking of going after them every day, but trying to stay strong for my husband and my kids. Be strong, Shannon’s Mom! Hopefully, we will see each other again 🙏🏻❤️‍🩹🥲

R.I.P. she never gave up hope. I lost my stepmother to cancer 13 tears ago. 😢😢

So sad...I loved Shannen. She was one of my brunette heroes when I was younger. We will miss you, pretty lady.

RIP pretty lady !!

Thats sad. 53 is young.

She fought so hard for so long ❤❤❤. May she now be at peace with no more pain.

Rest In Peace Pru! My number 1 Charmed girl😢

May she rest in peace , I'm in tears ... the sad thing about this is that Alyssa felt the need to take her from her role in charmed and from the fans who loved her.... she was my favorite then piper... In the end she was at peace with it , you would be missed 😭😭

I can’t believe she passed away, she was so young. I grew up watching her on little house, 90210 and so many other projects. She was a great actress. May she rest in peace

Always thought she was *so fine...* 💔😔🌷

Rip Prudence. I’m going to binge on some Charmed today.

How ironic that it started with breast cancer and there was an episode of 90210 where she had to have a biopsy done on a lump in her breast. She was scared so her mom went with her and eventually the biopsy came back clear with no cancer present. It was done as a way to get women and teens to do self breast exams and get their mammograms done every year. Just another one of those weird and bizarre coincidences in films and tv that foreshadows the future. RIP Shannen you're out of pain now and hopefully watching over your friends and family.😢

Peace - Oh I AM SO SAD - She is my peer group and she fought a great long fight with cancer. Blessings to her life, spirit and family..

Dylan and Brenda now together rip both

My mom is gonna be upset when I tell her. She loved charmed.

How sad!! So to young

I was sad to hear the passing of Shannen Doherty. I used to watch Beverly Hills 90210 all the time. Rest in peace beautiful Shannen 🙏🏻

A devastating and huge loss for the entertainment industry and the fans. So much passion and talent … I grew up watching Charmed … one of the greatest memories of my childhood. She wanted so badly to live … to continue to be such an inspiration not only for her family but for her fans. What an amazing woman to have fought for so long with such grace. RIP Dear Shannen … thank you for the memories. We love you and you will be missed by so many.

She was my favorite character on Charmed. I held out hope that she'd overcome the cancer. Shannen fought hard. Rest peacefully, Shannen.

Very sad news indeed. She was sick for a while. Very beautiful person.

Poor Thing, she fought a long hard battle. May she rest in peace.

My husband has cancer for the 2nd time. He has had a port for over a year. He’s in hospice now. I hate cancer. RIP Shannon. 🙏🏻😢

So sorry she passed. I really liked her. RIP Sweetie.

Rest easy Shannen. Loved you in charmed and 90210, part of my generation.

Loved her in “charmed” and “beverly hills 90210”. Was very disappointed when she was removed from both series. Such a beautiful and talented actress ❤️ May her soul rest in peace 🙏

This is so so sad. I know. My brother always watched Charmed with her in it. God bless you.

Wow. How sad

R.I.P Shannen Doherty THE best actor in many movies and shows and she Will be missed ba many People and actors 😭😭

Rip Shannon I commend her for sharing her experience to help others. ❤

I'm so sorry for shannon . She fought so hard. I had cancer twice including a mastectomy. You have to be vigilant and keep on top of it. I can't tell you the sorrow I feel over shannon. I admired her and will think of her daily. Rest in peace.

very very sad..she fought so hard RIP

I remember her on the 80's show "Our House". One of my favorite shows growing up.

God bless you Shannon. rest in peace sweetheart 🩷

I know this sounds crazy, but I wish the title had said "Shannen Dougherty has died at age 53" instead of "DEAD at 53" it just seems a bit more respectful. 😰

That's horrible news. Rest in peace Shannon

A family friend had cancer stage 4 almost 5 years ago now, and she is now 81 and cancer free. They have her on record as basically a medical anomaly but really she's a miracle. She was on something called keytruda but i might be spelling it wrong idk. It is meant to help your own immune system fight the cancer. She really should not even be alive rn. My own son is currently going through chemo and he is only 14 years old. He will definitely recover but the mistakes from drs before the x-ray that showed the mass in his chest, really dropped the ball! I am so thankful to his medical team at Roswell. They are amazing!! He too is on a medicine that helps his own immune system fight it. There really are phenomenal advancements in oncology now. I am so sorry we lost Shannen to such a true monster. She was a real fighter and will be missed

She was such an inspiring warrior and battled that dreadful disease for much too long!😥 Hopefully her and Luke are reunited somewhere in perfect health dancing with angels❣️

Rest easy, honey. You fought so long and so hard, and you are free from all of that now!

She was my favorite sister in Charmed......RIP

I took this hard. Bawled my eyes out 😭. I grew up watching her. I was born in 1985 so I was very young when Beverly Hills 90210 was on the scene. I got to watch some bits of it here and there. Such an ICONIC figure of my childhood. She was brave, courageous, kind, loving, caring, strong, independent, smart, beautiful inside and out. Very outspoken and true to who she was. Stood her ground, fighting til the very end. I'm always gonna remember her smile and how fierce she was. RIP Shannen Doherty ❤🙏 🕊

My condolences to her and her family... I went to a cancer treatment center with my friend. But what I really learned was how many people at that clinic, from dawn till dusk, it was a revolving door of patient's. It was painful to witness this reality. 😢

Tragic. Her cancer updates were always heartbreaking since she knew she didn't have much time left.

Oh my God! I can't believe this! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I'm sure that Luke Perry was waiting for her and will help her through her transition. Atleast she's no longer suffering from the cancer treatments. Rest in Peace, Shannen. I miss you already. 🙏✝️

I lost my Dad to Cancer back in 2004. What a horrible sickness. I wouldn't want to wish it on anybody. I am sorry Ms. Doherty you had to endure this for so long. Your battle and suffering are over now and may you rest in peace. I wish your family the time of peace and love during their mourning. The world lost a brave woman who was a true warrior.

I didn’t even know the cancer came back. I thought she was still in remission. Now two of the main characters gone from 90210 way too damn young. That show was such a huge part of my life, particularly the wretched middle school years. It certainly helped me get through a time that really sucked. Something I noticed several years ago after she was diagnosed…rewatching Brenda’s breast cancer scare episode from the first season was really weird. Who would’ve thought.

She fought such a long and hard battle. 😥

RIP Shannon, you were strong and made your struggles with this horrible disease the fore-front.

I'm a huge fan since before 90210. Very saddened to hear about her passing. I'm praying she is resting in peace. 🙏🌹💔

Aww, that's sweet that the news people shared a few quick memories 90210. Shows what an impact Shannen had with her career even before the cancer.

May she Rest in Peace. I had been following her struggle with cancer and very sad.

What’s going on first Shelly Duvall then Richard Simmons then Dr Ruth and Shannen?!?!

She was strong through it all. God Bless you Shannon and may you rest in peace.

Wow, I'm so sorry for her loss. My condolences to her family..I lost 3 people I loved dearly to cancer..This is a tragedy..

It's sad that her TV characters weren't sympathetic and she dealt with a distressing ordeal.

She was a fighter and helped others in the same boat when she shared her journey❤

as someone who grew up in my mid teens in the 90's i always watched her on 90210 and in CHARMED, the wise oldest sister of the 3, its such a tragedy, but she was strong till the end, she never gave up like a Pit Bull, she was and still is my favourite TV actress, i always thought she was special, RIP

My condolences to her family, friends, and fans all around. I remember first watching Shannen on "Our House." She was the aspiring airplane pilot/astronaut. I, too, had similar dreams. That was Shannen's best role and series. Then she did a great job as the eldest sister/witch on "Charmed." Wasn't interested in BH 90210. Characters were fake and superficial. Didn't watch and care for that series. But, anyway, Shannen fought a very courageous battle against cancer. She exemplified hope, determination, and bravery for many others with the same illness. Shannen Doherty will be missed greatly!

that is very young, we are seeing a lot of people passing prior to their time...

RIP sweetheart. I’m so very sorry

Rest In Peace and her legacy. My mom passed away May 2024 breast cancer and losing my breast cancer most painful and grief for me.

Rest In peace Shannon you did fought very hard for 4 years

So sad. I am so sorry. 😢 Prayers for friends and family.

My heart hurts 😢 so sorry Shannon, you were one brave warrior ❤🙏 R.I.P

May she rest in peace now, talented and lovely❤😢

So very sad such a beautiful woman and talented actress RIP. 😓
