NBC News reports:
Child actor Shannen Doherty, who became one of the biggest stars of the 1990s as a student in the high school drama “Beverly Hills 90210,” died Saturday after years of battling breast cancer.
“It is with a heavy heart that I confirm the passing of actress Shannen Doherty. On Saturday, July 13, after battling cancer for many years, she finally lost her battle.
She is 53 years old.
Doherty was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015 but went into remission two years later. This reprieve won’t last long. In February 2020, Doherty filed a lawsuit against her insurance company over the damage to her home, and court documents show she was “dying” from stage 4 breast cancer, which had metastasized to the point where it was incurable.
