Brian Austin Green calls Shannen Doherty 'incredibly strong' and 'a fighter' amid cancer battle
“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,” Doherty’s longtime publicist Leslie Sloane confirmed via a statement to People on Sunday.
“There’s going to be a lot more options that will give another five years,” she said of time hopefully allowing her to receive T-cell therapy and other future treatments under development. “Then in those five years, there’s a whole other group of options, and eventually there’s going to be a cure.
She added: “We’re the people who want to work the most, because we’re just so grateful for every second, every hour, every day we get to be here.” The Memphis, Tennessee native was best known for playing Jenny Wilder on “Little House on the Prairie,” Heather Duke on 1988’s “Heathers,” Brenda Walsh on “Beverly Hills, 90210” and teaming up with Aaron Spelling again for “Charmed,” in which she starred alongside Alyssa Milano and Holly Marie Combs as Prue Halliwell.
“She’s a fighter. And so if anybody were to go through what it is she’s going through, I would absolutely pick her to head the team if that’s what this was,” he continued. “She’s an amazing human being. I’ve had such an amazing, long friendship with her. I love her to death. She’s fantastic.”about Doherty’s “difficult” health battle to the Post in January. “She’s being very proactive and it’s a difficult situation but I think that Shannen is managing it in a positive way,” he said.
