Shannen Doherty, star of "Beverly Hills, 90210" and "Charmed," revealed during a revealing interview that her stage 4 breast cancer had spread to her bones.
In an interview with American magazine People on the occasion of the launch of a new podcast in which she will discuss her personal and professional life as well as the battle with her illness, the actress said that she "is not done living, I am not finished loving, I am not finished creating. I'm not done with the possibility of changing things for the better. I'm just not done."

As Dougherty, 52, enters the clinical treatment phase, she said in an interview that she is grateful for every day and believes "the best memory will come." Referring to people in her situation, she said: "People just assume we can't walk, eat or work – they say, 'You're done, you're done,' but that's not the case. We have a very different perspective on life, we are people who want to work, embrace life and move on."
Breast cancer was first diagnosed at Doherty in 2015, and two years later it went into remission after she amputated one of her breasts and underwent chemotherapy as part of her battle with the disease. Unfortunately, the disease returned in 2019 – and since then she has said that it has spread to her brain as well.
