The actress has been fighting breast cancer since 2015 which recently spread to the bones and in the last episode of her podcast, “Let’s Be Clear”, she admitted that she is now aware that the tumor will give her no escape and that her the end is near
She knows that there is no more hope and that in the end the tumor will prevail, but Shannen Doherty has now learned to live with this sad reality, to the point of even being able to speak ironically about what she wants her funeral to be like. And, above all, the guest list, which must be short. «I would only like people who really want to be there – the actress explained in the latest episode of his podcast “Let’s Be Clear”, where he had his best friend, Chris Cortazzo, as a guest – . There’s a lot of people that I think would show up that I don’t want to be there, because their reasons for showing up aren’t the best. Any examples? They are people who really don’t like me now, they have their reasons and that’s okay. But I would like consistency. You do not like me? Don’t show up at my funeral and pretend you care. But they will do it, because it’s the politically correct thing to do and they don’t want to make a bad impression. I want my funeral to be sincere and a celebration of love. I don’t want people to cry and then privately say, ‘Thank God that bitch is dead.'”
Doherty does not name names or specific references, but the meaning of his speech is very clear: whoever comes to say their final goodbyes will have to do so because they really want to and not because they feel they have to. «I know these are conversations that may seem morbid – she continued – but I have to face them, because I know that it will happen and that I am leaving. Maybe they are macabre things, but in part it is also funny.”
It was 2015 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and since then the unforgettable Brenda Walsh of “Beverly Hills” has never stopped fighting and hoping, sharing every moment of her illness with fans. She had recently revealed that the cancer was now at the fourth stage and that it had spread to her bones, while in January last year metastases were found in her brain and she had to undergo a delicate operation and then to radiotherapy. «I want my remains to be mixed with those of my dog and my father – concluded Doherty -. And then I want our ashes to be scattered in a place that my dad and I loved in Malibu, where we spent precious time.”
