The news of Shannen Doherty’s passing caught the world by storm and left many mourning. The Charmed star was 53 and battled cancer for the past seven years of her life.
Before her tragic passing, she made a heartbreaking post online.
During her battle with the disease, Doherty often shared updates regarding her health condition. She was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015 when she disclosed that she had ‘invasive breast cancer metastatic to at least one lymph node.’
After several surgeries and treatments, the 90210 star experienced remission after her initial cancer diagnosis, but the disease later returned.
In 2020, she shared the devastating news that she had been diagnosed with stage four breast cancer, a severe stage where the cancer spreads to various parts of the body.
In 2023, Doherty confirmed that the cancer had metastasized to her brain and bones, resulting in surgery that removed ‘almost all’ of the brain tumor.
In her final social media post, the actress shared a clip from the Let’s Be Clear podcast on her Instagram page.
“So, you know, for the first time in I have no idea how long, I’m going to be on chemo for I have no idea if it’s going to be, you know, three months or if its going to be six months or if we are going, you know, if after three months if it’s not working if we’re going to change again,” he said in the clip.
“Like, I don’t really, that’s not something that I can predict. It’s not something my doctors can predict and it’s scary.
“It’s like a big wake up call at the same time I got to say that there is some positivity there and the positivity is that because my molecular structure of my cancer cells changed recently.
“It means that there’s a lot more protocols for me to try. So, you know, for the first time in a couple months probably I feel hopeful because there are so many more protocols now.”
“Whereas before I was hopeful but I was still getting prepared.”
Doherty’s death was confirmed yesterday, July 14, by her friend and publicist Leslie Sloane.
“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. The devoted daughter, sister, aunt and friend was surrounded by her loved ones as well as her dog, Bowie. The family asks for their privacy at this time so they can grieve in peace.”
We are so very sorry for this devastating loss. May she rest in peace.
After waiting for so long, Simon Cowell pressed the button, knelt down, and simply asked her to sing once again…
In a world often characterized by turmoil and unpredictability, there are instances of profound clarity that shine through like stars in the night sky.
For Simon, such a moment arrived after years of anticipation, as he stood at a crossroads that promised to reshape his life.
The stage was set, the air heavy with emotion as Simon, with trembling hands, pressed a button that held the promise of something extraordinary.
It was a moment he had long awaited, the culmination of aspirations and dreams ingrained within him.
As the button yielded to his touch, Simon’s heart surged with a mix of excitement and trepidation. This wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment decision but a deliberate choice, a leap of faith into the unknown.
With held breath, he knelt down, silent entreaty shimmering in his eyes as he beheld the figure before him.
It was a gesture of vulnerability, an acknowledgment of the power embedded within the soul-stirring melodies that had once infused his life with purpose.
“Sing once more,” he whispered, his voice barely audible amidst the anticipation enveloping the room.
In those three simple words lay a universe of yearning, a fervent longing to reconnect with a part of himself that had long lain dormant.
For Simon, music transcended mere notes or harmonious melodies; it was a lifeline, a guiding light that had led him through the darkest of times and illuminated the path to redemption.
Yet, somewhere along the journey, the music had faltered, its once-potent enchantment fading into the background of his existence. It was a loss that had left an emptiness in his heart, a void yearning to be filled once more.
