Heartbreaking photos have showed Shannen Doherty arm-in-arm with friends just weeks before her tragic death.
SHANNEN DOHERTY LAST PUBLIC APPEARANCE
Doherty was pictured with her friend Chris Cortazzo on June 16, just before the actress passed away at age 53 after years of battling cancer.
The 90210 and Charmed star was seen with her longtime friend walking with their arms around each other as they left Kristy’s Malibu after dinner.
She wore a baker boy hat, a gray sweater, blue jeans, and flip flops as she carried a brown paper bag in what is believed to have been her final appearance in public.
Her death, which was confirmed on Sunday morning, came just about a month after Doherty confessed the past year was ‘really hard’ for her.
‘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,’ Sloane, her publicist, told People.
‘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,’ Sloane added.
SHE WAS CANCER-STRICKEN
Doherty, who played Brenda Walsh in the hit 1990s show, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015.
Just two years later, the Charmed star revealed that the cancer had returned after going into remission.
