RIP.
RIP Shannen
Oh no, another one! I know many folks did not like her, but in the end I came to greatly admire her and her courage in the face of her illness and of certain death. I hope she found Christ and is in heaven right now with Jesus.
RIP.
ditto-
I’m glad for her that she is not suffering any more.
She sure was one hellraiser during her youth.
She was attractive, headstrong and fully aware of her effect on most men.
I recall her brief 5 month marriage to Ashley Hamilton (son of former star George Hamilton). They got married after knowing each other for two weeks.
This, briefly after she was fired from the TV show 90201 by producer Aaron Spelling. The taming of this shrew did not occur till much later in her life.
She was in remission and then she wasn’t. Just saying.
Very sad. RIP Shannon.
From Wikipedia,
Doherty was a registered Republican. According to Complex magazine in 2012, she said: “I realize that the majority of people in the entertainment business happen to be Democrats. I have no problem with that. And they should have no problem with the fact that I’m a Republican.”[62]
Rest In Peace, Shannen.
I saw a YouTube video she made fairly recently and I think she had stopped treatment.
One of my first loves.
She was on Little House on the Prairie.
I remember her seeing her on TV at the Republican Convention in 1992. She lost her way over the years - not, so far as I know politically, as if that really matters, but in the other things in life. Maybe she’s at peace now, RIP.
