Brian Austin Green, known for his role in the hit show “Beverly Hills, 90210,” is making headlines as he gears up for Season 2 of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test. But it was his recent update on two of his former co-stars, Tori Spelling and Shannen Doherty, that caught our attention.
For those who may not know, Shannen Doherty has been bravely fighting breast cancer since March 2015. Over the years, she has undergone anti-estrogen therapy, a single mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation. In April 2017, she announced that her cancer was in remission after it had advanced to her lymph nodes.
Sadly, the cancer returned in 2019 and was upgraded to stage 4, indicating that it had spread beyond its original site. In June 2023, Shannen revealed that the cancer had reached her brain and was now terminal. It was heartbreaking news for her and her loved ones.
Despite the challenges she has faced, Shannen has leaned on the support of close friends like Brian Austin Green. The two have remained close over the years, and Brian has been there for her every step of the way. In fact, Shannen publicly credited Brian for his support during her fight against the deadly disease.
In an interview, Brian opened up about his former co-star’s battle with cancer, acknowledging that it’s a difficult situation. He described Shannen as an incredibly tough person, someone who fights with all her might. He believes that if anyone can face cancer head-on, it’s Shannen Doherty.
But Brian’s own health struggles have also come to light. He revealed that he has been dealing with vertigo and ulcerative colitis, which eventually led to neurological symptoms that affected his ability to speak, walk, read, and write. It was a trying time for him, and he was unable to work for four years. Though he was not formally diagnosed, he held onto hope that he would eventually recover.
Through it all, Brian Austin Green has shown resilience and strength, just like his former co-stars Tori Spelling and Shannen Doherty. Their friendship and support for one another have been truly remarkable. The bond they formed on the set of “Beverly Hills, 90210” has stood the test of time and adversity.
As we continue to follow Brian’s journey on Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, let us also remember the courage and determination of Shannen Doherty as she faces her own battle with cancer. Their stories serve as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, true friendships and inner strength can carry us through.
