Luke Perry said some very kind words about his 90210 co-star Shannen Doherty while reuniting with other cast members at REWind Con this past weekend in Illionois.
Shannen was not able to make it to the event as she is undergoing treatments for breast cancer.
“None of us are up here today without Shannen,” Luke said during the panel, moderated by Lauren Cox. “She’s been through a lot. She’s not doing well right now, but sometimes her contributions are minimized.”
“She’s been thrown under the bus,” he continued. “I’ve been accused of driving it. But she’s a very big part of the success of this show. She taught me a lot. I’m glad she was my scene partner. She was great at what she did in the character with me.”
Jennie Garth took to Instagram to post a tribute to Shannen.
“To my soul sister @theshando strongest lady i’ve ever known. then and now. i used to be threatened by your spirit, now i’m in awe of it. You’ve taught me a lot about speaking my mind and not being afraid of my power. i’m so grateful that young me got to be friends with you. but especially ‘old’ me! the best is yet to come on this crazy journey!! love you! #fightlikeagirl #fightlikebrenda #aries,” she wrote.
