Tori Spelling is opening up about her final conversation with Shannen Doherty.
It’s been over ten days now since the iconic actress sadly passed away amid her years-long battle with cancer, and her friends and co-stars are clearly still trying to wrap their minds around it. During Monday’s episode of the 90210MG podcast, which was sweetly titled Remembering Shannen Doherty, the late 53-year-old’s Beverly Hills, 90210 co-stars Tori and Jennie Garth discussed their final words with Shannen. Tori said:
“I’ve had a lot of death in my life, and I don’t believe in regrets, but I have a lot of regrets that I didn’t have that time to have a second chance to get past stuff from the past and look at all the good things and really talk it out and have that last conversation.”
But luckily that’s NOT the case with Shannen. The mom of five continued:
“I feel like she and I had that, and I’m super grateful for that.”
Awww.

She didn’t give details on what exactly they talked about, but Jennie was happy to hear about Tori and Shannen’s interaction. She responded:
“I was thinking definitely of you, Tor, and how happy you must have been to have that time with her and to have that sort of just reconnection on a deeper level as both of you matured and grown and learned so much.”
But for Garth, she did not have the same. Jennie added:
“I wished that I had had that opportunity because I didn’t really get to sit down and have like [a] heartfelt conversation with her recently, but I was very glad that you did.”
That’s really too bad… And possibly why she’s reportedly not getting an invite to Shannen’s funeral!
Spelling also added that she’s “not doing well” since the Charmed star’s passing, noting that she hasn’t really been “emotionally” ready to talk about it. However, she has felt a responsibility to do so:
“For me, I honestly, as you know, didn’t want to do this. I just emotionally didn’t feel ready. And I feel like I know a lot of people are speaking out and giving lovely tributes to her in her memory, but I just, oh, I obviously wanted to do this for the fans, so this episode is for them, not for us.”
Tori continued:
“I guess it was just that belief that she fought so hard and was such a warrior. And she has shown her entire life and career you’re everything that she can get past anything. So although we know the answer is so evil and takes everyone that we love, it just I don’t know. I guess she made you believe that she was the one that would make it and she was so hopeful.”
Tori, as well as many of her other 90210 co-stars, offered loving tributes after Shannen’s death, which you can read HERE.
The mourning star then concluded:
“I’ve spent my whole life living in fear, and I’ve always been a fearful person, and I didn’t feel fear at all when she passed. I just felt sad. I felt sad for the second chapter she had, and I was so excited for that chapter for her and wanted her so badly to have that.”
So sad. Shannen was definitely taken too soon.
Our hearts remain with all of her loved ones! You can listen to the full podcast episode (below):
