Shannen Doherty's friend and Beverly Hills 90210 costar, Jason Priestley, is giving fans an update seven months after news broke of Shannen's stage four cancer diagnosis.
Shannen has been keeping her battle relatively quiet since making the announcement that her cancer had returned back in February.
Now, Jason is letting fans know how the beloved actress is doing.
Talking to Good Morning America back in February, Shannen revealed her cancer had come back.
The actress then revealed she's been fighting her diagnosis privately for the past year.
"I don’t think that I’ve processed it. It’s a bitter pill to swallow in a lot of ways," she continued.
Shannen went on to say that she was more concerned about telling her husband and her mom than she was about the diagnosis.
"I’m pretty scared. My mom is a ridiculously strong, courageous human being. So is my husband, but I worry about him."
"I want to be remembered for something bigger than just me," she added.
From the outpouring of love, it's clear to see that Shannen is every bit as wonderful in real life as I always hoped she was!
One of those friends was '90s heartthrob Jason Priestly.
Much to fans' delight, the two have maintained their close friendship throughout the years.
He revealed he had reached out to her the day her interview with Good Morning America aired.
"She’s overwhelmed with well wishers and with people reaching out to her," he explained.
"Shannen and I will always have a bond that is very meaningful. I’m very heartbroken about the news and I wish her and her family the best in this very difficult time."
"I reach out to Shannen every few months, just to check in on her and say hi," the 51-year-old explained, as per People.
"And I know that she will continue to fight as hard as she can. Last time I heard from her, she was in pretty good spirits."
We hope we get an update from the legendary actress soon.
Until then, we're wishing you all the best, Shannen!
