    Shannen Doherty’s mom speaks out following ‘beautiful’ daughter’s cancer death at 53

    The former castmates had a close bond while filming the hit ’90s teen drama, and they kept in touch until Luke died of a stroke in 2019. He was 52.

    “It was shocking. I have a very visceral reaction whenever someone brings up Luke because as someone with cancer — and a really horrible cancer at stage 4 — I thought I would be the first to go. So when it was Luke, it really just sent me for a tailspin,” Doherty told MegaCon Orlando attendees in February.

    She previously called the late actor a “smart, quiet, humble and complex man with a heart of gold and never-ending well of integrity and love” shortly after his death.
