Nearly five years after the untimely death of actor Luke Perry, his Beverly Hills, 90210 castmates are still grappling with the void his absence has left behind. During a recent panel at MegaCon Orlando, Shannen Doherty and Jason Priestley took a moment to reflect on their late colleague and friend.
The mention of Luke Perry immediately struck a chord with Doherty, who became visibly emotional on stage. Wiping away tears with her hand, she eventually had to leave her seat to retrieve a tissue. The Charmed actress admitted that Perry's passing had a profound impact on her because, as someone battling stage 4 cancer herself, she had always believed she would be the first to go. Learning of Perry's passing sent her spiraling emotionally.
