De scheiding van Shannen Doherty is na haar overlijden officieel gemaakt. Eerder werd al bekend dat de actrice een dag voor haar overlijden de papieren voor de scheiding met haar ex Kurt Iswarienko had ingediend.
De rechter heeft bij wijze van uitzondering de documenten twee dagen na Doherty’s dood nog ondertekend, meldt entertainmentwebsite TMZ nu. Zo is Doherty wel als getrouwde vrouw overleden, maar is Iswarienko inmiddels al zijn rechten kwijt.

De actrice uitte onlangs nog haar zorgen over de manier waarop Iswarienko zich opstelde tijdens de aanloop naar de scheiding. “Het is gewoon niet juist dat Kurt onze scheiding mag uitstellen in de hoop dat ik sterf voordat hij mij moet betalen”, zou Doherty in documenten hebben gezegd.

Doherty overleed zaterdag op 53-jarige leeftijd aan de gevolgen van borstkanker. In 2011 trouwde ze met Iswarienko. Twaalf jaar later vroeg ze een scheiding aan, omdat Iswarienko ontrouw zou zijn geweest.

Actrice Shannen Doherty is zaterdag op 53-jarige leeftijd overleden. De Amerikaanse, die onder meer speelde in de serie Beverly Hills 90210, leed al jaren aan borstkanker.

“Het is met pijn in het hart dat ik het overlijden van actrice Shannen Doherty bevestig”, meldt Leslie Sloane, de publicist van Doherty, zondag aan het tijdschrift People. “Op zaterdag 13 juli verloor ze haar strijd tegen kanker na vele jaren vechten tegen de ziekte.”

Doherty was vooral bekend vanwege haar rol in de dramaseries Beverly Hills, 90210. Ze was van 1990 tot 1994 te zien in de serie als Brenda Walsh en in 2008 en 2019 keerde ze terug als het personage in een reboot. Ook speelde ze in de serie Charmed, waarin ze eind jaren negentig en begin deze eeuw een van de drie hoofdrollen had als goedaardige heks. Haar doorbraak beleefde Doherty begin jaren tachtig in de westerndramaserie Little House on the Prairie.

Ook maakte Doherty een kortlopende realityserie genaamd Breaking Up with Shannen Doherty. Daarnaast deed ze mee aan de Amerikaanse versie van Dancing with the Stars.

Doherty kreeg in 2015 de diagnose kanker
Doherty kreeg in 2015 de diagnose borstkanker en ging door verschillende fases heen waarin haar ziekte een meer of minder grote rol speelde. Zo hernam ze in 2019 haar rol als (een nu volwassen) Brenda Walsh in een herstart van Beverly Hills, 90210 terwijl ze ziek was.

In juni sprak Doherty in haar podcast Let’s be Clear over de chemotherapie die ze onderging voor borstkanker. Ze zei kort daarvoor begonnen te zijn met een “uitputtende” nieuwe chemotherapie. De actrice deelde toen ook haar zorgen over de behandeling. “Het komt heel erg binnen, omdat ik niet weet hoe lang ik de chemo moet volgen”, zei ze.

Doherty werd op het moment van overlijden omringd door haar zus, tante, vrienden en haar hond Bowie. “De familie vraagt ​​op dit moment om privacy zodat ze in vrede kan rouwen”, zegt Sloane.

Het is bekend geworden dat de ‘House Of Halliwel’ een nieuwe doorstart gaat maken via I Heart Media, Shannen zal daarnaast naast Brian, Drew en Holly ook de horen als host van de podcast. Alle afleveringen zullen vanaf de eerste aflevering weer besproken worden! Edit: Na het overlijden van Shannen, is bekend gemaakt dat er voor haar overlijden al 5 afleveringen opgenomen waren. Deze zullen alsnog uitgezonden worden!

Espresso Media International has picked up international rights to the documentary series “Balance: A Perimenopause Journey,” executive produced by Alyssa Milano and directed by Dallas-based monk-filmmakers Sadhvi Siddhali Shree and Sadhvi Anubhuti, ahead of this year’s MipTV.

Produced by Siddhali Shree and Anubhuti’s Texas-based non-profit production organization Siddhayatan Tirth Productions, the series explores the challenges women face when going through perimenopause, or the transition to menopause.

The four-part series, currently in production, “brings this vital issue to an underserved audience: women facing perimenopause at any age, as well as a secondary market of men who witness loved ones going through difficult changes,” Espresso Media stated.

Siddhali Shree and Anubhuti, both Jain monks based at the Siddhayatan Tirth spiritual retreat center located near Dallas, Texas, co-directed and produced the series.

“While menopause is inevitable for all women, the suffering in solitude that many experience, the general lack of awareness of the physical and mental effects, and the substandard care for aging women and their hormonal health can all be dramatically improved,” said Milano, who has worked with the monk-filmmaker duo on previously projects.

“In our docuseries, ‘Balance,’ we shed light on the relentless stigma and dismissal many perimenopausal women face when it comes to their hormonal experiences, and we advocate for increased research and support, which should include the input of women in the medical field. Under the umbrella term ‘healthcare,’ women’s health is not sufficiently prioritized here in the U.S., or in most countries around the world. With our docuseries, ‘Balance,’ we aim to change that — because after all, women’s health and women’s equality go hand in hand.”

The series features a high-profile lineup of influential women’s healthcare specialists, including Dr. Mary Claire Haver, an obstetrician-gynecologist from Galveston, Texas, who has a following of more than 3 million on social media.

“My hope is that the ‘Balance’ docuseries will help women understand what is happening to their bodies so that they are prepared and not blindsided,” Haver said. “It will also help them know their therapeutic options so that they can have an informed conversation with their healthcare provider.”

For the filmmakers, known for tackling challenging and taboo subjects in works like the 2021 feature documentary “Surviving Sex Trafficking,” the docuseries represents a deeply personal journey.

They note that as monks, they have striven their whole lives to achieve levels of balance through the three pillars of body, mind and spirit, and suddenly their peaceful lives are disrupted by the hormonal effects and symptoms of perimenopause – the transitional phase leading up to menopause.

“It’s not as simple as finding balance and keeping it — the cards are stacked against us — because our bodies are ever-changing, and we’ve never been taught just how drastic those changes can be,” said Siddhali Shree. “Hormone imbalance and perimenopause are simply not taught to us. At 38, it started with sleepless nights, high anxiety, and a moment of rage. Something changed in me and it was unsettling. I didn’t know what it was until I learned it was perimenopause.”

Anubhuti added: “Witnessing what Sadhvi Siddhali Shree was going through made me dive into my own research to find answers. We were then inspired to make a docuseries about it so that others are informed and can be empowered to be an agent for themselves. Suicidal thoughts are higher during this transition. As monks, we wish to reduce suffering in the world and so this series can save lives.”

The series’ executive producers include H.H. Acharya Shree Yogeesh and Heather Badal, with Zack Tzourtzouklis serving as editor and co-producer and Cesar Ramos as director of photography.

“We are excited to launch this timely series to the international market,” said Rebecca Nicholls, head of sales and acquisitions at Espresso Media. “‘Balance’ is going to help so many people, bringing the latest information, and helping us all to identify how perimenopause might be affecting us as well as those we love.”
