She has shared numerous updates about her battle on Instagram. In 2015, the actress revealed her cancer diagnosis and underwent a single mastectomy, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. By 2017, it had gone into remission; however in 2020 it returned as stage IV with spread to other parts of her body. She?s?feeling great?

At nine years since being diagnosed, the former cast member appeared on a panel at 90s Con in Hartford, Connecticut alongside fellow stars Holly Marie Combs, Rose McGowan, Drew Fuller and Brian Krause for 90s Con festivities. Doherty has been fighting stage 4 breast cancer since 2015, entering remission in 2016 but being diagnosed again in 2020. She recently celebrated her 50th birthday, so while she may feel old, her family and friends are proud of her for fighting such a battle. In an interview with People, Doherty discussed her connection to Charmed character Prue Halliwell as a strong woman.

Doherty left the show after season three and was replaced by McGowan, who played Halliwell half-sister Paige Matthews. She later wrote a memoir about her time on the show called Brave which detailed both her experiences on set and difficulties adjusting to life as an additional cast member. No matter their past differences, Doherty and Milano have maintained a close friendship since leaving the show in 2001. Doherty revealed that she and Milano had reached out to each other several times after Doherty's diagnosis and received several supportive direct messages. When the Charmed reboot was announced, fans were instantly divided.

Despite these disagreements, viewers can look forward to watching how these characters interact this fall on The CW - it promises to be an intriguing ride! Alyssa Milano, who played Prue's sister Piper on the original series, has been vocal in her opposition to the upcoming Charmed reboot. She even went so far as to call it "a terrible idea." Milano states that while she would love for the original series to return, she does not wish for it to be rebooted. Meanwhile, The CW has released a trailer for their upcoming Charmed reboot and it looks just as good as the original. This reboot will be spearheaded by Jennie Snyder Urman - creator and showrunner of Jane the Virgin fame. In the trailer for The CW show, three women from the original cast return: Phoebe Bishop (Miranda Otto), Elise Rainier (Katie Stevens) and Piper Halliwell (Holly Marie Combs). Madeleine Mantock will join them as Macy Vaughn, a "Whitelighter," who was recently removed from their television lineup on The CW. She?s?still?working?
