Doherty was first diagnosed with breast cancer in March 2015. In 2017 she revealed the cancer was in remission.
Then in February of 2020, Doherty announced it had spread to stage 4.
Just over a month ago, the Charmed star divorced from husband Kurt Iswarienko and shared a message on Instagram:
"The only people who deserve to be in your life are the ones who treat you with love, kindness and total respect."
Sending our love ❤️
