Shannen had kept her diagnosis private for a year, but was forced to make her health condition public because she knew that it would be revealed in the court documents in a lawsuit against insurance company State Farm.

She is suing State Farm over their refusal to cover the full costs for damages done to her home during the wildfires in California.

During their discussion on "The Talk," Marie Osmond also sympathized with the "90210" star, arguing that Shannen might not have been ready to speak publically about her health.

State Farm has responded to Shannen's announcement arguing that she is using her health as a cop-out to gain sympathy for a larger insurance claim.

Court documents show that State Farm has already paid $1.1 million to Shannen for repairs, cleaning, purchase of furniture and temporary housing.

Shannen's attorney, Devin McRae has responded saying that he finds the company's defense to be "appalling" because she had already paid so much out of pocket in the midst of her ailing health.
