When sources got hold of the official paperwork involved in Shannen Doherty's divorce, everyone learned that the actress had separated from her husband earlier this year. It was confirmed that the divorce was bound to happen.

Despite having no children during Doherty's 11-year marriage to Kurt Iswarienko, the couple's divorce is nothing short of messy.

Per sources, the couple separated in January 2023, and the actress does not favor spousal support for her ex.

What makes the divorce even more difficult for the "Little House on the Prairie" actress is her stage 4 cancer. After undergoing several rounds of chemotherapy and a mastectomy since being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015, Doherty claimed it affected her marriage significantly.

She admitted that there were some problems in her marriage before her cancer diagnosis, but things quickly changed soon after. "Cancer solidified us," the actress shared.

According to Doherty, she and her husband wouldn't speak to each other for days after an argument, let alone resolve their differences. However, their relationship wasn't the same after the diagnosis.

"We don't let a night go by mad at each other," Doherty confessed in a 2019 interview, revealing how her marriage changed after cancer.

Despite sharing a strengthened bond with her husband post-cancer, Doherty ultimately filed for divorce. Her publicist recently revealed that a third person was "intimately involved" in the couple's divorce.

Why Is Shannon Doherty Getting a Divorce?

After Doherty submitted the official documents in court on April 21, 2023, her publicist, Leslie Sloane, revealed that divorce was the "last thing" the actress wanted. But Sloane said the circumstances left Doherty with no choice, adding:

"You can contact Kurt's agent, Collier Grimm, at PICTUREKID, as she is intimately involved."

Grimm, who is the woman allegedly involved in Doherty's split with her photographer husband, owns the photography agency, PICTUREKID. Iswarienko is affiliated with the agency as an artist.
