THE WORLD LOST TWO POP-CULTURE LEGENDS WHEN SHANNEN DOHERTY AND RICHARD SIMMONS DIED ON JULY 13. HERE, SHOCKING INSIGHT INTO THEIR FINAL WEEKS AND HOURS.
Their Sad Last Days

IT was a back-to-back gut punch for fans. On the afternoon of July 13, news broke that beloved fitness guru Richard Simmons had died just one day after celebrating his 76th birthday. The next morning, actress Shannen Doherty’s publicist announced the star had passed away the previous day at age 53 following a nine-year battle with cancer.

Touching tributes dominated social media. “She was courageous, passionate, determined and very loving and generous,” gushed Shannen’s former Beverly Hills, 90210 costar Jennie Garth. Holly Marie Combs, who starred with Shannen on Charmed, called her a “fierce fighter,” adding, “You taught me the meaning of family. You were and will be forevermore my sister.” Meanwhile, Richard’s longtime friend Jane Fonda honored him with a throwback photo and a sweet message reading, “He gave of himself, of his time, to make people happy. I hope he felt the love so many were sending him these last years.”

As loved ones and fans continue to mourn the monumental losses, new details are surfacing about Shannen and Richard’s deaths — including revelations about the final days of their lives.
