Shannen Doherty and Tori Spelling can’t remember why they stopped being friends but have a few theories

The former cast members of “Beverly Hills, 90210” vented their frustrations on the “Let’s Be Clear” podcast hosted by Doherty.

Tori Spelling and Shannen Doherty are trying to figure out what happened to cause their friendship to dissolve.

On the most recent edition of Doherty’s Let’s Be Clear podcast, the stars of Beverly Hills, 90210 had an open discussion about their breakup and came up with some thoughts about why their friendship collapsed.

A “pivotal moment” when their friendship shifted was brought up by Doherty and Spelling during their conversation. “Like one minute, we were friends, and then one minute we weren’t,” Doherty recounted.

An admission by Spelling that she is a “swayer” may have sealed their friendship’s fate. “You were always easily swayed,” Doherty added, echoing the sentiment. I used to constantly tell you, “Yeah, Tor, have an opinion,” so it was really annoying for me. For example, you have great intelligence, wit, and skill. I hoped you could have the same self-confidence that I had since I liked and appreciated you.

When asked about Spelling’s ex-boyfriend, Doherty said he was partly to fault because he was “abusive” and a “addict.” The actress from Charmed continued by talking about a couple’s vacation she and Spelling took with their partners, which eventually drove her to her breaking point.

My exact words were, “You must terminate it with him or I will murder him.” And I looked at you and said it. “I just can’t sit idly by and do nothing,” She and Spelling “started drifting apart” after that vacation, according to Doherty.

Spelling admitted that she would be “easily swayed” by the other cast members, including Doherty, Luke Perry, and Jason Priestley, when they appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone, and Doherty also mentioned tensions within the 90210 cast.

“I should not be doing covers without the entire cast,” Doherty was told by Spelling and a number of other cast members who came up to her in a group.

Spelling says she had and still has trouble speaking out for herself, but she can’t recall the intervention that happened on the magazine cover.

“It was always whoever was the dominant one when I was younger,” Spelling remarked. “And I really doubt I would be able to defend myself… I refused to claim any responsibility. Everyone is treated with the utmost kindness, therefore it’s like that. But it’s the same as what you said: having an opinion. I swear to God I did.

Years later, the actresses have so buried the past that they no longer remember what exactly caused their friendship to dissolve. It seems like it was the typical growing pains that any friend goes through, with the exception that a Rolling Stone cover is seldom brought up.
