Shannen Doherty, renowned for her role in “Beverly Hills 90210,” concluded her divorce from Kurt Iswarienko mere hours before succumbing to Stage 4 breast cancer that had metastasized to her bones and brain.
According to court documents obtained by People, Doherty waived spousal support and opted for a “default or uncontested dissolution” of their marriage on the day of her passing. Iswarienko, a celebrity photographer, finalized the paperwork the same day she passed away.
The documents stated, “The parties have entered into a written agreement regarding their property and their marriage or domestic partnership rights, including support, the original of which is being or has been submitted to the court.”
Doherty and Iswarienko had tied the knot in 2011 during a ceremony in Malibu. The actress filed for divorce in April 2023, revealing in December that Iswarienko had been unfaithful for two years, a discovery that deeply wounded her as she prepared for brain surgery.
“I couldn’t go into that surgery with him there,” she shared on her podcast “Let’s Be Clear.” “I felt so betrayed.”
This final legal step marked the end of a turbulent chapter in Doherty’s personal life, punctuating her legacy with a poignant moment of closure.
