It’s witchcraft!

Following the tragic death of Shannen Doherty, actress Rose McGowan revealed she “cannot stop crying” as she opened up about some real black magic swirling on the set of Charmed.

RadarOnline.com can reveal that McGowan, 50, shared there were very much “dark forces” at play around the actresses who portrayed witches on the hit ’90s supernatural series.

McGowan and Doherty played half-sisters Paige Matthews and Prue Halliwell, respectively. The show also starred Alyssa Milano, 51, and Holly Marie Combs, 50, as Phoebe and Piper Halliwell.

McGowan’s comments about dark forces referenced the ongoing rumors that Doherty was difficult on set, causing friction with Milano. Doherty was eventually fired at the end of Season 3, and rumors of ongoing tension between her and Milano have persisted, even though Charmed wrapped in 2006.

Last year, Combs and McGowan said Milano was responsible for having Doherty fired.

Milano took to social media following Doherty’s passing from cancer on July 13, and stated: “It’s no secret that Shannen and I had a complicated relationship, but at its core was someone I deeply respected and was in awe of.”

“She was a talented actress, beloved by many and the world is less without her. My condolences to all who loved her.”

As for McGowan, she made it clear that despite the tension on set, she and Doherty “laughed at dark forces who wanted us to hate each other, instead we chose love and respect”.

She also pointedly stated: “Shannen Doherty had the heart of a lion. Passion for craft is often mislabeled as trouble. Shannen was passion.”

Calling Doherty “a soft-hearted bada** as there ever was,” and “a force of energy that will live forever in hearts,” McGowan acknowledged their lives had been “intertwined uniquely.”

She also expressed gratitude that she had the privilege of knowing Doherty, saying: “I met her in the ’90s and was awed. Getting to really know her later in life, a beautiful gift. Her work ethic inspiring to the end. Shannen’s great love for directing, for acting, Holly, her friends, her parents, dog and her beloved fans was legendary.”

Speaking to the 90210 star’s almost 10-year-battle with cancer, McGowan wrote: “This woman fought to live… May angels and God carry her to the holy kingdom where she is healthy, young and wild forever. Rest now warrior, we will never forget you dear sister.”
Rose McGowan continues to reflect on the legacy of Shannen Doherty in a touching Instagram post. She shared how Doherty’s presence on the set of Charmed brought a sense of light and positivity, despite the rumors of tension and dark forces at play.
McGowan emphasized the deep respect she held for Doherty, highlighting her passion for the craft and her fearless spirit. She fondly remembered the moments of laughter and love that they shared, choosing to focus on the bond they formed rather than the rumored conflicts.

Looking back on their intertwined lives, McGowan expressed gratitude for the privilege of knowing Doherty and witnessing her dedication to her work and her loved ones. She honored Doherty’s strength and resilience in the face of her battle with cancer, admiring her unwavering fight to live and continue pursuing her passion for directing and acting. McGowan recognized Doherty as a true warrior, a force of energy that will forever be remembered in the hearts of those who knew her.

As the world mourns the loss of Shannen Doherty, McGowan’s heartfelt words serve as a reminder of the impact she had on those around her. Her message of love and respect transcends any past conflicts, celebrating Doherty’s legacy as a talented actress, a devoted friend, and a fierce advocate for following one’s passions. May Doherty’s spirit continue to inspire others to embrace life with the same courage and determination that she exemplified. Rest in peace, dear sister.
