• Alyssa Milano responds to claim she got Shannen Doherty fired from ‘Charmed’
• Combs alleged Milano made ultimatum to choose between her and Doherty, leading to her exit from the show
• Milano addressed allegations at MegaCon Orlando and offered apology for past behavior
Here is what happened:
Alyssa Milano is addressing reports that she was responsible for causing Shannen Doherty to leave the show “Charmed.”
Holly Marie Combs, who played the third sibling in the show, alleged in a podcast that Milano had made an ultimatum to a producer, leading to Doherty’s departure in 2001. Milano addressed these allegations at MegaCon Orlando on Feb. 2, saying, “I feel like I should just address the elephant in the room… I want to be very thoughtful in how I respond to any of this.”
The feud extended to another cast member, Rose McGowan, who alleged on social media that Milano made the “Charmed” set toxic. At a panel event, Milano expressed her sadness over the toxicity and revealed that she has been very upfront and has taken accountability for and apologized for her part in the situation.
Milano also addressed the allegations on her Instagram, stating that she did not have the power to get anyone fired. She conveyed her peace and light to her co-stars and wished them well in their personal and professional journeys.
The feud was reignited by Shannen Doherty’s response at a panel event at MegaCon Orlando, where she stated that there is no revisionist history happening in the truth. This suggests that there may still be unresolved issues between the cast members.
