Holly Marie Combs and Rose McGowan have come forward to defend their former co-star Shannen Doherty after Alyssa Milano's recent comments at a Charmed panel. Combs, in an Instagram video, expressed her disappointment in Milano for denying claims that she got Doherty fired from the hit WB series. Combs reaffirmed that their recollection of events is accurate and criticized Milano for not wanting people to know the truth. Combs also criticized the show's producers for keeping the trio divided instead of united. McGowan, who defended Doherty alongside Combs at a separate panel at the MegaCon convention, offered her support in the comments section of Combs' post. Doherty, who is battling Stage 4 cancer, addressed Milano's comments about her exit from the show, calling them hurtful and highlighting the importance of telling the truth. Milano maintained that the final decision on Doherty's firing was made by the show's network and creator.
