“Shannen Doherty Drops Bombshell Revelation on Charmed Exit! Fired Despite Quit Claim – Exclusive Podcast Confession with Holly Marie Combs!”
In the latest episode of the “Let’s Be Clear with Shannen Doherty” podcast released on Monday, the actress decided to be honest about her departure from the cherished WB series. Doherty, in a second interview with her former “Charmed” co-star, Holly Marie Combs, confessed that she was terminated from the show, contrary to her previous claim of voluntarily leaving after its third season in 2001.
“My representatives, I remember them looking at me at the time and said, ‘No, no, no, your career won’t survive another firing, so we’re just going to say that you chose to leave.’ I remember I started laughing, going, ‘Who is going to believe that I’m crazy enough to leave a hit show?'”

Doherty further explained her decision to disclose the truth about her departure, stating, “One can’t keep telling the same story over and over and over again, when it’s not the truth.”
In the course of the episode, Combs recounted a conversation with “Charmed” producer Jonathan Levin, who allegedly informed her that Alyssa Milano had threatened to sue for a hostile workplace environment if Doherty wasn’t dismissed from the show.
“He said, you know, ‘We’re basically in a position where it’s one or the other. We were told [by Alyssa] that it’s [Shannen] or me, and Alyssa has threatened to sue us for a hostile workplace environment,’” Combs shared, highlighting how Milano had meticulously documented instances of discomfort on set with a mediator, building a case for herself.
