Shannen Doherty Shares How She Completed This “Bucket List” Activity With Her Cancer Doctor

Shannen Doherty had a “crazy” encounter with jellyfish while vacationing on a yacht in this Mediterranean country as part of her bucket list trip.

Shannen Doherty has just returned from a trip of a lifetime.

In the midst of her struggle with cancer, which has spread to her brain and bones, the Beverly Hills, 90210 star recently traveled on a journey to Italy with her oncologist Dr. Lawrence Piro.

“You invited me on this amazing yacht and with your family,” Doherty said on the first edition of her Let’s Be Clear podcast, which aired on January 1. “And I got to go to Italy with you, which was like bucket list.”

The 52-year-old Charmed actress revealed that her doctor was aware that it was on her bucket list.

“When you called me, you said, ‘It’s kind of bucket list, Shan,’ And I was like, ‘It is!'” Doherty remembered. “I was so excited.”

Overall, the actress stated that she had “such a good time” on her trip, which included swimming in the water and dining at local eateries.

Dr. Piro described Doherty as “just incredible, like jumping off every level of the yacht, even the highest.” Shannen is unafraid.”

Doherty did, however, admit to injuring herself one night while trying to escape getting stung by a “crazy” jellyfish encounter.

“You jump off like the highest points of this ginormous yacht and you go to climb back on,” she told me, “and I got scared of the jellyfish, so I went the long way and the dangerous way, and that’s when I gave myself that that big bump on my leg.”

Her oncologist stated that during the night swim, the team shone a bright light into the sea, illuminating all the jellyfish they were unaware were present during the day.

“I didn’t see them when I did the jump,” stated Doherty. “It’s like jumping in shark-infested waters—like, I never would have done it had I known.”

Nonetheless, she was appreciative for the “amazing trip.”
