Jennie Garth recently appeared in public, sparking concern among fans after the passing of her “Beverly Hills, 90210” co-star Shannen Doherty. The two had a famously tense relationship on set but reconciled in recent years.

Jennie shared a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, writing, “I am still processing my tremendous grief… our connection was real and honest.”

A few days after Shannen’s death, Jennie was seen in public looking somber. Social media users expressed concern over her appearance, with one commenting, “Hope she’s okay. RIP Shannen.”
