Shannen Doherty's powerful final act before passing

Shannen Doherty agreed to settle her divorce with ex-husband Kurt Iswarienko just one day before her death. 

According to court documents obtained by Page Six on Monday, the former 90210 star agreed to waive spousal support and to a "default or uncontested dissolution" of their marriage, indicating that the former couple settled their split outside of court. 

While Doherty signed the agreement on Friday, July 12, her ex-husband signed it on Saturday July 13 - the day the actress lost her nine-year-long battle with breast cancer

“It is the mutual wish and desire of the parties to effect a full, complete, and final settlement of all their respective property interests, future and present, by this Judgement, and … completely resolve any and all issues relating to division of property, reimbursement claims and/or credits, spousal support, and attorneys’ fees and costs,” the documents reportedly state.

Not long after Doherty passed away, her friend Tara Furiani called out Iswarienko for his lack of "humanity" during his and Doherty's bitter divorce battle which began in April 2023. 

She claimed that he was "dragging his feet” so he wouldn’t have to pay her.

“Life is so hard … life is extra hard with cancer and without the support you thought you’d have,” Furiani shared.

“If you have the opportunity to be a decent person, take it. You have no idea what people are dealing with and going through.”

Iswarienko's lawyer has previously rejected all claims that Iswarienko was delaying the divorce alleging that he wanted to finalise it in September 2023 with a settlement deal, which she denied because he “skirted around” how much he earned in the early aughts of their marriage.

The former couple married in 2011, before the actress filed for divorce last year in light of his infidelity.
