Shannen Doherty finalized her divorce to ex-husband Kurt Iswarienko one day before her death

Just one day before she passed away, Shannen Doherty consented to finalize her divorce from her ex-husband Kurt Iswarienko.

Numerous media sources report that on July 12, documents indicating the couple’s agreement to a “default or uncontested dissolution” of their marriage were filed, implying that they had decided to have their divorce procedures handled out of court.

People reported that the paperwork said, “The parties have entered into a written agreement regarding their property and their marriage or domestic partnership rights, including support, the original of which is being submitted to the court.”

Along with signing papers, the former Charmed star also forfeited her claim to spousal support.

She said, “I knowingly give up forever any right to receive support from my spouse or other family members.”

On July 13, Iswarienko signed the paperwork, marking the day Doherty passed away following a protracted fight with cancer.

In April 2023, Doherty filed for divorce from Iswarienko following an 11-year marriage.

Even though Doherty desired a divorce, her representative Leslie Sloane said that “she felt she was left with no other option.”

After the actress asked for spousal assistance, there was a heated divorce.

Doherty claimed in June 2024 that Iswarienko was protracteding the divorce and “intentionally delaying settlement in hopes” that she would pass away from cancer before the divorce could be finalized.

She wrote in the court filing, “It is just not right that Kurt be allowed to drag out our divorce in the hopes that I pass away before he has to pay me while he lives his life and shirks his responsibilities to his dying wife of more than 11 years.”

Kurt isn’t just “waiting for Shannen to die,” according to Katherine Heersema, his attorney. “He wants Shannen to have the best possible outcome and for them both to be able to move on from this case.”
