Shannen Doherty and Jason Priestley played twins Brenda and Brandon Walsh on the massively popular “Beverly Hills, 90210.”<\/p>\n
Now, more than 30 years after the show premiered, the actors are still friendly. Priestley appeared on Doherty’s podcast, “Let’s Be Clear,” and in their conversation Doherty touched on her early departure from the show.<\/p>\n
After the fourth season of the show, she left the series. Speaking to Priestley, she explains, “I was in a really horrible marriage, and there were things transpiring in that marriage that made it very hard for me to consistently be on time for work.”<\/p>\n

It sucks, right, because it means you’re now going to work longer hours. You’re going to be there for 17 hours as opposed to only 15 hours hopefully, or 14 hours.”<\/p>\n
Doherty took responsibility for her tardiness, saying, “It wasn’t anybody’s responsibility but mine,” but added that she still wished she would have been told what consequences she could have faced ahead of being fired.<\/p>\n

Priestley, who Doherty recalled was dubbed the show’s “quarterback” by producers, told her that he wished she could have been more open about her home situation, so he could have handled the issue with “more compassion and caring.”<\/p>\n

Shannen Doherty claims a bad marriage and partying with Tori Spelling were some of the factors that led to her frequent absences.<\/span> (Getty Images)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n“I do blame myself because I should have had my personal life more together, I should have left a relationship earlier, I shouldn’t have been going out. \u2026 I got definitely affected by the attention, and all of a sudden I could go in a nightclub, and it didn’t matter how old I was. I found it all very seductive and alluring and I fell into that trap,” she explained.<\/p>\n
She theorized that maybe she was “embarrassed” by what was happening and that’s why she didn’t open up to Priestley about the circumstances \u2014 she noted that they had a close relationship then.<\/p>\n
