State Farm Claims Shannen Doherty is Using Cancer Diagnosis for 'Sympathy' in Legal Documents

State Farm alleged Shannen Doherty is using cancer diagnosis for sympathy.

It was devastating to find out 'Beverly Hills, 90210' actress, Shannen Doherty, is diagnosed with stage four breast cancer and dying, as she stated on her report. But still, on her difficult time, State Farm thinks the BH:90210 actress used her cancer diagnosis to gain sympathy in a legal document.

On her defense, the actress explained the legal documents would disclose her cancer diagnosis anyways, so, rather than people knowing it from the reports, she wanted the public to know from her first.

The Beverly Hills: 90210 actress further added she paid out of her pocket for losses, which she believes, otherwise should have been covered by the insurance policy.

Doherty said, "My house was severely damaged. You walked into the house, and it just reeked of smoke. I tried, I communicated with my insurance company.

While State Farm revealed, a statement filed, the actress, which read, "plaintiff's plan at trial to garner sympathy by her contention that State Farm must rebuild her entire house because she has breast cancer and COPD."
