As a former co-star of Megan's in the iconic film Beverly Hills 90210, Shannon Doherty did not hold back in expressing her preferences for her funeral guest list.
During the podcast conversation, which was described as a mix of morbid and lighthearted, Shannon Doherty engaged with her best friend and the executor of her will, Chris Cortazzo.

I don't know if anyone's actually good at funerals.

Expressing her desire for a selective guest list, Shannon hinted at individuals she would rather not have in attendance, with Meghan Markle being a notable mention.
Shannon expressed concerns about the potential media attention that could accompany Meghan's presence, alluding to the Duchess of Sussex's penchant for seeking the limelight, even in sensitive settings like funerals.
Shannon articulated her reservations, noting, “There are a lot of people that I think would show up that I don't want there.”
