Tori Spelling Shares How Late Friend Shannen Doherty Is Motivating Her On ‘Dancing With The Stars’

Gone, but never forgotten. Tori Spelling is holding the memory of her late friend Shannen Doherty close as she begins an exciting new chapter. The “Beverly Hills, 90210” alum is hitting the “Dancing with the Stars” ballroom with pro partner Pasha Pashkov, and Tori shared with Access Hollywood how Shannen’s advice is motivating her through grief. “It’s definitely been incredibly hard losing Shan recently,” she said. “But I believe that she would want me to turn my power on. She kept telling me, ‘You have it in you. It’s time.’ She would say, ‘It’s time. You turn your power on now.’ So, yeah. That’s in me.” The actress also revealed how her five children are reacting to her appearance on the reality competition, and she and Pasha tease how they’re sizing up their competition so far! Season 33 of “Dancing with the Stars” premieres Sept. 17 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC and Disney+ and will stream the next day on Hulu.
