Both Jennie and Tori took to social media to remember Shannen Doherty shortly after she died.

“In a world where we often don’t get to make up with the childhood friendships that formed so much of the adult you become, we got that chance,” Tori Spelling wrote in a heartfelt post on Instagram.

She continued, “I’m grateful @theshando and I got to go back in time as adult friends and remember why we truly loved each other to begin with. To reminisce. And, to iconically laugh again like we used to. No one could make me laugh like that. Core laughs!”

Tori went on to call Shannen “a rebel in an era when most women didn’t feel comfortable being strong.” She also mentioned how her 90210 costar always had such a great sense of humor and recalled that she made the best Frito pie.

Concluding her social media tribute, Tori wrote, “Shan… I’ll carry the torch on. Take on my power! And, I’ll stay rebellious for you. Love you with all my heart. Always.”
