LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Sophie Perry, daughter of the late Luke Perry, has honored her father's 'Beverly Hills, 90210' co-star Shannen Doherty with a heartfelt tribute on social media.

This comes after Doherty's fans shared how they were glad she would be "reunited" with her ‘Beverly Hills, 90210’ co-star Perry who died of a stroke in 2019. The two had played lovers in the iconic series.

A social media user wrote, “What an inspiration. I didn’t get into 90210 and Charmed until several years ago but Shannen quickly became my favorite on both shows. I was gonna meet her at @fanexpochicago next month and I was so excited. She was so strong. Glad she’s reunited with Luke.”

Doherty, who battled breast cancer for nine years, died on July 13 at the age of 53.

Sophie added a white heart emoji to accompany the emotional post, which resonated deeply with fans of the iconic 90s show.

Luke Perry, who portrayed Dylan McKay, and Shannen Doherty, who played Brenda Walsh, captured the hearts of fans worldwide with their roles as love interests on 'Beverly Hills, 90210'.

Their onscreen chemistry and offscreen friendship endured through the years, making their bond both memorable and cherished.

Shannen Doherty's death has prompted an outpouring of tributes from colleagues and fans alike, including Gabrielle Carteris.

Carteris, who played Andrea in the iconic series, said, "I know Luke is there with open arms to love you," in her tribute.

In February, during a panel at MegaCon Orlando, Doherty became emotional as she recounted learning about Perry's death in 2019. “It was shocking,” she said, describing the loss of her friend and co-star.

Doherty, who was battling stage 4 cancer, admitted that she never expected to outlive Perry. "I have a very visceral reaction whenever someone brings up Luke because as someone with cancer— and a really horrible cancer at stage 4 — I thought I would be the first to go. So when it was Luke, it really just sent me for a tailspin."

Following Perry's death, Doherty finally found the strength to post a tribute to him on social media.

"Yesterday morning I got a phone call that devastated me," she began in the caption with obvious emotion to her words.

"I'm struggling with this loss and am having a hard time with my thoughts. But, my heart goes out to his family and friends who were blessed by his light in their (and mine) lives. Processing this is impossible right now."

Doherty revealed that she and Perry were eager to create new onscreen magic together and were actively searching for the right project.

"There is a special kind of love one has for each other when you are experiencing the journey we did on 90210 and of course life in general," Doherty said, before revealing, "Luke and I were working on show ideas for us. We wanted to work with each other again and create something special and meaningful for our fans at this stage in our lives."

She added, "I will miss him everyday. Every minute. Every second."
