LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Shannen Doherty and her separated husband have very different memories of how and when they split up. His account contradicts the infidelity she claims on her podcast, but Shannen is sticking to 'the truth'.

Shannen garnered media attention last week when she said during an appearance on her brand-new podcast, 'Let's Be Clear', that she underwent brain tumor surgery as soon as she discovered Kurt Iswarienko 'had been carrying on an affair for two years' and that their 11-year marriage was 'essentially over', as reported by TMZ.

Shannen and Kurt have been living apart

Shannen's story is being disputed by sources close to Kurt, who told TMZ that before Shannen had surgery in January 2023, they had been living apart for two years and that he had been honest about dating someone else while they were apart.

On her podcast, Shannen said ... "I went into that surgery early in the morning and I went in after I found out that my marriage was essentially over ... I felt so betrayed.”

But according to our sources, Kurt informed Shannen about his new relationship just after the 2023 New Year's holiday. According reports, Shannen fainted a few days after Kurt told her about the other woman. At that point, she was referred for an MRI, whereupon the medical staff found her brain tumor, and she underwent surgery.

Shannen labeled Kurt claims as 'an absolute lie'

The version of events is being thoroughly refuted by Shannen, who labeled it 'an absolute lie' on her Instagram page on Tuesday night, accusing Kurt's associates of attempting to hide the truth.

Kurt's close associates claim that, at the time the tumor was discovered, Shannen was in California, and he was residing in Texas. However, on the morning of the surgery, she informed him that she didn't want him to be there. He then flew back and accompanied her to her doctor's visits.

Although Shannen's claim that Kurt had been quietly scheming her is untrue, our sources believe that the timing was undoubtedly problematic.

Shannen filed for divorce in April, despite the fact that her representative, Leslie.

'Divorce is the last thing Shannen wanted'

Sloane said, "Divorce is the last thing Shannen wanted. Unfortunately, she felt she was left with no other option. You can contact Kurt's agent, Collier Grimm at PICTUREKID as she is intimately involved."

Although, the new woman Kurt revealed to Shannen was Collier, and they're still dating, according to sources.

Shannen and Kurt married in 2011, and she was diagnosed with cancer in 2015. According to our sources, he was there for her during her early diagnosis, treatments, and medical visits.

According to reports, Shannon's treatments succeeded initially, but the cancer returned, and by late 2020, their marriage was no longer working... with the COVID epidemic having a role.

According to our sources, Kurt still wanted to be a part of her life and rented residences in her neighborhood from January 2021 to July 2021 as they tried to straighten things out – but when they couldn't, he relocated to Austin and eventually met Collier.

Again, Shannen asserts that 'truth matters', and she intends to provide more of it in relation to Kurt and his alleged affair.
