Shannen Doherty has criticized ex-husband Kurt Iswarienko’s spending habits in a new request for spousal support.
The 53-year-old former Beverly Hills, 90210 star filed paperwork in Los Angeles on Friday, June 14, according to Us Magazine.
In her filing, the actress is requesting $15,343 in monthly support ‘retroactive to June 1, 2024.’
She has also asked that 49-year-old photographer contribute $9,100 to her legal fees.
Doherty, who is facing a cancer battle, stated, ‘As a result of my recurrent health issues, I have been largely unable to work and have no future employment prospects. Today, virtually all of the income I earn is residual income from work that I performed prior to marriage.’

She continued in the filing: ‘The majority of my residual income is from a television show called Charmed.
‘I recently learned that Charmed will no longer be streaming on any major streaming platform after June 30, 2024. As a result, my future residual income will dramatically decrease.’
It was also noted that the television star has not worked since 2022.
Shannen believes her ex-husband, to whom she was married from 2011-2023, has the resources to contribute to her medical expenses.
In 2023 the cost totaled $21,640 and she expects it will ‘dramatically increase’ when she is no longer granted SAG health insurance as a result of not working.
Doherty argued in court paperwork that Kurt has put his lifestyle above all else.
‘While I have been unable to work, incurring exorbitant medical expenses not covered by insurance to undergo experimental treatments in hopes of prolonging my life, Kurt has been utilizing the airplane, spending thousands of dollars at medical spas, jewelry stores, Gucci, and on flights for his ‘agent,’ while simultaneously claiming that he has insufficient funds with which to support me,’ she expressed.
The performer has alleged that Iswarienko’s agent, Collier Grimm, is also his romantic partner.

‘Although Kurt’s income is substantially more than mine, he has not made any temporary spousal support payments and has made no contributions to my attorneys’ or accounting fees and costs since the time our divorce action was filed,’ Shannen stated.
It was also noted that Iswarienko has not provided the necessary documents to evaluate his earning capacity, assets and income.
She has subsequently filed a Motion to Compel.
The Hollywood veteran has requested another $11,800 from Iswarienko for the fees she says she’s incurred ‘in efforts to obtain Kurt’s complete responses.’
Doherty shared in the documents: ‘It is abundantly clear to me that Kurt is intentionally delaying settlement in hopes that I will not survive the divorce proceedings.’

Shannen is battling stage four brain cancer
Last year, Doherty announced that her cancer had spread to her brain in an Instagram post that showed her undergoing radiation therapy.
First diagnosed with breast cancer — which included the presence of multiple tumors — in 2015, the Charmed alum had a single mastectomy in May 2016.
It was followed by chemotherapy treatments and radiotherapy.
By 2017, Doherty announced that her cancer was in remission. But in February 2020, she revealed the cancer had returned in 2019, and that she was in stage four.
