Alyssa Milano's Un-"Charmed" Marriage
by Joal Ryan

The Shannen Doherty curse strikes again?

One day after Doherty's ex-90210 costar Jason Priestley confirmed a separation with his spouse of less than one year, Doherty's current Charmed costar Alyssa Milano has filed for divorce for her spouse of less than one year.

Did we mention Doherty was a bridesmaid at Milano's New Year's Day nuptials?

Anyway, Milano, who turns 27 on December 19, filed the paperwork for the Big D Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court. Irreconcilable differences (natch) were cited.

The ousted husband is musician Cinjun Tate of the little-known rock band Remy Zero. The two wed January 1 at a bed-and-breakfast in Louisiana. According to the divorce filing, the couple separated on November 20.

If you're keeping score at home, that means the two were married 10 months before they drove each other to different domiciles; 11 months before they drove Milano to her lawyer.

Priestley's split (termed a non-legal trial separation) came less than 10 months after his wedding to makeup artist Ashlee Peterson. In 1994, Doherty formally cut ties to sometime-actor Ashley Hamilton after seven months of marriage.

To date, the Doherty-Priestley-Milano triangle has produced wedded unions that endure, on average, 9.3 months.

Since 1998, Doherty and Milano have played witchy siblings on the WB fantasy series, Charmed. From 1990-94, Doherty played witchy sibling Brenda to Priestley's wise Brandon on Fox's Beverly Hills, 90210.


If her break up mirrors that of Jason Priestly's, her next step is to get drunk and crash her car.
