Alyssa Milano took to social media on Sunday to gush about a Charmed cast reunion, which she was notably absent from.
The 50-year-old actress, who was an original member of the Charmed cast, shared a photo of Shannen Doherty, Rose McGowan and Holly Marie Combs at the 90s Con.
Despite the alleged feud and drama that has ensued between the women since the show began, Milano praised the reunion.
She captioned the post: “So happy for the OG Charmed fans. What a gift! #90sCongress.’
The actresses were joined on the Charmed panel by Brian Krause, Dorian Gregory and Drew Fuller. Milano was the only missing original cast member.

They all attended the 90’s Convention on Sunday, March 19th, which was held in Hartford, Connecticut.
In the photo, Doherty, 51, McGowan, 49, and Combs, 49, all sat together on a couch with microphones in hand.
Each woman had a smile on her face as they seemed to enjoy both the event and each other’s company.
Charmed ran from 1998 to 2006 and followed the three Halliwell sisters – played by Doherty, Combs and Milano – who discover they are witches.
After season three, Doherty shocked audiences when she left the series amid an alleged feud with Milano and her character, Prue Halliwell, was killed.
Rose McGowan then joined the show in season four amid Doherty’s absence, playing her long-lost half-sister Paige Matthews for four seasons.
Doherty, McGowan, and Combs were never all seen on screen together, due to an old character and a new one coming in and out.
However, Milano was part of the show from start to finish, which is why fans are equally shocked by her absence and the other three women who are spotted on stage together.

Another dedicated fan said: “I’m so happy!! But we all ask you… why weren’t you there?’
After Doherty’s exit from the show in 2001, she spoke briefly to Entertainment Tonight about her decision.
“There was too much drama on set and not enough passion for the work,” she said.
In October 2022, Milano spoke to Entertainment Tonight about her current relationship with Doherty.
“I would say we’re cordial,” the Brazen actress shared.
“You know, I could take responsibility for a lot of the tensions we had. I think a lot of our struggle came from feeling like I was in competition and not from that sisterhood that the show was so much about. And I have some guilt for my part in it.’
She added that they reconnected after Doherty was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015.

While Milano and Doherty’s feud has been widely publicized since their departure from the show, rumors of tension between Milano and McGowan have also been swirling since 2018.
Amid the #MeToo movement, McGowan called Milano “a lie” for her involvement with the organization Time’s Up.
Milano responded to McGowan’s comments in a statement, which said: “I fully support Rose and have always supported her and admire her courage and speaking out about her experiences.
“My goal over the past few months with #MeToo and the TimesUp movement has been to use my platform to give others a voice so we can all work together to eradicate sexual harassment and assault.”
Months later, Milano then said that she did not consider the comments McGowan made against her to be hateful.
‘[I don’t] see that as the same as hate,” she told US Weekly at the time.
“I see this as a beautiful soul who was hurt so much that she spoke out of that pain. And I understand.’
