According to Daily Mail - Home, Shannen Doherty described being in a really horrible marriage with Ashley Hamilton, and there were things that were transpiring in that marriage that made it really hard for her to be on time for work. She explained that she was occasionally afraid to leave the house for fear her husband would purchase drugs. Doherty said her tardiness to the set 'became a very big problem for the rest of you, as it should be.' According to Daily Mail - Home, Doherty also described that it wasn't anybody's responsibility but hers, but she sort of wished she would have been sat down and sort of looked at and told that the end result would be getting fired and that none of them were willing to put up with it anymore.

I was in a really horrible marriage, and there were things that were transpiring in that marriage that made it really hard for me to be on time for work.

It wasn't anybody's responsibility but mine, but I sort of wish I would have been sat down and sort of looked at and said: 'Listen, the end result is going to be this - you are going to get fired and none of us are willing to put up with it anymore.'
