Actress Jennie Garth is still grappling with the loss of her close friend, Luke Perry. The iconic star of "Beverly Hills, 90210" recently revealed that she finds it challenging to look at Luke’s son, Jack Perry, because he bears an uncanny resemblance to his late father.
During an interview with Access Hollywood, the 47-year-old Jennie spoke candidly about her emotions. "Isn't he just stunning?" she remarked about the 22-year-old Jack on February 26. "I sometimes catch myself staring at him when we're together. He reminds me so much of Luke when we first met, and he was just starting out." Jennie's heartfelt words paint a vivid picture of the emotional connection she still feels for her departed friend.
