Brenda Walsh is not dying. Let's get that out of the way up front.

Despite rumors that the beloved 90210 character would be given a terminal illness, we've received reports that Brenda will be suffering through a different medical crisis.

Sources close the series say she'll be dealing with fertility issues when the show returns with new episodes on January 6, something that should at least keep Brenda's mind off her latest foray into bed with the wrong man.

Oops, she did it again. Brenda admitted to Kelly last night that she slept with Ryan.
