Tori Spelling isn’t delaying thoughts of another walk down the aisle until her divorce from Dean McDermott is finalized.
During the second episode of her “misSPELLING” podcast, Spelling entertained the idea of remarriage when asked about it following her divorce filing from McDermott, 57, last month.
“I do love planning a wedding. J. Lo did it how many times? Four times? There you go. Sure,”
Spelling, 50, replied on Monday, April 8.
Spelling cited examples like Jennifer Lopez and Elizabeth Taylor, who had multiple marriages, suggesting she’s open to the possibility of another wedding.
While a voice (likely an iHeartRadio producer) suggested that Spelling shouldn’t prioritize marriage at the moment, she expressed her discomfort with being alone.
“You say this all the time. … ‘Be with yourself. Be happy with yourself.’ I don’t want to be with myself,” Spelling said. “I haven’t been alone, honestly, I still don’t poop alone. Beau [her 7-year-old son] still stands there and stares and talks to me while I’m pooping.
It’s like, I don’t know. I haven’t pooped, peed alone in 18 years. First it was Dean, then it was kids. I don’t know. I think I function better with people. Is that codependent? … Cool. Redefine it.”
Spelling and McDermott tied the knot in 2006 after meeting on the set of a Lifetime movie. Before McDermott, Spelling was married to Charlie Shanian in 2004. They separated when Spelling got together with McDermott, who was then married to Mary Jo Eustace. They share five children: Liam, 17, Stella, 15, Hattie, 12, Finn, 11, and Beau, 7.
Spelling filed for divorce after McDermott announced their separation via social media in June 2023. She recounted the final fight and her daughter Stella discovering the statement on Instagram.
“I mean, he’s threatened [divorce] a million times. I don’t think I’ve ever threatened that ever, and there were times where I desperately wanted it, but I would never throw that in someone’s face if I didn’t actually mean it. I thought it was another fight,”
Spelling said, recalling an argument that led to her throwing a baked potato from Wendy’s at the floor. McDermott later disclosed that he was struggling with substance abuse and sought treatment at the time.
