Their Relationship
Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott had a rollercoaster marriage, with McDermott confessing to cheating on his wife in 2014. Despite their difficulties, the couple tried to work on their relationship and rebuild their marriage. In 2016, Spelling told People that they were not only still together but also bonded and solidified as a couple. She also shared that they had to start over and completely rebuild their relationship.
The couple tied the knot in May 2006 and renewed their vows in 2010. They have five children together, including daughters Stella (14) and Hattie (11) and sons Liam (16), Finn Davey (10), and Beau Dean (6). Tori Spelling gave birth to their fifth and final child in 2017, which she revealed had taken her by surprise, but they had always wanted a big family.
Interestingly, McDermott’s announcement came only hours after Tori had posted photos of Stella and the entire family, including Dean, to celebrate Stella’s birthday at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles. In the photos, they looked like a regular family unit, posing poolside and beaming for the camera.
