AceShowbiz - Tori Spelling, the "Beverly Hills, 90210" alum, has shared her doubts about her recent decision to file for divorce from Dean McDermott after 18 years of marriage. In a podcast episode, she questioned the long-term impact on their five children of remaining in an unhappy marriage.
Spelling admitted moments of wondering if she should have stayed, acknowledging the benefits of a stable family environment. However, she also expressed concerns about the negative effects of living in a home filled with "so much unhappiness, so much anger."
Spelling questioned the notion that parents should always stay together for the sake of their children. She believes that relationships can "break" due to the strains of parenting and that it's possible for parents to have multiple "soulmates" in different chapters of their lives.
The actress revealed that she and McDermott haven't shared a bed for three years, a decision initiated by her ex-husband. She denied claims that a pig sparked the separation, explaining that it had only slept in their bed for one night on veterinary advice.
Both Spelling and McDermott have seemingly moved on in their romantic lives. Spelling sparked dating rumor with Ryan Cramer in November while McDermott is currently dating Lily Calo. Determined to keep a civil relationship with her ex, Spelling admits having "family dinners" with McDermott and Calo.
