Tori Spelling Talks About Being A Single Mom
Following her split, Spelling opened up about what it is like to be the primary caretaker in her household.
"Being a single mom and they're with me, and their dad and I are super amicable and, you know, working through everything for the futures of separate families, but the kids live with me," Spelling said on her podcast. "I'm the primary caretaker and, as a single mom providing for them, there's times when I'm working and I'm hustling. In the last three months, I've really been working my butt off, and I'm super grateful for that work."
"But it's like, it's been constant, and there were days, you know, my kids range from 17 to 7. The 17-year-old, a 16-year-old, a 13-year-old, a 12-year-old, and a 7-year-old. And to be honest, and she calls herself this, my 16-year-old, who is my eldest daughter, has always said, I'm the second mom, and she really is,” Spelling continued.

He recalled, as reported by Fox News, "What I remember is going by [Spelling's then-boyfriend and their former co-star] Vincent [Young]'s house to see you multiple days after we wrapped and trying to keep a connection going. But it got to the point where I just never got that from you."
He continued, "And then I remember being at the '90210' DVD release party and you were married to [now-estranged husband] Dean [McDermott] and I was with [now-ex-wife] Megan [Fox] when we were still just dating — you guys got there, and you never said hello to me once. I just kept missing you guys, and then you were gone."
The Two Have Since Revived Their Friendship
Despite the challenges of the past, Spelling and Green have repaired their friendship.
Speaking on her misSpelling podcast in April 2024, Spelling described their bond as being like "brother and sister," highlighting their deep connection and newfound openness with each other.
