In a stunning turn of events, Hollywood actress, Tori Spelling, best known for her role in “Beverly Hills, 90210,” has filed for divorce from her husband of nearly 18 years. The news sent shockwaves through Tinseltown, leaving fans and gossip columnists alike buzzing with speculation.
Shocking Split!
Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott first crossed paths back in 2005 on the set of the TV movie, “Mind Over Murder.” Their on-screen chemistry quickly translated into real-life romance, culminating in a beautiful wedding ceremony in Fiji the following year.
However, on Friday, March 29, 2024, Spelling, 50, officially lodged her petition for divorce in Los Angeles Superior Court, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason behind the split. According to court documents, the couple has been living separate lives since June 17, 2023, leaving many wondering what led to the demise of their seemingly picture-perfect marriage.
Custody Battle Looms Over Their Five Children
But that’s not all. The plot thickens as Spelling is reportedly seeking sole physical custody and joint legal custody of their five children, whose ages range from 7 to 17. Physical custody determines where the children will primarily reside, and legal custody is all about major life decisions. But will McDermott put up a fight? Only time will tell as the drama unfolds in the courtroom. With such a large brood at stake, the custody battle is sure to be a hot topic of discussion among Hollywood circles.
Seeking Spousal Support and Legal Coverage
Adding fuel to the fire, Spelling is also seeking spousal support from McDermott, along with coverage for her legal fees. While the dollar amount remains undisclosed, it’s clear that the actress is not backing down without a fight.
As tongues wag and rumors swirl, one thing’s for sure: this celebrity split is bound to be a headline-maker for weeks to come.
