Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott have been through a lot over the years, and it looks like they are having problems once again. After Dean’s cheating scandal, Tori was able to forgive him and take him back. It took a while, but Tori and Dean have really seemed like they were on the right track once again. Radar Online shared that now Dean McDermott is not sure his wife, Tori Spelling, is really battling with migraines as bad as she says it is, and he is doubting her. Dean was home with the kids by himself while Tori was in the hospital, which, of course, wasn’t easy on him.
Tori just spent some time hospitalized over a migraine, and Dean was home taking care of their four children, plus his son Jack who lives with them now, on his own. Now, a source is revealing that Dean is really unsure that Tori is that bad.
“As soon as Tori got home, she went straight to bed. Dean had been on his own with the kids for days, and was frustrated. He doesn’t think the migraines are as bad as Tori says, and doesn’t believe she needs to go to the hospital.”
The source went on to explain that Tori Spelling has used 10 different doctors over the last few years. The source shared that Tori and Dean started to fight when she got home, and Tori even threatened to head back to the hospital. Spelling has actually been in the hospital at least three different times this year for her migraines.
The Hollywood Gossip shared that Tori Spelling was hospitalized over Valentine’s Day and actually ended up being there for a week. Tori’s inner circle seems to think that the migraines are being caused by stress. There has been a lot going on for Tori and Dean. They recently moved his son Jack in to live with them. Tori and Dean had to downsize and move into a new home because of financial issues. They moved from Calabasas and into a much smaller rental property in middle-class Encino.
Tori and Dean have also been dealing with some money issues. American Express filed a lawsuit against Tori for a bill that is unpaid. Neither one of them have been working very much, and no matter what they do, they can’t get another reality show to get picked up. They have done a few specials on The Cooking Channel, and Tori did land a role in the remake of the movie Mother, May I Sleep With Danger? It just isn’t enough work to keep the couple living the lifestyle that they are used to living when they had an income all the time from acting jobs and reality shows.
Spelling was in a private room at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles for nearly an entire week, and a source shared that “[t]hey had her on IVs for hydration and medicine for the headache.” At this time, Tori Spelling isn’t sharing much with her fans at all about what is going on with her health. The fact that she was in the hospital for an entire week has everyone wondering if there could be more to Tori’s health problems than she is letting on.
Are you shocked to hear that Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott are having marriage problems again? Do you think that these two can find a way to make it work? Sound off in the comments below with your thoughts.
