Tori Spelling has opened up for the first time about her divorce settlement with Dean McDermott.

The 52-year-old Beverly Hills, 90210 actress shared her thoughts on wrapping up their divorce proceedings in late October. This comes more than two years after she initially filed for divorce and three years following their separation.

Speaking candidly on her podcast, misSPELLING, just two weeks after finalizing the settlement, Spelling described the experience as “quite a journey.”

Her comments follow a recent public appearance where she appeared somewhat somber, marking her first sighting since she and McDermott, who is known for hosting Chopped Canada, reached their settlement agreement.

On her podcast, Spelling declared, “I am officially divorced. It’s been quite a journey. I must say, this was one of the easiest divorces in Hollywood.”

She went on to emphasize, “You can quote me on that. In fact, forget Hollywood—this was one of the easiest divorces, period.”

She also said it was ‘interesting’ that the pair experienced marital woes over two decades together but did not have any during the dissolution of their marriage.

‘It’s so interesting because Dean and I were together 20 years, married 18, and while we had our ups and downs and problems throughout our marriage, we’ve had absolutely no problems throughout the divorce,’ she shared.

She said that the reason the divorce went smoothly is ‘a testament to the two of us and wanting to really step up and be there for the five humans we chose to create out of love and setting a good example.’

Spelling and McDermott married in 2006 and throughout their 18 years of marriage, they welcomed five children together. 

The former couple are parents to Liam, 18, Stella, 17, Hattie, 14, Finn, 13, and eight-year-old Beau. 

McDermott announced their split in June 2023 and Spelling officially filed for divorce in March 2024. 

‘It’s so amicable,’ she continued about their legal separation and co-parenting. ‘We have no drama. This is a drama-free uncoupling and divorce.’

She also revealed that she and her ex settled through mediation instead of in court.

‘Dean and I came out of this divorce with a clean slate. Neither of us asked each other for anything,’ she claimed. 

Spelling had requested for spousal and child support from McDermott, and her request was shown as ‘ordered’ in court documents. 

In her filing on November 3, she cited irreconcilable differences for their separation and listed their official date of separation as June 17, 2023. 

On her podcast, she said she and her ex intend to set ‘a great example of how families can divorce, uncouple and lead by example and still be there for their family.’ She emphasized that their children are ‘the most important’ thing to them. 

‘Dean and I will remain friends,’ she continued. ‘We get on better now than we did in our marriage. 

She insisted: ‘We get along better now, uncoupled, unpartnered, just as two humans that are friends, that genuinely love and care about each other and care about our kids. 

‘There is nothing messy about it,’ she added.

She said that her ex-husband ‘will always be one of my life partners.’ 

‘He is my human of sorts, and I love him very much, and he loves me very much. And our children seeing that, it kind of takes the nasty connotation of divorce off the table.’
