Victoria Davey "Tori" Spelling
(born May 16, 1973) is an American actress. She is best
known for being Aaron Spelling's daughter; in acting she
is known for her role as Donna Martin in the 1990s teen
soap opera Beverly Hills, 90210.
Early life: Spelling was born in Los Angeles,
California, the daughter of Candy Marer (born Carole
Gene Marer) and Aaron Spelling, a famed television
producer with the ABC network in the 1970s. Both of
Spelling's parents were Jewish, though her family
celebrated both Christmas and Hanukkah while she was
growing up.
She attended Beverly Hills High School
in Beverly Hills, California but a graduate of
Harvard-Westlake School. Her brother, Randy Spelling, is
an actor as well.
Career: Spelling appeared in a number of guest
roles (mostly in her father's shows) such as The Love
Boat, T.J. Hooker, Hotel, Fantasy Island, Vega$, and
Saved by the Bell before landing a regular part in
Beverly Hills 90210, a series co-produced by her father
and Darren Star.
Since 90210 went off the air, Spelling has worked
primarily on independent films including Trick and The
House of Yes, although she has appeared in small roles
in big budget films, including Scream 2 and Scary Movie
2, and in TV shows, including Smallville. In 2006,
Spelling was also the star of the VH1 celebreality
sitcom-based reality show called So NoTORIous, which
parodied her public image.
Spelling has started her own business, which sells
clothing for dogs. In January 2007, she and her second
husband purchased a bed & breakfast in Fallbrook,
California (a rural community about 100 miles from Los
Angeles, 50 miles from San Diego and just south of
Temecula wine country), which is the basis of a new
reality show that premiered on the Oxygen network on
March 20, 2007, called Tori & Dean: Inn Love.
The Village News of Fallbrook, California, has reported
that Spelling did not actually purchase the inn.
Personal life: On July 3, 2004, Spelling married
Charlie Shanian. However, in December 2005, Spelling
separated from first husband, Shanian, after 14 months
of marriage. They were legally divorced on April 20,
2006 and she became engaged to McDermott.
Both married at the time, Spelling and
McDermott were co-stars of the TV movie Mind Over Murder
and met on set. McDermott also filed for divorce from
his spouse, Mary Jo Eustace, with whom he has two
children: Jack Montgomery (b. October 10, 1998) and Lola
(b. July 27, 2005). Spelling married McDermott in Fiji
on May 7, 2006. The wedding was held on the beach and
they were both barefoot.
During an appearance at the 2006 MuchMusic Video Awards
in Toronto on June 18th, Spelling addressed Eustace's
recently published tell-all book. While onstage with
Matte Babel, Spelling was asked if she found it better
dating a Canadian. Spelling replied "...they are
much nicer and have nasty ex-wives who write tell-all
books". In December 2006, Spelling stated that she
wanted to write her memoir, to be published by Simon
& Schuster in the spring of 2008.
After her father's death on June 23, 2006, Spelling was
anticipated to inherit a sizable portion of her father's
$300 million estate. The estate was to be divided
primarily between Spelling, her brother and her mother
Candy. Spelling's mother was the estate executor. At the
time, Spelling and her mother were estranged and it was
reported that Spelling inherited just $800,000. Her
brother, who was not estranged from his mother, also
received $800,000.
Spelling gave birth to her first child, Liam Aaron
McDermott (Aaron, for her deceased father) on Tuesday,
March 13, 2007 in Los Angeles. Spelling said she and her
mother had recently reconciled. Reportedly, her mother
was in the delivery room when Spelling gave birth. It
has been reported that Candy Spelling has established a
$10 million trust fund for her first grandchild.
Spelling has recently been ordained as a minister over
the internet. She has, by her own account, presided over
five same-sex marriages. |
