It is rumored that their marriage has been on the rocks for quite some time now.
In June, insiders provided more insight into their allegedly turbulent relationship.
That’s what a source said Us weekly the last update friends of the couple got was that they were “proceeding with a trial separation.”

This summer, friends of the actress were worried because they don’t hear from her anymore, according to the source.
Friends have tried to contact Tori but have heard nothing back.
“She hasn’t done any social things anymore. She seems to isolate herself. She’s been so MIA that they’re afraid something is up — if she has money problems again or is depressed,” the source said.
The insider also claimed that Tori and her friends don’t get together like they used to.
Another source has also claimed that the couple has put a divorce on hold due to their ‘rollercoaster’ relationship.
The source claimed that the couple feel “trapped” as they cannot go through with the divorce.
“They know divorce is going to be expensive and that’s not something they want to go through right now. They both feel trapped,” the insider told the site.
“Having kids makes it harder because they don’t want their kids to be unhappy, but at the same time, Tori has been unhappy for a while. They are really still together for their children.’

Tori and Dean were spotted together in June at daughter Stella’s high school graduation. The duo posted touching tributes to their daughter on Instagram.
Dean and Tori have been at the center of divorce rumors since last year, a source close to Spelling said E! News that she was reportedly preparing to file for divorce from her husband.
The insider claimed there was no going back for the couple, but that the 90210 star wanted to make sure she was “financially stable” before filing the divorce papers.
“The marriage is over and has been for a long time,” the source said, adding that the couple “really don’t get along” and have been “sleeping in different rooms for months.”
Tori added fuel to the fire when she appeared on SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live, where she confirmed that the couple slept in separate beds.

‘What’s really going on? You put on the wedding ring. Is it going well?’ Lewis asked her, after she was spotted ringless in March. ‘Cause I feel like the last time you were here everything was fine, you had sex. Do you sleep in the same bed? Personal?’
‘You know what? Right now my kids and dogs are sleeping in my bed,” she replied, going on to say that McDermott slept “in a room.”
It is alleged that a major source of the couple’s struggles are trust issues stemming from Dean’s infidelity, which he admitted in 2014 on the reality show True Tori.
A source told People: ‘Tori still has major trust issues. Part of their relationship never fully recovered after he was unfaithful.”
The insider revealed that the couple’s outings together are purely for the sake of their children.
They’ve led separate lives. They’ll still have family meals and the occasional outing, but it’s for the kids.”
Tori and Dean have also famously struggled with finances.
2020, The sun reported that Tori and Dean owed $1.2 million in taxes and unpaid credit card bills.
It is known that her father Aaron Spelling left his daughter only $800,000 upon his death in 2006. His widow Candy, 73, retained control of his $600 million fortune.
Her mother, Candy Spelling, revealed that her spending habits were the reason she only left an inheritance of $800,000.

Speak with the New York Times in 2014, Candy said Tori would “close shop and drop $50,000 to $60,000,” adding, “I’ve never done anything like this before.” She just went crazy.’
“I’m not good with money, and I know a lot of people read a lot of stuff about my finances,” Spelling admitted on her 2019 show Tori Tried And True.
“I had a business manager since I was 18 years old, so I never handled my money,” she admitted.
“Everything, everything, went to them, so unfortunately I never learned anything about money. Now that I’m raising kids myself, I’m like, “That’s so important!”
Spelling’s financial troubles gained media attention as far back as 13 years ago, and the topic was even featured on her canceled meta reboot BH90210.
