LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Tori Spelling was spotted kissing 'Dancing with the Stars' pro Ezra Sosa on the lips to display their friendship at a star-studded event, creating an image of support and unity.

Spelling, 51, who was eliminated from the ABC reality competition show with Anna Delvey in the first round, was seen kissing Sosa quickly on Wednesday, October 9, at the Dancers Against Cancer 10th Annual Gala of Star Awards at the Beverly Hilton.

Spelling also tagged Delvey, Sosa's former 'DWTS' partner, in the Instagram Stories photo. The actress captioned the picture, writing, "You were missed," per People.

Tori Spelling and Ezra Sosa spotted kissing following exit from 'DWTS' alongside Anna Delvey

The endearing exchange between Tori Spelling and Ezra Sosa transpired after Sosa's abrupt exit from 'DWTS' with partner Anna Delvey. Famously known as a convicted scammer, Delvey had a direct response when asked what she learned from the experience: "Nothing."

Following the 33-year-old convicted scammer's elimination on September 24, host Julianne Hough invited her to share her biggest learning from the episode. For Delvey, it meant "nothing."

Sosa stood up for Delvey in spite of the criticism for her monosyllable answer, saying that she had privately expressed sorrow and apologized for the way their brief tenure on the show ended.

Sosa later told Extra, "I knew she was going to say something very iconic and something very ‘Anna Delvey’ with her exit. Of course she has to — it’s very typical. We would expect nothing less of her."

The dancer reassured viewers that Delvey spoke to him individually about her departure and that she was sorry about how things ended, even though some might have found her one-word response to be harsh.

Although Sosa acknowledged that he would have preferred for Delvey to "stay longer," he still wanted people to understand how "incredibly sweet" and "how misunderstood she is."

Speaking exclusively to PEOPLE during the gala on Wednesday night, Spelling described her estranged spouse Dean McDermott as one of her "biggest supporters."

Despite officially filing for divorce earlier this year, Spelling told PEOPLE, "We're really amicable. I know in Hollywood people think divorces have to be ugly, ours are not. We co-parent really well, we're good friends, and he's one of my biggest supporters."

Spilling her 'DWTS' predictions, the 'Beverly Hills, 90210' alum claimed that "it's a hard one" because she "loves everybody," but eventually declared Disney Channel star Chandler Kinney as the winner.

She said, "I think Chandler is the full package. She's an amazing dancer. Her soul is amazing energy. She wants it. She loves everybody," per The Blast.

Spelling also listed Joey Graziadei, a former contestant on 'The Bachelor', as a "contender."
