Tori Spelling believes divorce won't disrupt family dynamics
Spelling emphasized that her divorce won’t completely disrupt their family dynamic.
“We’ll always be a family,” she added. “Whether there’s a title on it or not so, it’s just time to move forward.”
On March 29, Spelling officially filed for divorce from her estranged husband, citing “irreconcilable differences” as a reason of the split.
The official date of separation from her husband McDermott was mentioned as June 17, 2023.
Spelling had requested the court to award her spousal support and terminate McDermott's ability to receive the same support.
She also sought sole physical custody of their five minor children and joint legal custody with McDermott's following visitation rights, according to People.

“We always say, ‘Hey, it made it 18 years,'” she reflected on the April 1 episode of the 'misSPELLING' podcast.
“It shouldn’t have made it 18 years. I think he would say the same thing if he and I had a real heart-to-heart. It would have been over a lot sooner," she said.
While McDermott, 57, hasn’t spoken out about Spelling's divorce filing, he announced their separation back in June 2023.
“We will continue to work together as loving parents and guide and love our children through this difficult time,” he wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post.
“We ask that you all respect our privacy as we take this time to surround our family with love and work our way through this.”
