Watch: Tori Spelling Requests Spousal Support From Dean McDermott in Finalized Divorce AgreementTori Spelling and ex-husband Dean McDermott are finding common ground. Despite finalizing their divorce in November, the former couple are still fixtures in each other's lives, which the Beverly Hills 90210 alum said she's "so grateful" for. "We do family dinners, we do everything together," she told People in an interview published Dec. 6, "so it's really good for the kids." Following the pair's separation in 2023, the 52-year-old-who shares kids Liam, 18, Stella, 17, Hattie, 14, Finn, 13, and Beau, 8, with Dean-was braced for a hostile divorce process, but she managed to avoid unnecessary drama by putting family first. "I watched families go through horror stories with the parents, and at the end of the day, you created beings because you had so much love between you," she explained. "We love and care about each other so much, and I was shocked because I always read horror stories and everyone predicted it to be so messy, the divorce, and it was super easy and loving."readTori Spelling Details Past Date With "Unimaginably Intelligent" Charlie SheenTori previously revealed the unexpected role one of her daughters played in her decision to leave her marriage. During an episode of her misSPELLING podcast in April, she recalled Hattie asking her, "Have you ever considered what it would be like to be with someone else and not dad and get treated right?"Broadimage/ShutterstockAnd while Tori pointed out that the teen "loves her dad," she realized that her deteriorating relationship with the 59-year-old was taking a toll on their children. "It got to the point where it was worse for the kids to see us together," she continued. "We could no longer hide what was happening, the fights." In the end, the actress felt her decision to seek a divorce was better in the long run for everyone involved. "On my part, at least," she said, "the want of kids, always wanting their parents together, I think kept me from making what was outwardly a better decision for them than what they saw between two partners."Likewise, many stars have also developed a new dynamic with their former partner after breaking up.
