Tori Spelling talks about Liam's biggest fan, Coco Arquette

Liam Aaron McDermott, 4-months, enjoyed his first "little love-fest" recently with fellow celebrity baby Coco Arquette, 3.  According to Liam’s mom, actress Tori Spelling, Coco — daughter of Courteney Cox Arquette — recently met the baby while Tori was visiting a neighbor of the Arquette’s, and the two instantly hit it off.

He loves girls already.  He had his first make-out session…[Coco] came out, and she and Liam had a little love-fest.  It was really cute, and she was kissing his head, and I was like ‘Hun!  Liam and an older woman!’  So maybe it won’t be Suri or Shiloh — It will be Coco.

Tori recently shared that she has shed 22-lbs since giving birth and is halfway towards her target weight of 115-lbs.  The former Beverly Hill 90210 actress admits she was discouraged not only to learn that the weight she gained while pregnant was more than simple fluid retention, breastfeeding did not spark the dramatic weight loss she had hoped for, and her postpartum body took her by surprise. 

I thought I looked heavier after I had the baby.  [The bulge] left the stomach area and shifted into areas I didn’t know could gain weight.  I was like ‘Uh-oh!’ 

Now, Tori works out 2 to 3 times each week with a personal trainer, and faithfully abides by the NutriSystem Nourish weight loss program, supported by Dean’s sister and Liam’s nanny, who are both on the plan with her.  Although she’s seeing some dramatic results, Tori says she doesn’t feel the need to return to her ultra-svelte pre-baby form. 

When I first started it was hard; I’d never had to diet before.  So I was like ‘Oh, am I going to be able to stick to this?’…I like my curves.  I’m happy with the way I look.  I don’t think about getting down to a size 0 or a size 2 because that was before.  I’m a mom now!

The payoff for all that hard work, of course, is Liam — who is now smiling and "is talking up a storm," according to his proud mom.  According to Tori, motherhood "just gets better and better each day." 

It’s amazing. I look at him and I’m like, ‘I baked you in my belly!’ I love it.

Liam is the first child for Tori and her husband Dean McDermott; Dean has an 8-year-old son, Jack, from a former marriage.

she sounds really fake. like she wants her son to be a celebrity so she pushes him onto more famous kids like suri and shiloh. she pisses me off like come on this is ridiculous your son most likily is 4 months old. he won’t be with shiloh or suri. they’re mega and she’s just aaron spellings infamous daughter.

I would like to see the results of the poll without voting in it. Is that possible?

Sarah’s note: Not sure. I’ll check into it.

@ MommyX1

From memory, I think Dean and his former wife adopted a girl not long at all before they spilt and while I’m not sure how it all worked, his wife ended up as the sole parent and Dean isn’t the father, by paper or involvement. Not 100% sure though, so anyone correct me if I’m wrong

- Bella on July 19th, 2007

Mommy X1, I believe his ex adopted the girl while they were having problems and he was not named on her birth certificate as the father. I am not sure of the specifics.

Tori has such a real and refreshing attitude!!! I am loving her as a mamma!

In parade magazine (I think it was last week)they asked Dean’s ex-wife if she saw the split coming. She said no because they were in the process of adopting a baby girl.

No matter how hard I try I just can’t like Tori…or Dean.

Already name dropping for her son, love it!

- MMM on July 19th, 2007

What a great attitude! It’s so nice to read stuff like this, esp after the (possible fake) Jaime Pressley interview.

- PSB on July 19th, 2007

I am totally with you, C. I read an interview with Dean’s ex a while ago and now him and Tory just irritate the crap out of me.

- Macy on July 19th, 2007

doting to do with tori,dean or liam but someone have a pic of his ex-wife and daughter?

- denisse on July 19th, 2007

I think it’s refreshing to hear that the weight didn’t just melt off, and that she was surprised not to lose during breastfeeding. I was kind of the same way. I figured, hey, I’m nursing so I’m burning all these calories. It’s true, but you still have to work at the weight. Way to go Tori!

- Laura AS1 on July 19th, 2007

Yea dean is not involved with the adopted daughter, just their 8yr old son.

- gianna on July 19th, 2007

it’s so irritating how this site cannot mention anything about tori,dean or liam without bringing up the ex….none of us were there. we don’t know what went down or why.i don’t tend to trust what MJ says as she claimed they had a perfect marriage when they didn’t(dean says she abused him) and it is very sad that most people outside canada had never heard of dean before he met tori yet judged him straight away without knowing anything about him.none of those involved should have to defend their reasons for loving someone and falling out of love with someone else.

tori and dean made a huge mistake but it was 2yrs ago.they can’t go back and change it- they have said they r sorry it happened the way it did-what more do y’all want? they can’t go back and change it.

people luv to call T an awful person (read her blog-u may think otherwise) but just saying that is awful in itself.quite hypocritical IMHO.i have been a fan of tori’s for 17yrs-it would take a lot for me to turn my back on her.just because a lot of people say something, doesn’t make it true.

liam is gorgeous and lucky to have 2 happy, loving,attentive parents.that’s more than most hollywood kids could hope for.
