Tori Spelling Laughs Off Persisting Pregnancy Rumors

Santiago Baez/Ramey

It’s an early wake-up call for actress Tori Spelling: rise and shine at 5 a.m.! During a radio interview with Valentine in the Morning, Tori shares that while her two kids — Liam Aaron, 2, and Stella Doreen, 11 months — are successfully sleeping through the night, some mornings can be spent watching the sun rise. With her two children raring to go, Tori shuffles off to the kitchen for breakfast. “When I make Liam’s breakfast, I usually make my own and then we sit together and eat,” she says of the morning routine.

While Tori and her husband Dean McDermott are holding off on having any more children — at least for now! — the mom-of-two laughs that there is certainly no shortage of pregnancy rumors! “I think maybe three or four months after Stella was born, there were rumors already circulating, [with people] calling my publicist, saying, ‘Do you think Tori is pregnant again?’” she says.

“So everyone is always looking for me to get knocked up again.”

That said, Tori admits that she hopes to one day confirm those rumors with a third pregnancy; For now, the couple are focusing on their foursome. “We’re just enjoying our two beautiful little ones and kind of want to give them time together,” she explains, before adding that they would “like to expand our family down the road.”

That would be hard. My husband and I get ask that a lot too. We have two kids(ages 7 & 1) and we have our hands full. I think that question should just disappear.

Why doesn’t she mention his son as part of her family?

SarahJane on May 16th, 2009

Wouldn’t they actually be a “fivesome,” – I think Jack should be including in statements about how many kids they have.

Meream on May 16th, 2009

Is that her daughter? She is cute!

eternalcanadian on May 16th, 2009

While Jack indeed is their sibling, he does not live with them. He lives with his mum in Toronto. So maybe in a way that’s what Tori is referring to when she talks about her little family of four, which obviously becomes a little family of five whenever Jack comes to visit or they go visit him.

But yeah, she should be mentioning him, that’s jmo and I agree with ifpu375 and SarahJane . After seeing stuff from Sandra, Giselle, etc., about calling their stepkids their kids I don’t know why Tori doesn’t include Jack in her conversos. Maybe his mum asked them not to? Who knows.

LauraW on May 16th, 2009

“While Jack indeed is their sibling, he does not live with them. He lives with his mum in Toronto.”

He actually doesn’t live in Toronto anymore. Mary Jo moved back to the U.S. (I believe to L.A.) and now Jack lives with them about fifty percent of the time. Tori talks about it in her book.

SarahJane on May 16th, 2009

“While Jack indeed is their sibling, he does not live with them.”

Jack currently lives in L.A. and spends half of his time with Tori and Dean. He used to live in Canada, but not anymore.

brannon on May 16th, 2009

i don’t care where he lives. they are a family of five. and no excuses – he should never be an ‘oversight.’

Natasha on May 16th, 2009

If she said five-some she’d be trying to take Jack over from his mother like Gisele did with Tom’s son. *roll eyes* These people can’t win.

Anne on May 16th, 2009

What Tori means when she says that they are a family of four people. Her husband and children by Dean together. Nothing else should be read into that. Jack is with them as often as possible and Dean loves him no different but Jack lives with his mother, the mouthpiece from the cooking show in Canada.

melanie on May 16th, 2009

I think everyone is failing to realize that it wasn’t actually Tori who called them a “foursome”…that part wasn’t in quotes…so it very well could be that the author or whoever wrote this particular article is the one who called the family a foursome, not Tori herself…just saying…

Bess on May 16th, 2009

“I think everyone is failing to realize that it wasn’t actually Tori who called them a “foursome”…that part wasn’t in quotes”

She went on to say that she and Dean are enjoying their 2 kids, when really they have 3 kids in their family (well technically they have four, but Dean abandoned one of them).

babyboopie on May 16th, 2009

I agree with Brannon- Jack is still a part of their family, isn’t he? If he does spend 50% of the time with Tori and Dean, I’m assuming he has a lot of contact with Liam and Stella, so therefore Tori should see herself with 3 kids really, not 2.

Di on May 16th, 2009

I feel like this discussion has been done over and over again recently. I do not believe that Tori should see herself as having three kids rather than two. The fact of the matter is that Jack is not her son, he is Mary Jo’s son. Even if he spends half of his time at Tori’s house, that still does not change the fact that he has a mother, the same mother Tori so publicly insulted on numerous ocassions.

You can’t compare the two children who Tori gave birth to who live with her all the time to a child who spends every other week there. There is no comparison. Since Jack is always bouncing back between the two households, it makes sense that in Tori’s mind her family consists of only two children. It appears that Tori is smart enough not to try to claim someone else’s child as her own like some other step-mothers which is a very good thing. There is no need for further conflict.

I must applaud Mary Jo on she has handled Dean’s affair and marriage to Tori. She has carried herself with the upmost respect in spite of Tori’s ridiculous and immature taunts. I do not know how she does it. Here is this woman who had an affair with your husband and now she is your son’s step-mother with a position of influence over him. Jack is lucky to have such a wonderful mother who puts his needs first and her needs second. Her decision to move to LA proves it. I wonder if Dean would have done the same thing and moved back to Canada to be closer to his son.

LauraW on May 16th, 2009

“I must applaud Mary Jo on she has handled Dean’s affair and marriage to Tori. She has carried herself with the upmost respect in spite of Tori’s ridiculous and immature taunts. I do not know how she does it.”

I definitely agree with you on that one. I’m truly amazed by how generous Mary Jo has been – and how she has truly put her child’s well-being first before her own feelings. That couldn’t have been an easy thing to do.

Although I disagree with the other part of your post, I think when Tori is referring to herself and Dean as a couple then she should include Jack because he’s Dean’s child as well. I don’t have a problem with her saying two kids when she’s only talking about herself, but once she throws Dean into the sentence then I think it’s only appropriate to say “three.”

ang on May 16th, 2009

i think it’s really nice that tori has breakfast with liam-hopefully it will be a nice memory for him one day. as it happens, it is tori’s birthday today so i’m going to bypass the negativity and wish her a fabulous day =)

Mia on May 16th, 2009

Regardless, Tori seems to really love her husband, and love her kids, and they seem happy. I don’t know, some people refer to a child from a previous marriage as “their child” (if they are the second spouse) and some people don’t. I think since the story was in reference to pregnancy, her/her husband have 2 children together and she was simply stating she isn’t ready to be come pregnant again.

Mary-Helen on May 16th, 2009

Is it just me, or does it seem like Tori Spelling needs to remind us how famous and important she is? I don’t ever read rumours about her (except a few about her weight), but Tori is always going on and on about how there are rumours about her and how she is soooo sick of everyone talking about her and how hard it is to be super famous and have everyone talk about her.

Amy on May 16th, 2009

“Is it just me, or does it seem like Tori Spelling needs to remind us how famous and important she is?”

She also talks a lot about how she did the reality show because it was her way of dealing with the paparazzi that were always swarming around her – and I’ve always found that statement very odd because there was a period of time (after 90210 ended and before she started the reality show) where I rarely ever saw her in the tabloids. I don’t think she’s as famous as she wants to believe.

brannon on May 16th, 2009

for the sake of consistency natasha – i feel gisele was right in her claims to jack. im sure those who disagreed also disagree with me on this. i personally just feel that if you marry someone with children, they come as a package deal. you cant have your own children and cast the others off. yes, he has a mother. he also has a stepmother and father. therefore, he has two families and should be equally included in both. (imo, it would have been terrible if gisele felt no connection to jack – for all involved. tough for bridget, of course. always is. but as a mother, i would rather my son have a step mother who loved him rather than one who didnt)

melanie on May 16th, 2009

Bess,
You’re right–she did say their “two little ones”…but technically her and Dean TOGETHER only have two children…not to say that she shouldn’t include Jack–I definitely think she should–but I also think that most interviewers ask her about her children with Dean and she just answers them honestly. Not to mention, Mary Jo is very private and for all we know, Tori could be respecting her privacy by not divulging a lot of information about Jack or even speaking about him as much…we just don’t know the whole story so it’s not fair for us to judge (not that you were, I don’t mean to insinuate that).

CelebBabyLover on May 16th, 2009

Bess- No, they do NOT have four children. Dean is not Lola’s father anymore. It’s also not fair to assume that he abandoned her. We don’t know who’s decision it was for him not to continue with the adoption proceedings. It could have been his, it could have been Mary Jo’s, or it could have been both of those.

We weren’t there, so we don’t know. As for Tori…Well, she says “OUR two children”, and she and Dean DO have only two kids together. Now, if she had said something like, “Dean loves both of the kids so much,” then I agree that that would be wrong and that she should be including Jack as well.

plS on May 16th, 2009

“(well technically they have four, but Dean abandoned one of them).”

When Dean left Mary Jo, Lola was already living with them but her adoption had not been finalized. They were then told that they could not complete the adoption because they were divorcing. Mary Jo then fought to adopt her as a single parent.

Erica on May 17th, 2009

“Bess- No, they do NOT have four children. Dean is not Lola’s father anymore.”

Doesn’t that say it all? The little girl was already in Dean and Mary Jo’s home when he decided to cheat on and leave his wife. Whether or not it was his choice to rescind his promise to adopt Lola, he essentially chose Tori over his soon-to-be-legally baby daughter; his infidelity *is* the reason that little girl doesn’t have a father right now.

I’m not someone who was crazy about the possessive nature of Gisele’s comments, but I admired the love and acceptance behind their sentiment. Tori’s language in this interview may not be indicative at all about how she feels about Jack’s place in her family; maybe she feels guilty about laying too much claim to a stepson she gained by helping his dad cheat on his mother.

I understand that people will never be in agreement over that whole situation, but I do wonder if some would give Dean and Tori such a benefit of the doubt if Lola had been his newborn biological child and not his nearly-adopted one.

Di on May 17th, 2009

Erica makes an excellent point. I wonder if Dean had an easier time walking away from his soon-to-be adopted daughter because there was no biological connection. He exercised his right to opt out of the adoption rather than honor the commitment he made to Mary Jo and his children so he could be with Tori which should tell everyone something about his character.

Just thinking about the adoption really puts into perspective how destructive Tori and Dean’s affair was. Mary Jo’s 10 year marriage fell apart. Jack no longer has two parents who live in the same household and that little girl could have lost out on having a wonderful mother. The adoption agency could have easily denied Mary Jo’s request to adopt as a single parent and then the child who she had grown to love and adore would have been ripped from her arms.

The next time someone praises either Tori or Dean about how wonderful they are and what a wonderful family they have, he or she should think about the affair and how much heartache it caused.

Lastly, Mary Jo’e has written about her divorce with Dean and it is is scheduled to come out later this year called “Divorce Sucks”. If Tori can tell her story, Mary Jo is entitled to tell her side of the story as well.

Bess on May 17th, 2009

“Bess- No, they do NOT have four children. Dean is not Lola’s father anymore.”

Adopted children are just as much children as biological children, and the fact that he abandoned his second child is very disturbing.

bieta on May 17th, 2009

I wonder how that must impact the adopted child. When she got into the household(assuming it was an older child) she was told she had two parents. Then she was told she has one. Then her brother leaves I’m assuming a few times a month to stay with his father. That must be strange for her.

Anna on May 17th, 2009

Di: You make some really great points. I agree with everything you said.

Andrea_momof2 on May 17th, 2009

There are a lot of assumptions about Dean in this thread. None of us know what happened. Maybe your “guesses” happened and maybe they absolutely did not. Assuming they did is low.

Di on May 17th, 2009

I know some people think I am being unfair to Dean but I know for a fact that Tori knew that Dean was married and had two children, not just 1 one child which would be Jack.

I read an excerpt of Tori’s book in People and she said that when she first met Dean they talked and he showed her pictures of his two children so the at the very least we know that at the time of the affair, he considered Lola to be his child with paper work pending. Dean may not have made a conscious choice to abandon Lola but his reckless and irresponsible behavior made continuing the adoption as a couple impossible so he left and Mary Jo stepped up to the plate to continue what she and Dean had started.

It is amazing that the agency did not take Lola away since they were given the impression that they were placing Lola is a stable two parent family and that turned out not to be the case thanks to Dean.

babyboopie on May 17th, 2009

The fact of this matter is that Jack is still a part of their family and Tori should include him in interviews since he is there 50 percent of the time. Perhaps she doesn’t have to say things about him, since his mother may not want this but at least acknowledge him. He is her stepson!

Anna on May 17th, 2009

“Assuming they did is low.”

No, it’s really not. I don’t think we’re be unfair at all to two people who have incredibly low morals and very little regard for anyone else’s feelings. They don’t deserve the benefit of the doubt after all the horrible things they’ve done.

lala on May 17th, 2009

I find very FUNNY that people think they know what EXACTLY happened between Tor, Mary-Jo and Dean.

It’s so FUNNY! You people are bikcering back-and-forth like you are part of their inner circle.

PLEASE CBB, CLOSE THE COMMENT SECTIONS!!!!!!

These are not opinions, or comments……

Anna on May 17th, 2009

“I find very FUNNY that people think they know what EXACTLY happened between Tor, Mary-Jo and Dean.”

We assume that we know exactly what happened because Tori told us exactly what happened in her book. She laid it all out, how she knew he was married and had two kids, how they cheated on their spouses the first night they knew each other, etc. She chose to put it all out there.

Bess on May 17th, 2009

My goodness Lala, I’ve been reading catching up on a lot of threads over the last few days, and this is the third thread I’ve run across where you’ve tried to pick fights with other people. Why do you have such a hard time with people having opinions other than yours?

Angi on May 17th, 2009

I have a feeling that when it comes to Tori, people have a hard time sticking to the subject at hand, that being how many children a couple choosing to have together.

Judith on May 17th, 2009

Tori is one of my favorite celeb moms. Thanks, Tori, for letting us know what goes on in your life, regarding your kids. I pray you and your mom will be able to resolve your differences. My mom and I didn’t get along that well. She died Feb.’05. I can’t say anything to her now..

Andrea_momof2 on May 17th, 2009

Anna, unless you know them personally that is just another assumption, right? Cheating is wrong, I completely agree, but unless all of you were there every step of the way I don’t know why you think it’s ok to “attack” him for it.

Anna on May 17th, 2009

“Anna, unless you know them personally that is just another assumption, right?”

It’s not an assumption when I’m basing my opinion on Tori’s own words. She practically shouted her adulterous activities from the roof-top, so how am I making an assumption about them? And I think it’s okay to criticize them because I don’t think people who do horrible things like the stuff and she and Dean did deserve to be cut any slack. If you want to cut them slack, then go ahead. But I don’t feel like extending any courtesy to a woman who doesn’t extend that same courtesy in return – she badmouths people all over the place, so I think she deserves all the badmouthing she gets in return.

Sadie on May 17th, 2009

I don’t know how I feel about this. I agree with you Di, but then I also look at Dean and Tori and they do seem ridiculously in love and a good match for one another, which gets me thinking… should each have stayed with their respective spouse and lived unhappily ever after just to do what was right morally and ethically? Sometimes people marry the wrong person, I just don’t know that they should be punished forever because of it.
The Lola-scenario does not sit comfortably with me whatsoever. I just hope that Dean did what he did at Mary-Jo’s request. It would have been hard to have a custody arrangement with a baby, and I’m sure Mary-Jo did not want to have to share her children with her husband’s mistress (now wife). With Jack she had no choice, but perhaps she begged Dean to reliquish rights to Lola and he reluctantly agreed? Who knows. I’m not letting them off the hook, but I just think there is a lot of grey area in cases like this… it’s never just black and white.
Anyway, I wish Tori had mentioned Jack too. She could learn a LOT from Jada Pinkett Smith, who loves and adores Trey like her own and always includes him when talking about their children.

SH on May 18th, 2009

lala, If you dislike the comment section so much that you want CBB to close it then WHY do you read them? Makes no sense.

lala2 on May 18th, 2009

I read them so I can have a good laugh!

Di on May 18th, 2009

Sadie-
I understand your point of view. Everyday people get married and then they realize a few years later that person X was not the right person and they decide to end things. I do not expect people stay with someone they are no longer in love with but when they are children involved, you no longer have the right to be selfish and you really have to think about the consequences of your actions which I do not think Dean and Tori did.
If Dean was not happy and I believe he was happy with Mary Jo, he should have told her “I’m not happy and I want a divorce” instead of having an affair/falling madly in love with Tori and then two weeks later saying “I do not love you , I’m in love with Tori and I want a divorce”. What really bothers me is the whole betrayal aspect because it shows a lack of respect for what Mary Jo and Dean had.

I agree that Dean and Tori are very happy together because they are very similar people. Tori loves the spotlight and Dean is an opportunist. I believe that Dean was attracted to the Spelling name and the potential fortune that Tori would inherit. Dean strikes me as someone who always wanted to be a star. The reason why Mary Jo and Dean moved to LA was to help boost his career. Being married to Tori has certainly increased Dean’s name recognition among the public so in a way he got what he wanted, fame and fortune and all he had to do was betray his wife and child.

Tori and Dean are not the only celebrities who have had an affair but very few celebrities are so open about their cheating ways as Tori and Dean are so that is where my dislike of them comes from.

Lauren on May 18th, 2009

“I read them so I can have a good laugh!”

Trust me, your twelve-year-old meltdowns would be hilarious if they weren’t so sad.

Beyond that, nothing new to say that hasn’t already been said regarding Tori at the moment.

lala2 on May 18th, 2009

Lauren………..Get a grip. You’re not even worth me replying to…..

sadie on May 18th, 2009

Di – you raise some good points. I hope for the sake of Liam and Stella that Dean and Tori will stay committed to this marriage. I don’t know much about Mary-Jo but her silence is all grace to me. I hope she has found love with a man who deserves her and treats her well.

Lauren on May 19th, 2009

“Lauren………..Get a grip. You’re not even worth me replying to…..”

Yep, I’m so not worth you replying to that you just replied to me. Uh-huh…
