Tori Spelling's financial situation took center stage in her ongoing divorce from Dean McDermott, as recent court documents unveiled her staggering monthly income.
In an income and expense report submitted on September 5 in Los Angeles Superior Court, McDermott claimed that Spelling's monthly earnings swing dramatically, ranging from $3,000 to $75,000, "depending on the job."
Meanwhile, the Chopped Canada host shared that he brings in only $3,800 a month, citing a significant decline in his financial situation over the past year. "My acting and producing work has decreased drastically," he noted, referencing the impact of the SAG/AFTRA strikes and ongoing changes in the entertainment industry.
Amid the financial turmoil, McDermott disclosed that his girlfriend, Lily Calo, earns a mere $600 a month.
Dean McDermott claims he earns $3,800 a month.
The expense report revealed that McDermott's monthly costs reach $3,980, which surpasses his income. The actor also faces mounting debts, including a $200,000 outstanding loan with City National Bank, along with overdue credit card debts of $2,500 with Capital One and $12,000 with Care Credit. Additionally, he owes $1,200 for dental work.
The former flames share five children: son Liam, 18, daughter Stella, 17, daughter Hattie, 13, son Finn, 13 and son Beau, 8. McDermott also has a 26-year-old son, Jack, from a previous relationship with Mary Jo Eustace.
