Tori Spelling was spotted dressed casually in a knit beanie and a wolf-print sweater as she departed from Los Angeles International Airport on Tuesday. This sighting followed her candid remarks on the misSPELLING podcast, where she addressed persistent criticism regarding her cosmetic procedures.
Addressing Decades of Criticism
Spelling, the daughter of renowned television producer Aaron Spelling, expressed frustration over ongoing speculation about her appearance. "I'm 52, I'll be 53 in May, and I purposely go the other way because every photo I put up, people say, 'Stop with the filler.' I'm like, 'I'm not!'" she lamented during Monday's episode.
She revealed that public scrutiny began when she was just 17 years old, after a tabloid falsely reported she had undergone cheek implants and chin surgery. "They were like, 'She's had all this plastic surgery.' So they did something like that to a 17-year-old," Spelling recalled, clarifying that she had only received a rhinoplasty at that time.
Revealing a Congenital Condition
In a bonus podcast episode released on Wednesday, Spelling disclosed she has pectus excavatum, a genetic condition that causes a concave appearance in the sternum. This has fueled further misunderstanding about her breast augmentations.
"People are like, 'What's that gap between her boobs?' I'm like, 'It's my bone thing. It's high here but it goes in. Even when I was five years old it looked like I had cleavage,'" she explained. "So people shame me all the time, 'Look how bad her boob job is!' And I'm like, 'You guys, I have a bone thing that's genetic.'"
Considering Another Procedure
During an interview with plastic surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow, Spelling unexpectedly requested a fourth breast augmentation to downsize her silicone implants from 2021. "They're so heavy. I'm miserable with them. They put that mesh bra in, but I still have ripples. So did it work? And it doesn't hold me up, the mesh bra," she complained.
Dr. Dubrow, star of the television series Botched, did not fully agree with her assessment but offered a complimentary consultation at his Beverly Hills office.
Fashion and Family Life
Spelling connected her cosmetic decisions to fashion limitations, noting that current trends have influenced her desire for smaller implants. "Slip dresses have never been more popular and I want to downsize these," she stated.
This Friday, Spelling and her second ex-husband, actor Dean McDermott, will celebrate their son Liam's 19th birthday. The former couple, who divorced in 2023 after 17 years of marriage, also share four other children: Stella, 17, Hattie, 14, Finn, 13, and Beau, 9.
Looking ahead, Spelling is set to appear as a fortune teller in the interactive horror video game Ghosts, scheduled for release later this year by Visible Games and Limited Run Games.
