Reality star and 90210 alum Tori Spelling chatted with Celebrity Baby Scoop about her four kids (Liam, 6, Stella, 5, Hattie, 2 and Finn, 1), her new book Spelling It Like It Is and how she intends to raise her kids. Tori had a high risk pregnancy with son Finn. She shares, “It was a horrific experience and I don’t believe anything happened randomly…I think we go through things that we need to go through. That time made me such a strong woman and such a strong mother.” Tori talks very openly about how she wants to raise her children different than the way in which she was raised. She says, “I definitely grew up in a very different lifestyle than how I raise my children now. Financially, we are in a totally different position. We are a different type of family.” On her relationship with husband Dean, Tori says, “Our relationship has such a strong base, which makes it work. We are both really busy, as our day is all kids, kids, kids, and then career. Each day, we have to find moments for us. Even if each day is chaotic, we have to find those little moments to steal and make about us. I think it is really important for parents to do that.”
When asked about her new book, Spelling It Like It Is, Tori said, “It is about my life. The book takes you through everything, from before Hattie was born and Dean being in ICU from the motorcycle accident, to my scary pregnancy with Finn, all of the houses we moved to and our farm. It touches on everything about our lives currently.” And why she writes? “My favorite part about writing the book was just being able to share my experiences. I think that’s why I have such a connection with people; I am willing to share what I’ve gone through.”
