Dean McDermott Paid Tribute To Wife Tori Spelling On 'IWD,' Despite Split Rumors

Celebrity couple Dean McDermott and Tori Spelling have been married for over a decade; however, there have been recent speculations about their divorce.

The couple is best known for their personality on-screen; Dean for hosting the cooking competition series, "Chopped Canada" and Spelling for her feature on "Beverly Hills 90210."

Despite the chatter about their marriage, the actor took to Instagram to celebrate International Women's Day by honoring the women in his life, including Spelling.

March 8 of every year is a special day for women worldwide as it marks the annual International Women's Day. Numerous people celebrated the women in their lives differently, including via social media.

Dean joined the trend by posting four adorable pictures showing Spelling and his two daughters, Stella Doreen McDermott and Hattie Margaret McDermott.

He further wrote a sweet message beneath the post that read, "Happy International Women's Day to these incredibly smart, creative, strong, fierce, and funny Women. I'm so blessed to have you in my life. I love you So Much!!"

Fans gushed at how beautiful the women looked while a few wondered whether Dean and Spelling were still together.

The pair have been married since 2006, and they are blessed with five children; 14-year-old Liam, 13-year-old Stella, 10-year-old Hattie, 9-year-old Finn, and 4-year-old Beau.

In 2013, their marriage got rocky when Dean confessed to having an extramarital affair. Since then, they have had an on-and-off romance rekindling.

However, the actress mentioned her need for a divorce not too long ago as she felt trapped in the marriage despite their occasional couple's counseling.

Last year, The Blast reported the details of the couple's heated argument following Spelling's statement about wanting a divorce.

A source revealed that Dean left for two days after their argument. He said he would sue the movie star for child support and alimony when he returned.

Even though they signed a prenup before their union, he could still sue for child support which angered Spelling as she believed he would get nothing from the legal action.

Money seemed to be a major issue in their marriage which made the "Spelling It Like It Is" author feel trapped. She reportedly did not leave because of the kids who were not privy to the marital issues.

Later in October, the couple ended their hostilities as they were, for the first time in months, seen hanging out with their children in Disneyland.

Their outing to the "Happiest Place On Earth" did not in any way make them happy, as they were captured looking gloomy and not wearing their wedding bands.

Dean and Spelling do not also share the same bed as the mother-of-five mentioned last June on "Jeff Lewis Live" that she sleeps with the kids and their dogs in her bed.

The Blast recounted about five months ago that Spelling had nothing to say about her relationship with Dean while on "The Wendy Williams Show."

Before the week of the show, she was spotted outside an attorney's office with a writing pad that had 'custody,' 'support,' and 'assets' written on it.

The talented performer dropped in on the show on October 26, during which the substitute host, Whitney Cummings, asked about the status of her marriage to the Canadian actor.

Cummings said, "So we are on the Wendy Williams program, you're allowed to hit me in the face, but I do have to ask, what is going on with that guy?" 

The "A Friend To Die For" star, who is also a dear friend to the fill-in host, retorted, "What?! You know I'm not going to answer that."

Cummings did not pester her with the question as she stated that Spelling was someone with boundaries who controlled the narrative by answering questions when and how she wanted to.

At the show, the 48-year-old appeared in a lively mood despite the troubles she was facing in her home; plus, she chose not to put on her wedding ring during the broadcast.

An insider revealed that the California-born's appearance did not reflect her marital difficulties, and she was happy to have flown there for her friend even though she hated flying.
