Tori Spelling is lightly praising her estranged husband, Dean McDermott.

The ‘90210’ alum recently spoke to MailOnline about her new MTV show, “Love at First Lie.”

The showed filmed for a month in Malta which is located in the Mediterranean Sea south of Sicily, Italy.

The mother-of-five revealed she was “nervous” to take on the hosting role, but channeled her inner-Ryan Seacrest.

“I was away from my children for almost a month, which was brutal,” Spelling admitted.

“I hated being away from my kids and that was the longest I've ever gone.”

Luckily, McDermott was there to fulfill his fatherly duties.

“I was so excited that Dean was with the kids and so I felt safe that they had their dad there the whole time and I was grateful for that,” she said.

Spelling and McDermott share Liam (15), Stella (14), Hattie (11), Finn (10) and Beau (5).
