Others speculated about the future of her online presence, asking, "Are we doing only fans next?" Critiques also targeted the implications of her actions on her family, with comments like, "Seriously? Put some clothes on and stop cashing in on your marriage ending" and"It's no wonder children of celebrities grow up with no morals and disrespectful I mean I couldn't even imagine my mother posting something like this as a kid or an adult."

Like her controversial post, the inaugural episode of her podcast, released on April 1, 2024, was just as revealing. She delved into the personal and deeply emotional journey of her divorce from Dean McDermott after 18 years of marriage.

The episode marked a bold step for Spelling, who said, "I just filed for divorce. I just said the words that I said like in my head for 16 years." Spelling opened up about the inner conflict she had for years, starting with the desire for a fairytale romance versus the realities of their relationship.

Admittedly, the "90210" actress already felt the challenges in her marriage early on. "It shouldn’t have made 18 years," she revealed. "It would have been over a lot sooner. However, the road to divorce was pushed back as they had more children.

Since announcing their separation last year, Spelling and McDermott have seemingly moved on with their lives. In a notable development, McDermott was seen holding hands with Lily Calo, a senior accountant, in October.

Following suit, Tori Spelling was also seen embarking on a new chapter in her love life. After parting ways with McDermott in June, she was spotted with a new man, indicating her readiness to move forward.

The man identified as Ryan Cramer, CEO of Neuron Syndicate Inc., an advertising agency based in Santa Monica, has been seen sharing intimate moments with Spelling, particularly locking lips during a date night in Los Angeles.

Despite these new beginnings, it's clear that moving on from a long-term relationship is a complex and emotional journey. The pain from the end of her marriage to McDermott lingers for Spelling, underscoring the fact that healing is a process that takes time.

This was evident during a poignant moment in her podcast, where Spelling was interrupted by a call that seemed to be from her ex. Following the call, amidst the vulnerability of a room full of friends and the ongoing recording, Spelling confessed a profound sense of isolation.
