Tori Spelling talks about Dean as a Guilty Dad and her role as SM

I am guilty of watching True Tori and being a fan of her's.

I watched this week's episode. Tori talks about being a SM and how she has to tread lightly and how she is always the evil SM no matter what she does. She also talked about how Dean is a guilty dad because of the divorce and how it ended. It was a little odd hearing her basically say the same stuff that we all say here. I guess Step Hell has no financial boundaries. Celeb or not. LOL.

Mary Jo was on the show as well. First she is prettier then I thought she was. And her hair is amazing! LOL. Personality wise, she comes across kind of snooty, idk if that is the right word. Very "mature" and wise old woman. I found it very hard to picture her with Dean, who is like a freakin little kid. I'm not a fan of her personality.

With all the problems Dean has with cheating and drugs/drinking, emotional issues, Mary Jo is probably thanking her lucky stars that she isnt with him anymore. Dean is just a wreck.

That's somewhat comforting I guess. Celebs have issues too even though they tend to have financial stability, which a lot of us in here don't due to CS payments. Nice to know even with the money, the problems are universal.

Right! In general though I think a good indicator of how the relationship started or how your SO was in prior relationships, is most likely how they are going to be in the relationship with you.

I know. I think sometimes people who have always been 'famous' or rich, like Tori, just don't understand real life. IMHO, her marriage to Dean only lasted so long because they were busy the whole time with reality shows and babies.

I agree! I think their initial attraction was based off of lust. Then they kept having baby after baby and reality show after reality show.

I didn't realize that Dean had kid(s) with Mary Jo. I haven't seen the show but I hear a lot about them in the media.

It's nice to know it's not just us regular people who deal with this stuff.

They actually showed the little girl (Lola) on last nights show. It was about Jack's (Mary Jo and Dean's son) 16th birthday party and it was held at Dean and Tori's house. Dean even gave Lola a hug.

I always find it funny when women blame other women for being "homewreckers" etc when it was the man who did the pursuing and the woman finally gave in after resisting the advances for quite some time. Yeah it's wrong all the way around but I always thought it was odd to see two women in a weave snatching row over some guy.

Stepaside, free willy is RIGHT!

Very true. Often they get WORSE. No matter WHO started the affair (usually the guy)

I watched this as well and wondered if Tori was one of our SMs on here LOL
Everything she said was spot on with what is said here.
Dean is a flippin mess! When he was crying about leaving home and his kid beggin him not to, Was pitiful. Tori handled that well and validated his feelings but was kinda like 'suck it up buttercup, that was then and now we have to get some boundries in place and go from now'
I agree, MaryJo was kinda uppity and snooty. But very pretty.

I felt bad for her when she was talking about how she was protrayed in the media. Because that is totally how I pictured her as well. But the part when she said she was known as funny and light and airy, that part I DO NOT agree with. Still shocked about how pretty she is, like classy pretty.

Yeah, I felt bad for her too. And she agreed to stay on camera where Toris ex would not let cameras in.
So I think she wanted to counteract all the negative crap about her for the last 8 years.
I am sure alot more was said off camera or edited out. She did seem a bit smug when she was telling Tori to "own it"
Apparently Dean quits the show on the next episode over this little meeting.....

Keep in mind though, Mary Jo's got lots of experience in front of the camera - I've never thought her brand of funny was all that funny, it comes across snarky and unkind to me, but she was a C-list Canadian 'celebrity' for some time so knows how to show herself well for the camera.

Now that I live overseas, I can literally hear how Canadian Mary Jo sounds: almost every statement is almost, but not quite, a question!
