Tori Spelling’s Shocking Monthly Income Revealed Amid Dean McDermott’s Divorce Proceedings

I’m Jaden Patel, and I’ll be guiding you through the latest celebrity gossip with a dash of dry humor. As a seasoned observer of the rich and famous, I’ve got the scoop on Tori Spelling’s finances, and it’s a doozy.
Dean McDermott has spilled the tea on his and estranged wife Tori Spelling’s monthly earnings in an income and expense declaration obtained by E! News. According to the documents, Tori’s monthly income ranges from $3,000 to $75,000, depending on the job. Yes, you read that right – a whopping $75,000 per month. To put that into perspective, that’s roughly $900,000 per year.
The income and expense declaration, filed on September 5, also reveals that Tori has custody of their four minor children 90% of the time, while Dean has visitation with their youngest son, Beau, on the first, third, and fifth weekends of each month. As for Dean’s own income, he estimated his average monthly earnings to be around $3,800 from his work as an alcohol and drug counselor at the Conscious Community & Vanity Recovery rehabilitation center.
But that’s not all – Dean also revealed that his live-in girlfriend, Lily Calo, earns roughly $600 per month, which he claimed does not contribute to their living expenses. Meanwhile, Dean has earned no income from acting and producing in the last year, citing “SAG/AFTRA strikes and change in the industry” as the reason for the drastic decrease in his work.
Now, let’s talk about debt. Dean alleged that he is $215,700 in debt, with overdue payments on a $200,000 loan from City National Bank, as well as $12,000 in credit card debt to Care Credit and another $2,500 to Capital One. He also listed a $1,200 dental bill, which he last paid an installment on in March.
Despite their breakup in 2023, Dean and Tori have spoken about maintaining a healthy co-parenting relationship and a supportive friendship. In fact, Dean publicly congratulated Tori on doing “an amazing job” while competing on Dancing With the Stars last fall. “I’m so proud of you,” he said in an Instagram video in September 2024. “You put on two beautiful performances on Dancing With the Stars. I saw how hard you worked and I know the injuries that you worked through. Your dedication and your work ethic is amazing.”
But Tori’s not the only celebrity who’s been open about their income. Joe Giudice, ex-husband of The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice, revealed that he and his ex-wife earned a mere $25,000 for their first season on the show. “It was ridiculous,” he said on his daughter Gia’s podcast, Casual Chaos. “But, whatever.”
And then there’s Jenna Johnson, who won season 33 of Dancing With the Stars with partner Joey Graziadei. She shared that contestants receive a starting salary of $125,000, with additional bonuses for semifinalists and finalists. “If you win, it’s not like you get a million dollars,” she said. “You’re just getting a cute trophy together.”
As for dancer salaries, multiple reports suggest that they start at around $1,200 to $1,600 per episode, which can increase to up to $100,000 per season.
In conclusion, it’s clear that being a celebrity comes with its perks – and its pitfalls. From Tori’s fluctuating income to Dean’s debt, it’s a wild ride. And that’s a wrap.
