Tori Spelling and then-husband Dean McDermott have five children and enough pets to open their own farm before their 2023 split.
“I have dogs, I have guinea pigs, I have pigs, I have chickens, I have bearded dragons …,” Spelling revealed in a 2019 video on her YouTube channe.
Spelling and McDermott, who is also father of son Jack with ex-wife Mary Jo Eustace, share sons Liam, Finn and Beau, and daughters Stella and Hattie. Stella, born in 2008, specifically calls herself “mom” to several of the family’s pets, including cat Bean and dog Thea. (Bean went missing in late 2022.)
The Spelling-McDermott family has a strong bond with all of their animals.
“[My bearded dragon] likes to sit on my head. He watches all my reality shows with me … Housewives and Kardashians,” Spelling revealed in her 2019 YouTube video in 2019. “He has a favorite Kardashian. He loves Khloé.”

The family’s cat went missing in late 2022. “He is the love of our lives and my kids are devastated!” Spelling wrote via Instagram at the time, alongside pertinent information about Bean for anyone searching. “My 14 year old daughter who suffers major anxiety is his human. Bean knows before she gets her panic attacks and lays on her chest and kneads biscuits.”
