Tori Spelling’s “financial troubles are real” amid her RV stay, according to a new report.
After the actress was photographed living at a campground in Ventura County, Calif., with her five children Wednesday, a source shared that Spelling is “struggling monetarily.”
“The mold situation [at her house] is real, but it has been difficult for her to find a place to stay during it because her financial situation is not great,” the insider told “Entertainment Tonight.”
Spelling is “doing her best to make things work and take care of her kids,” according to the source, while viewing her trailer park stay “as a mini vacation rather than a living situation.”
The “Beverly Hills, 90210” star, 50, and her kids — Liam, 16, Stella, 15, Hattie, 11, Finn, 10, and Beau, 6 — made headlines earlier this month for briefly staying at a budget motel.
Spelling defended the $100-a-night stay in the Los Angeles area on July 17.
“Are you a parent? You know you would do whatever you can for your kids, right?” she asked a paparazzo.
Later that same week, the TV star blasted realtor Robert Vinson for “mocking” her family’s housing “crisis,” sharing alleged texts from him via her Instagram Stories.
“The latest bizarre inquiry,” he wrote. “Tori Spelling has been asking for a 1 month rental. If you follow her situation on TMZ it is all amusing.”
Spelling replied, “Wow! Human empathy and kindness prevails. Kids in crisis is amusing.”
While sharing the alleged exchange with her social media followers, she wrote, “My 5 kids are going through Mold poisoning and we need a home and this is how you treat people? Mocking their situation?”
The “Stori Telling” author revealed in May that her children were ill after they had been exposed to “extreme” mold in their rental home for months.
“We now know that when the house was labeled a health hazard and not live able [sic] that wording was FACT,” she wrote via Instagram. “We now GET IT! It’s hard to just uproot a huge family especially in midst of all feeling so sick and in bed. But, we now will vacate the home asap.”
The following month, news broke that Spelling and her husband, Dean McDermott, had separated after 17 years of marriage.
“@torispelling and I have decided to go our separate ways, and start a new journey of our own,” the actor, 56, wrote in a since-deleted statement in June. “We will continue to work together as loving parents and guide and love our children through this difficult time.”
While speaking about the split, Tori’s mom, Candy Spelling, told TMZ that she would “of course” bail out her daughter financially if needed.
“I will always be there for her,” the 77-year-old said. “I love my daughter, and I support her in whatever she does.”
