Tori Spelling and mom Candy pictured together for first time in 5 years
After years of feuding, it appears Tori Spelling and her mom, Candy Spelling, have finally patched up their relationship.
The mother-daughter duo – who have not been photographed together publicly for five years – were snapped on a Malibu beach on Monday, seemingly enjoying each other’s company.
They were joined by Tori’s husband, Dean McDermott, “Million Dollar Listing” star Josh Flagg and his boyfriend Andrew Beyer.
The former “Beverly Hills, 90210” star, 49, rocked a beige lace bikini top with high-waisted black trousers while her mother, 76, wore a black and white maxi dress with a matching hat and silver jewelry.
They strolled the beach until finding a spot to stop and set up chairs just a short distance from the ocean’s waves.
In several of the snaps, Tori could be seen sitting on the sand and looking up dotingly at her mother as they chit-chatted.
Meanwhile, photogs caught a smiling McDermott entertaining their 5-year-old son, Beau.
The peaceful outing follows years of tension between Tori and Candy, as they became estranged shortly after the death of Candy’s husband and Tori’s father, Aaron Spelling. The late legendary TV exec left Tori with an $800,000 inheritance out of his estimated $500 million fortune.
Tori also once claimed that Candy never notified her of her father’s 2006 passing. For her part, Candy alleged that she asked Tori to come home when Aaron was near death – but didn’t because she was filming a movie in Toronto with McDermott.
Candy told People in 2009 that she and Tori weren’t speaking at the time and that she barely had a relationship with her grandchildren. She claimed their estrangement is what prompted her to sell the $150 million Spelling mansion the family had previously occupied since 1991.
“If I had any hope that I would have a relationship with my grandchildren I would never sell this house. I’ve fantasized for years about a wonderful playhouse on the grounds for children.”
She sold the home in 2011 and moved into a $47 million condo.
It seems, however, that their past problems have been resolved, with Tori first speaking on their reconciliation briefly during a 2019 visit to “Watch What Happens Live.”
“What’s your current relationship like with your mom, Candy?” host Andy Cohen asked, to which she responded, “It’s good, really good right now.”
She went on to add that her children now love to visit their grandmother’s luxe apartment, deemed by Candy as “the manor in the sky.”
“My kids, the first time they saw it, they were like, ‘Grandma lives in a hotel!’”
