Tori Spelling and her ex-husband hit with $1.3 million-plus bill for unpaid federal and state taxes

In a huge blow for the former couple, actress Tori Spelling and her ex-husband have been hit with a bill for more than $1.3 million in unpaid federal and state taxes.

Tori Spelling and her ex-husband have been hit with a bill for more than $1.3 million in unpaid federal and state taxes.

The fee is contained in the final judgment in the actress’ divorce from Dean McDermott, with whom she has now formally ended a 17-year marriage.

The judgment, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court and reported by Fox News Digital and Page Six, shows the former couple — Tori, 52, and Dean, 59 — owe $1.2 million to the IRS and more than $500,000 to the California Franchise Tax Board.

Documents state each will be responsible for at least $600,000 of the federal tax debt, and that the state tax bill will be split evenly.

The filings also reveal a series of additional debts accumulated over years.

The pair owe $37,000 to American Express, and continue to carry a long-standing balance with City National Bank stemming from a six-figure loan taken more than a decade ago that has since grown to nearly $400,000.

Further sums include Tori owing $288,000 to a private individual, $69,000 to another unnamed individual and $10,228 in uninsured medical costs.

Dean owes $22,000 from a student loan and a further $20,609 in uninsured medical bills.

The financial disclosures accompany earlier filings detailing the pair’s respective incomes.

In an income and expense declaration filed on 5 September and obtained by Page Six, Dean claimed Tori’s monthly earnings fluctuate between $3,000 and $75,000 “depending on the job”.

He stated his income stands at $3,800 per month, explaining his earnings fell sharply over the past year “due to the SAG/AFTRA strikes and change in the industry”.

He added: “My acting and producing work has decreased drastically.”

Tori and Dean announced their separation in June 2023 after nearly two decades together, and the actress filed for divorce nine months later.

Their split was finalised earlier this month, with Tori filing court documents outlining agreements on support, asset division and custody arrangements.

The former couple share five children – Liam, 18, Stella, 17, Hattie, 14, Finn, 13, and Beau, 8.

Dean also has a 27-year-old son, Jack, from his previous relationship with Mary Jo Eustace.
