Biography
Tori Spelling net worth is estimated at just $1 million, a striking contrast to the enormous wealth of her father, legendary TV producer Aaron Spelling, who was worth an estimated $600 million at his death in 2006. Despite starring in Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990–2000) — produced by her father — Tori received a reportedly modest $800,000 inheritance after his death while his estate went largely to her mother Candy Spelling. She has written several memoirs including sTORI Telling (2008) and starred in multiple reality shows, but has faced repeated public financial struggles, including bankruptcy filings, tax liens, and creditor lawsuits reported as recently as 2024.
