Tori Spelling and Ex Dean McDermott's $400k Debt Swells With Interest as Exes Ignore Bill for a Decade
Tori Spelling and her estranged husband, Dean McDermott, have refused to settle a massive debt over an unpaid loan, and the bill has grown with $175,000 in interest alone, Us Weekly can exclusively report. On Wednesday, June 11, City National Bank filed court documents as part of the never-ending battle, which revealed the exes have not paid a dime on the six-figure judgment they were ordered to pay on May 22, 2017. The former couple failed to respond to a lawsuit City National filed in December 2016, which led to a default judgment being entered in the amount of $220,088.37. In the new filing, City National Bank asked that the judgment be renewed to allow the bank to continue attempting to collect. The filing revealed Spelling and McDermott's debt has grown with interest to $395,729.82. In the original lawsuit, City National alleged that Spelling, 52, and McDermott, 58, defaulted on a $400,000 loan they took out in 2012. Tori Spelling Files for Divorce From Dean McDermott After Nearly 18 Years of Marriage: Report '[Spelling and McDermott] have failed to satisfy their obligations to [City National] under the terms of the promissory note,' the lawsuit read. At the time the lawsuit was filed, the bank claimed it was owed $190,000. Lawyers for City National asked the court to enter a default judgment in the amount that was owed on the loan. The legal battle has dragged on for years as Spelling and McDermott have avoided paying a dime on the bill. Spelling and McDermott have not made an appearance in the case. Dean McDermott Wants Joint Custody and Spousal Support in Response to Tori Spelling's Divorce Filing As Us previously reported, Spelling and McDermott split in 2023 after 17 years together and five children together: Liam, 18, Stella, 17, Hattie, 13, Finn, 12, and Beau, 8. Spelling filed for divorce in March 2024. In her petition, the actress listed the date of separation as June 17, 2023. The Beverly Hills, 90210 star asked the court to award her spousal support and legal fees. She requested sole custody of their children and proposed joint legal custody. In response, McDermott disputed the date of separation listed by Spelling. He said they split on July 7, 2023, weeks after she claimed the breakup went down. McDermott also asked the court to award him spousal support. He was also not on board with Spelling's request for primary physical custody. McDermott pleaded for joint custody of their kids. The exes have yet to finalize a settlement in the case. How Tori Spelling Feels About Photos of Dean McDermott With Another Woman (Source) As Us previously reported, Spelling has moved on to a new man, CEO . Back in April, a source told Us that the duo were taking it slow but had been seeing each other for 'a few months.' Spelling and Cramer first dated in 2023.

The insider added, 'They have moved past the drama … and both want each other to be happy and in good relationships for the sake of the kids.'

Tyler Perry sued by actor on ‘The Oval' for sexual assault and harassment
An actor who worked on the Tyler Perry-created TV drama 'The Oval' has filed a lawsuit alleging Perry leveraged his industry power to repeatedly sexually assault and harass him while keeping him quiet. The lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court by actor Derek Dixon, who appeared on 85 episodes of the BET series, seeks at least $260 million in damages. 'Mr. Perry took his success and power and used his considerable influence in the entertainment industry to create a coercive, sexually exploitative dynamic with Mr. Dixon — initially promising him career advancement and creative opportunities, such as producing his pilot and casting him in his show, only to subject him to escalating sexual harassment, assault and battery, and professional retaliation,' the lawsuit says. The lawsuit was filed Friday and first reported Tuesday by TMZ. Perry's attorney, Matthew Boyd, said its allegations are false. 'This is an individual who got close to Tyler Perry for what now appears to be nothing more than setting up a scam,' Boyd said in a statement Tuesday. 'But Tyler will not be shaken down, and we are confident these fabricated claims of harassment will fail.' The lawsuit says that Perry first noticed Dixon in 2019 when Dixon was part of the event staff at a Perry party, and later offered an audition. Dixon would first appear in a small role on the Perry series 'Ruthless' before getting the bigger role on the political drama 'The Oval.' Perry soon began sending unwanted sexual text messages to Dixon, according to the lawsuit, which includes screenshots of several of them. 'What's it going to take for you to have guiltless sex?' one of the messages says. The lawsuit says Perry offered Dixon an increasingly prominent role on the show as his sexual advances became more aggressive. The actor says he tried to remain friendly while maintaining boundaries. 'Dixon did his best to tiptoe around Mr. Perry's sexual aggression while keeping on Mr. Perry's good side,' the lawsuit says. 'Mr. Perry made it clear to Dixon that if Dixon ignored Perry or failed to engage with the sexual innuendoes, Dixon's character would 'die.'' The lawsuit says Perry eventually sexually assaulted Dixon on 'multiple occasions,' including an instance where he 'forcibly pulled off Mr. Dixon's clothing, groped his buttocks, and attempted to force himself on Dixon.' Dixon clearly told Perry 'No,' but was initially ignored until he was able to de-escalate the situation and change the subject, according to the lawsuit. The following day, Perry apologized, and told Dixon he would work with Dixon on a TV pilot Dixon was seeking to produce. Dixon later received a raise that the lawsuit suggests was part of an attempt to keep him quiet. He said the fear of his character dying kept him quiet as intended. Perry also produced and bought the rights to the pilot, called 'Losing It,' but the lawsuit alleges Perry had no intention of selling the show and was using it only for leverage over Dixon. The lawsuit describes several other assaults, including one where Dixon was staying in a guest room of Perry's house when Perry climbed into bed with him uninvited and began groping him, the lawsuit alleges. Dixon would eventually move from Atlanta, home to Perry's production studio, to Los Angeles to put distance between the two of them. Dixon in 2024 filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and when that didn't result in any action from the show's producers, he quit. The Associated Press does not typically name people who say they have been sexually abused unless they come forward publicly as Dixon has. 'The Oval' is one of many television series executive produced by, written by and directed by the 55-year-old Perry, who first became known as creator and star of the 'Madea' films and has since built a major production empire in TV and movies. As an actor he has also appeared in the films 'Gone Girl' and 'Don't Look Up.'
