Tori Spelling's problems with spending have become notorious over the years. As ET reported in 2016, American Express sued the actor for $38,000. That same year, also got in trouble with the state of California, along with husband Dean McDermott, when they failed to pay nearly $260,000 in taxes. "Even when I try to embrace a simpler lifestyle, I can't seem to let go of my expensive tastes," she wrote in her memoir "Spelling It Like It Is," recalling how her impulsive real estate decisions had sabotaged her family's finances. "Even when my tastes aren't fancy, they're still costly. I moved houses to simplify my life, but lost almost a million dollars along the way."

In a 2008 interview with ABC News, Spelling blamed her privileged upbringing as the daughter of an incredibly successful producer. "Bad shopping habits die hard," she explained. "In all honesty, I grew up a certain way. I never had to worry about money ... that was my reality." The Hollywood princess had a rude awakening when "Beverly Hills, 90210" was canceled in 2000 and she fell into credit card debt for the first time. Spelling didn't want to ask her father for a loan, however. "That means, in my mind, I was what everyone thought I was, taking money from my dad, the rich little girl that he paid for everything. And I just refused to be that," the actor declared, adding that she would rather file for bankruptcy.
