DEAN

I've taken up a fast new hobby.


Since last season a lot has been going on. My son Jack moved back to LA ...Yay!! Tori and Jack's relationship is awesome. They hit if off from the moment they met. And their relationship grows stronger everyday.

Liam's talking up a storm and Stella's growing like a weed. Liam's a great big brother. At first he was like, "Who is this new baby and when is it leaving?" And now, he adores her and gives her lots of hugs and kisses. He had a good role model in his big brother Jack. Juggling two babies isn't very different from having just one. There's not a lot of difference between two babies and one baby. When you're in "parent-mode" there's not a lot of difference between 1 or 3 kids...

I've taken up a fast new hobby. I've been riding since I was 16 and on Father's Day last year, T rented me a Ducoti for the summer. The owner, Santiago Campa, got me into racing with Fast Track Riders and now I have my WERA race license.

Dean, I love the show and what you and Tori have is so real and inspirational. I love seeing you guys do what the rest of us do, balance work, kids, try to be a couple and have a little something left over for yourself. Don't listen to the haters!

Dearest Tori and Dean,
First of all love love love the shows. It's very nice to see that you two are extremely grounded (not to mention hilariously insecure and gassy like the rest of us) people. HOWEVER Mr. Dean, I was extremely disappointed to see you rocking an Oilers shirt in 'The Fin and the Furious' episode. It kinda made me sad, therefore I expect to see a plethora of Leafs memorabilia featured in every episode to come. I am living in Edmonton right now and have not forsaken my beloved Leafs (no matter how horrible they are). Also thought I would let you know -in case you don't already, being so far south and all- the legendary Pat Quinn has been hired as head coach for the Oilers. Here's hoping he can make som Quinnesque magic like only he can.
Best of luck, lots of love, keep being the awesomenest celebs with a reality T.V. show

I think Tori and Dean's show is real. They argue and fight like any couple but in the end , the love for each other makes them overcome .And the fact that Dean gives in to Tori does not make him a lesser man and come on!! women will always be women. And you go Dean, keep up the racing!!! Makes you more youthful ,fit and sexier for your beautiful wife!!!! And Tori is not selfish!! She truly cares about Dean!!! I love your show!!!

MaryJo Eustace, now there is a woman and a mother worth praising...Dean, I'm sorry but you and Tori bite...Tori is just plain ugly and without plastic surgery and all that make-up, she's even uglier and no amount of money or plastic surgery can buy real beauty, not even a bottle of blonde hair dye...

Know what makes MaryJo a really neat woman? She doesn't need blogs or reality TV's or recognition outside of her family and close friends to know she's doing right...

Dean, I think you are a wonderful dad to the kids. The only thing that bothers me is that you give in to Tori too much. She seems to be selfish at times and whines a lot. You are great! Keep on keepin on with those precious children.

Child?? The man is an idiot, he up and left his 1st wife and children for this....leaving them to deal with the all the hurt and pain and questions and while he prances around on TV with this...and I can't believe that people are actually singing his praises. Seriously, what kind of reality is that?

Dean, what I want to know is what happened with your 1st family and the children from that previous marriage? I mean it seems like there is no room for them in your "new life." I'm just curious, since you seem to live an open book lifestyle...reality tv show and all...how much time do you devote to the children of your 1st marriage?

hey Dean! im sooo glad you have your own blog now! everyone needs time away from time to time, i see the closeness that u and Tori have and i saw on tuesday's episode that Tori needs to give some back to you ( no offence Tori i am a huge fan and have been since 90210) and a huge fan of your fathers and alot of his shows. Tori even needs time away, i saw that on tuesday, even if it is a few hours of her time once a week , you need to give up something or u will become grumpy Alot, i know because i take care of my 82 year old grandfather that mean the world to me.even i need to get out for a few hours to see a movie and eat some popcorn. start being selfish Tori, just to take some time for yourself and by yourself , or with a friend every now and again. a true and loyal fan. OH, i have to say that i did and had to read Candy's book .i can sum it up in one word , Boring! it took me days to get through the book and with Tori's 1st book, 2 days. im ready for MommyWood now.im gonna Blog to tori now, take care Dean and you do have a beautiful family, no matter how it started. i just cant believe how much and fast that Stella has grown and Liam too. they are Too cute!

It's very hard balancing home, work and fun. Being married, you have to think about your partner & kids. I can understand you taking the job when moving but going off to do hobbies is another story. I understand you need your own time, but so does Tori. If the 2 of you are working your butts off, is it fair to leave for a few hours/day to ride a motorcycle or dive? What would be better would be to set Tori up at the spa for the day; getting a baby sitter so that you can both relax.

MOTORCYCLE - I've ridden all of my life, so I understand. Honestly, racing is for 20 year olds that don't have a family. You have 3 kids; how would they be without their father? How about Tori? Do you think she could handle losing you when losing her father is still probably painful to her (especially with Candy's latest low blows).

I like you as a person; (I won the McDeany shirt) I think you are good for Tori. You're a good dad/husband. You & Tori went through a lot to be together. Don't throw that away for a few hours of dangerous fun.

DEAN! You are such an awesome person! I love the show. You are very blessed to have such a beautiful family. PLEASE PLEASE be safe on the motorcycle! I had someone very close to me get killed by a very bad driver in a car. You have to ALWAYS be on the defensive!! God Bless you all and please make sure Tori always knows what A SUPER mom she is!! What a great role model!! I will pray for her mother. It's so sad what she is doing. I can only imagine how Tori feels. TORI YOU ARE GREAT!! Always remember that!

HI DEAN WE LOVE YOU TORI AND THE BABYS. MY LITTLE NIECES LOVE YOU AND TORI SHE CRY WHEN YOU GO OFF EACH TIME WE WATCH THE SHOW. LOVE YOU ALL. GOD BLESS.

How old are you, Dean? I think it's time for you to grow up and become a better husband and father. Tori doesn't need another child in her life, she needs a partner. You're in your 40's and racing around could be a dangerous hobby with kids needing a father. Dumb idea. But, the more I watch the show, the less it seems you use common sense. I think Tori could do better.

Dean,
I just wanted to write a note of encouragement to you and Tori. These are the best years and the toughest years when the kids are young! You both beat yourself up so much about 'the balancing act' which only proves that you are both great parents and partners. Once you no longer CARE if the other person is getting enough time, then you better worry. Keep your hobby because even though you may feel guilty at times, to stop you might feel resentful and that is not healthy for the relationship either. Encourage Tori to find a hobby that she can do within the busy life. Even if it is basket weaving while the kids nap. Not all hobbies take a lot of time, but spending a while doing something you love recharges the batteries!! Give Tori hugs from all of us who watch and send you all warm wishes.

i adore your family. I pray u stay as happy as u seem. Always communicate and be understanding of each others feelings. I feel sad for Tori's mother only because i have a 2 and half year old granddaughter and i cannot imagine not seeing that little smile at least 2 times a week. i would love more grandchildren. i thought being a mom was the greatest but God always has a way of surprising us so if she don't want the job I will gladly be there grandma cause its even better than being a mom. LOL no kidding you guys need a mom to talk to just let me know

HI Dean!
Love the show and all the fantastic electronics on the show. You mentioned after moving into your new home how wonderful the floor vac you had was! Please tell me what kind it is!!! We have hardwoods and pets too! It looked lightweight too! I know, weird question! Thanks and love watching the show!
Jean

it's fine to have your own hobby-absence makes the heart grow fonder!hope t & the kids continue to make you happy.have a nice day =)

I still think you and Tori should open up your own talent agency. I think your both smart and know the hollywood business inside and out. My daughter wants to be an actress and has been told she has the potential. I would love it if she had role models like ya'll to guide her and be her managers. Love tha show!

Hey Dean, I love the show a lot it is the best ever. I am addicted to the show right now. You guys have me hooked into. Who do you think Liam and Stella looks more like you or Tori? I have 2 nieces named Kaitlyn and Keira I remember when Keira was born I saw Kaitlyn point to the baby now she gives her kisses all the time. Kaitlyn is 1 years old and the baby Keira is still a newborn she was born in March. I love being an aunt a lot.

Hi Dean,

I just watched your first show of the season. I have been there and done that with kids and career and the big BALANCING act. Tori has a lot of pressure on her at this point. I wrote to her on her blog but she has a lot of people writing to her and is so busy she probably won't get my message. However, if you want to read my recommendation to her regarding SEX, please ready the comment I sent to her under the name Marie, May 27 at 1:13 and again at 1:30. You're a great guy and every girl should be so lucky. I hope you two are able to work out the balancing act so that everyone's needs are met.

I started watching you guys when you were renovating the Inn and I haven't stopped. I am so happy that both of your careers are taking off. It is so nice to see the good guys prosper for a change. I have been a fan of Tori's since 90210 and even before that when she was Violet on Saved by the Bell. I think that you guys are remarkable and your relationship is amazing. I have been in a bad relationship and have since found my soulmate. NOTHING is better than being in GOOD love. I wish you and your family all the best and thank you for sharing a little of yourselves with us! I look forward to the rest of Season 4!! Thank you! thank you! thank you!

I just want to say that you are a great husband to Tori and Dad to Jack, Liam, and Stella no matter what anyone else says about you and your past. You are a lot like my husband or vice versa (my husband is a lot like you) it's so funny. I am glad to hear that Jack has moved closer and you guys can be a family. I hope that you can help Tori eventually achieve her version of a "stay at home mom" because really there is no slowing her down completely but enough so that she can have that experience. I wish you guys the best and am looking forward to the rest of this season!

Loved the season premiere. You had me laughing out loud when you said "that's right...I'm a douche bag," your honesty is endearing. I'm in love with how in love you and Tori are. If only all men learned from you and your total comfort in expressing love for your wife. Thanks for letting us into your journey and stay safe racing.

I just watched the first show of the new season tonight, I was shocked to see that you had moved again already, but I am so happy for you that Jack has moved to LA now and you are now closer to him, that is wonderful news Dean. The kids grow up so quickly don't they? Just be sure to make Tori take time out to smell the roses along her hard working journey and the same goes for you too. You both have allot going for you and my thoughts and prayers are with you all daily.

I just wanted to say congrats on having such a wonderful family.& a wonderful life..u guys are more in love than many people I know, and being a nurse I meet a lot of people. You also have the most wonderful friends ever...thank god for your life its a good one..thanks for allowing all of to see a glimpse into your life...cant wait to see the rest of the season!
