Why is everybody blaming Tori for her mother's actions?? Life is too short....blah, blah blah. Candy hasn't seen Liam in a year and still hasn't met Stella, my Gosh if it were me I would have been there from day one, welcoming my grandchildren into this world. Nobody could keep me away from my grandchildren, for me, my grandkids give us a second chance to make up for whatever mistakes we made with our own children. Second chances Candy, you lady are just a rich spoiled bitch, swallow your pride and call, no riches can compare to the love those two adorable grandkids can give you. Don't blame Tori!!!!

Tori,
I love your show and I watch and I admire how you do living in the public eye so much. It was sad when your father passed because you two were close for so long. Sometimes parents do not like our choices we make in life, but all I can say to that is your Mother is so missing out. I myself married while in the military and my parents were not happy about who I chose only because he came from Alabama, which to them meant I would never come back to Michigan. So for over 22 yrs we had a very cold relationship. They made me not to want to come back with my family.They turned out to be the funniest people. We stayed about 2 yrs all together.We got very close. Then my father passed 5 yrs later of Lung Cancer and it would of killed me if I had never got to really know him and love him again, because of something I felt wasn't anything I done but a misunderstanding.I have those great memories.The best ones of my life with them. Now my Mom is taking Chemo for Lung Cancer also. Even though I still live so far away I can call her when ever to check on her and I go back hopefully once a month to help out with her care.My kids got to know both there grandparents and really enjoyed them.
I see how you try to connect with your Mom and it saddens me that she could miss out on the best thing ever..GRANDCHILDREN. I myself have 5 with the last being a girl. They live in differant states so I don't get to see them about once or twice a year and thats a killer. I want them all the time. So hopefully in time which I would hope to be soon, she will just say to hell with it.., I love my children and grandchildren and need to have a relatioship with them.

Hi Tori! Do you & Dean even know how much your fans love you guys??!!?!?!? I, for one, simply adore you (& your beautiful babies)!! I'm a 40-year-old who has watched you grow up & I am so impressed with the level-headed, kind, stylish woman you've become. I've watched you in everything from "90210" to your current shows & I've empathized with many of your trials & tribulations - I'm 100% behind you & your conflicted feelings toward your Mom (I had the same type of relationship with my Mom) - I wish I could give you some solid advice - unfortunately, there's no quick, general solution that adequately applies to all. And don't even get me started on the press you've received about your figure - don't listen to any of it, unless, of course, they say "she's a healthy, beautiful, busy Mom" - anything else is BS. Congratulations on your happiness with Dean & your babies - you deserve the best!!! You & Dean are so meant for each other - you both have that cool/fun attitude but still seem very down-to-earth, responsible & approachable. Keep up the good work with your professional endeavors & don't let the haters get you down - you rock!!
Sincerely,
Melanie K. Allen-McCune

Tori & Dean -
You have the life that we all wish for. Not because you are sucessful in your careers but, because your family is the central part of life. Despite the Hollywood and all that it comes with, you have built a life that revolves around the people that you love - Each other, your children, your friends that are family, and really, even your family, despite its faults and flaws, difficulies and needs to mix. I never watch reality shows as they seem to me very out of touch with reality. Your family refreshes me, its realness, total love, and the clear motivation to make a life that includes those things - money or not. Thanks for being famous and still being a part of the world that the rest of us live in. Your family and the love that you have for one another is what we should all be striving for in life.

Thanks,
From someone who screwed it all up without even Hollywood to interfere.

This is in response to Candy Spelling's public post to her daughter, Tori . . . . Candy, please . . . you are a wretched, jealous, 'never-been' that has been relegated to living in the shadows of your brilliant husband, Aaron, and talented, gorgeous daughter, Tori. I feel sorry for you. My Mother died in 2006 (she was 56 years old) & I'm just thankful she & I were more level-headed & fair with one another & sorted out our silly disagreements (in private, mind you) long before her demise - I would have certainly regretted having a mother like you. You are petty & you've become accustomed to having people cater to you (by no great feat of your own) & it's about time you put away the passive-aggressive ensemble in which you've so gallantly attired yourself & be the adult. How nasty of you to post an open letter to your daughter on an entertainment website??? Come on - a Spelling should have demonstrated far more class. Old, tired, bitter, remorseful hags show their fangs when they feel they've earned the right. Just so you know, the many, many birthdays you've had doesn't make it acceptable for you to unfairly trash your daughter (in the national spotlight, no doubt). Take a cue from Tori, do something constructive with your life (the remainder of it) & be a more positive person - after all, you do have the 'advantage' of age & experience on your side, right? Careful, Candy . . . your high-dollar manicure is showing. Sincerely, Melanie K. Allen-McCune

Tori my daugther and I love to watch your show I'm sooooooo sorry about your mom I've had many family problems with my mom and grandmother. Keep your head up because you have a wonderful family and they need you to be strong. You will always have people talk about you but your husband and kids will love you unconditionally always focus on them. I noticed you were making baby food you should post some of your recipes online I'd like to hear some. Good luck

Tori,
Keep your head up with the mom issue. I had serious issues with my mother that have effected my adult life. She exposed me to situations that you just don't expose your children to. I have had to learn that my mother was not able to see the damage because she was not capable of facing the damage that was done. There will come a day when you will be able to forgive, but you will never forget. Maybe that is a good thing, because it will help you to be the parent that you know your children need and will help guide those day to day steps. Thank God that you have a great man in your life who is on the same sheet of music. My wife has been my rock, and has helped me through the rough spots. I have two children of my own, a son that is serving in the US Army, and a daughter who is in highschool. It is important for them to know the grandparents, but not essential. Take your time, and try to find some common ground with your mother, and pray for her.God is able to change all situations. She will never admit any wrong doing, so don't expect it. Just take it for what it is, and enjoy your wonderful family. You have truly been blessed.

God bless you and your family.

JARED

Dean and Tori,
I have to confess, I don't watch the show very much, but have watched it a few times recently. I just wanted to tell you that I have so much admiration for the both of you. Tori, for the life that I can only imagine that you have had, you surprised not just me but my husband as well. He has only seen a few minutes of the show but told me that you were nothing like he thought you were. I'm sure you get that a lot. It is so refreshing to see you with your family. To see a mother who WANTS to be with her children. To see a husband who WANTS to be with his family. I want to encourage you both to never step off of the path that you are on WITH each other. Cling to each other like I see you doing on the show. You don't see that very often these days. Your relationship with your children is the MOST important thing in this world. Money cannot buy it. I can tell that Dean, you adore Tori and Tori you adore Dean and you both adore your babies. And, what sweet, beautiful babies they are! Please don't ever change, either one of you. Don't let "Hollywood" infect you like I see it doing to most everyone else. I am very impressed with the both of you! Dean, to get rid of your bikes....dude....that spoke volumes to me! You sacrificed something that brought you pleasure because you knew what it did to Tori. That is LOVE! I must admit, I would have felt the same way as Tori. It is just too dangerous when you have little ones looking to you and depending on you, not to mention a wife that loves you very much. They need you and I know that you need them. I have lost some family to motorcycle accidents. Way to go! Very mature and wise and I think that is very attractive. My husband and I have a 6-year-old daughter named Anna Grace and she is our LIFE! Wish we could come to Hollywood 1 day just to say that we saw it...Ha! Ha! I wish you both the best of luck in all that you do and remember, your family takes priority over EVERYTHING! Don't let ANYONE make you think otherwise.

Tori,
I have been debating actually leaving a comment or anything becase I am not the type to do that. But the more I read your books, the more I want to say.... HOLY CRAP! I didn't know that someone else in this world actually went through the kind of drama that I have. I come from a small town in Saskatchewan, Canada, and I would have never thought that someone could possibly go through this. I have just become a fan of your show, so I had to buy your books.( I love them!) The more I read the more I felt your emotions with every sentence. My mother and I DO NOT have a great relationship at all. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer about 5 years ago, and to tell you the truth, I was the one who distanced myself from her. It scared me. I'm not good with change, or fear. I overthink things ALL the time. I am always paranoid and thinking the worst with EVERY situation(sound familiar?) But I supported her, visited her in the hospital, hung out with her, everything that I thought I should do. I never had a bad childhood, just one full of fear. I never knew what to expect when my parents got home from work. What would they be mad at me for today? I lied a lot to get out of trouble, but I don't regret it. My mother and I were never close, we never had the sex talk, we never had the same ideas, we never agreed on anything. But my childhood was great, I was not spoiled, but I was well off, my parents taught me the value of a job and expenses and all that. I am thankfull for that. I have always been a daddy's girl. I loved my dad. He never had much to say, he was just there, but I think thats why I love him so much. He let me do my thing, have my own thoughts and opinions, friends and what not. I was recently married in March. (Oh did I mention my mothers name is Candy?!) Well Candy critisized me about a winter wedding(Hello? She got married in February!) So wedding planning went on, my ideas were scratched because guess who was paying for it(That's right! Candy!) I had a 1920's themed wedding. My husband Matt thinks he's a ganster( He's 5 foot 6 at the most and the sweetest man ever, not my idea of "ganster") So we had our whole wedding themed around Al Capone. Dean Martin was played constantly at our wedding(I love him!) All the groomsmen wore fedora's, the ladies in boa's, and the entire guest list dressed accordingly. The wedding was great, the happiest time of my life...I married the man I love, and we were ready to start our lives together. The wedding planning on the other hand..... shoot me in the skull... please! I had asked my best friend of 21 years to be my maid of honor, my sister would be next to her, and 2 other friends of mine. Well, when I had announced that, sh*t hit the fan. "What do you MEEAAANN your sister is not your maid of honor?!" Well my sister and I were never that close to begin with, my best friend was more of a sister than my blood sister ever was. Drama started surrounding me. My mom would call me at work and YELL! She would cry and say please, and make me feel terrible. I would think to myself, isn't it MY choice? It's MY wedding, it's MY life! My best friend( oh how I care for her) had a rough go too. My sister and mother teamed up against us over my wedding shower! I thought the bridesmaids were supposed to plan it, well my mother wanted HER best friend to plan it. Fine, great, the more the marrier right? Well no that was not how my mother thought, She wanted my best friend to have NOTHING to do with ANYTHING involving my wedding. They spread lies about her, they completely resented her for being my best friend. My best friend, unfortunately, had no choice(for her sanity) to drop out of the wedding. How can I blame her, my mother and sister completely ruined the excitement for her. There I was, left with no maid of honor. What do I do now? Do I ask someone else?(We had already bought the dresses!) Who would fit into it! Do I bring up a bridesmaid to maid-of-honor status and leave my sister behind just to get back at my family? Or do I suck it up and ask my sister. To make peace, guess what I did? I asked my sister. I knew I would regret it. So I ended up becoming really good friends with someone else(who was my best friends size!) and she filled the spot. So there I was, wedding party full(well, you could call it that) but I was heartbroken... I mean my best friend of 21 years would not be there for me. I had meltdown after meltdown(in private, I'm not a bridezilla!) I would cry to my husband. Depression really kicked in. I know that sounds lame and I can't blame the depression on my wedding planning(not wedding, wedding planning). There were lots of things that lead up to that. I am 21 years old and I have lost 12 friends since I was 17 due to various accidents and what not. Things just kept piling up. So to continue on with my wedding planning, my mother just kept trying to start things with me. My ideas were not good enough, my decorating ideas, not good enough( excuse me? I'm a florist, I think I know how to make things look exquisite!) One thing lead to another, and I finally snapped, I cancelled the wedding, planned a trip to Vegas to elope(Just me and Matt, thats ALL we needed to have a marriage right?) That's it, I had enough! I was done! I was not putting up with this ANYMORE! I then get a call from my sister saying(and I'll tone this down", " I hope you're happy with what you've done you little *****!" And she hung up on me. Those words will haunt me for the rest of my life. My mother had taken bottles and bottles of pills(remember, chemo pain killers and that stuff) and she was being rushed to the hospital by ambulance. I left work, and went straight to the hospital. My family was sent to a private waiting room. My dad hugged me and held me and told me everything would be ok, as I cried so hard that I couldn't breathe, I was having another anxiety attack. He told me it was not my fault. My sister showed up and there I was, in a tiny room with the one person i truly hated at that moment. Let me tell you fists were swinging!(Sorry paramedics if I got you by accident!) But I felt so much rage, anger, hate, frustration, guilt, and everything else bad all at once I just took it out on her. I never actually hit her because my older brother(thanks dude), and the paramedics had seperated us. I left the hospital. Oh did I mention this was the day before Christmas Eve! So how was Christmas going to go this year... well I never celebrated it. I sat at home, crying, feeling sorry for myself. Well in the end, I gave in, there was a wedding and my sister was my maid of honor. But in the back of my head I was thinking, this is NOT the end. My mother has continuously tried to start fights with me since the wedding. I mean, ridiculous fights...We have just bought a gorgeous house and we moved in and had both mine and Matt's family over. Well Candy did NOT like that because it wasn't just MY family. Screw her, is what I thought at this point. Fights were started, and I haven't talked to my mother in a month. Up until last Tuesday, when she called me asking why I was at the hospital(my cousin had seen me there and told on me) It turns out, I had a miscarriage... I didn't want ANYONE to know that my body failed on me. I didn't know I was pregnant. I had taken a test and it was negative. I continued with my lifestyle. Which is not a bad lifestyle. I mean occasionally I will have a beer with my replacement bridesmaid after work. I had a couple nights of partying. My body failed on me, no wait, I failed myself is what I thought. But I didn't know! Anyway, my mother asked why I was there, I told her. I broke down. I could have started a family, but before I even knew, it was gone. I am shattered. I feel guilty. I feel terrible.I told her not to tell ANYONE. Only Matt and I knew. And I wanted to keep it that way. Well I have just learned about the respect my mother has for me. She told my dad( he called and felt terrible and asked if I wanted him to come visit, love you daddy!) She told my sister(my enemy), and my sister told her friend and coworker(who happens to be one of my best friends, and bridesmaids mom) and then my friends mom, asked her. So there we go, a chain reaction of people finding out how I'm a failure. This was not her secret to tell. It kills me every single second of every single day. I am heart-broken, shattered, confused and so, so, so hurt.
And that is why I just wanted to say thank-you, Tori. For being an inspiration, and I am so thankful to know that I am not the only one, adn life does go on. I will start a family one day, and I'm not sure if my mother will be a part of their lives...Maybe she will, maybe she won't. But you, Tori, have given me the strength to hold my head high, and let me know that either way, I will have the strength to tolerate and feel comfortable with whatever the outcome. I don't care what ANYONE says, you have a great heart, a very good head on your shoulders, and a great role model. You have a wonderful husband(Yes, I am a fan of Dean, maybe it's a Canadian thing!) and 2 VERY beautiful kids. You are the most REAL hollywood person out there, someone who people(like me) can really look up to.(I'm not going to lie, I would never think that I would look up to Tori Spelling) But after reading your well written books, I am so passed that name you have tried to ignore. You are more than Tori Spelling. You are a fantastic woman all around. So thank-you again Tori, just for being you, and letting all of us get to know and understand you, for who you REALLY are. Take care!

Just a hint from a mother of 4 and grandmother of 11. When asking a toddler a question, never leave
it open to a "no" answer you can't live with.
Like, "Which shorts would you like to wear?"
Instead of "Do you want to wear shorts?"
It gives them a choice that you can live with, and
they feel empowered to have a say. Less stress.
Great show and Good Luck they do grow up so fast!

Dear Tori & Dean,
I had to write and say how beautiful a family you all are! Your kids are so adorable! Liam is a bright little boy and he is super sweet. May you continue to be blessed and keep shaking off the haters! Miserable people want to see others miserable too, don't sink to their level.

Best to you all

Hello Dean,Tori, Liam and Stella,
You are such a great looking family. Dean and Tori you are blessed you are great parents and Also a wonderfull couple full of love for each other. Keep up the good work with your family. Tori i loved you as Donna. It is nice to see you as a wife and Mother now. Keep loving each other and the kids.

Just watched the episode where Tori and Dean are talking about sex and the difference between men and womens sex drive. I have to totally disagree with Tori because MY HUSBAND is the horniess! Trust me! I think that Tori is absolutely right when she said "whats a lot to women is not a lot for men." I think this will always be a debatable issue, because we are talking about Mars and Venus here! There are some exceptions, men who don't like sex often and women who are horn muffins,but I haven't met many!

I think Candy Spelling has connections and uses those connections to get Dean movies that take him away from Tori and the children in an attempt to split them up. I think she uses those connections to get Tori employment so she can make monies to support her family since Aaron Spelling did not leave Tori a fraction of what she should have been given in his will. I really think Candy Spelling is behind everything in Tori's life, that she is in the background guiding their employment in the "movies" that are offered to Dean in which they are shot in Canada that take Dean away from Hollywood and away from his family. Maybe candy is hoping Dean will cheat and Tori will leave him and return home to Mommy.

I am sooo happy for the two of you! i think its wonderful how you wanted to expand your relationship with each other! 7 years is a long time to be with someone and i wish you two many more years together! hope teh search for adoption goes well. anybody would be lucky to go into your family. you are surrounded by wonderful people and you 2 are wonderful. Again best of luck and congrats! <3

Tori is such a sweetheart, and what a good mommy she is!! I'm so proud of her, it's so weird watching someone grow up, even though it is on TV, I still feel like I was there ya know?? anyway, I am really happy that she is doing so good, and how gracious she is with the negative media, and what she said on the A List awards was priceless!!! Chelsea Handler is such a COW!!! what a drunken pig, she is just so unhappy with the way she looks, that she tries to find fault in others, well Tori is a doll!! and is happy with ther life, and that is the best revenge of all!!!
Congrads Guncles, and I wish I was a registered voter in Cali., but I'm not, sorry

Tori, I am So SORRY that your Mother is publicly acting the way she is. I cant even think about how she must be in private. Now we all see a little part of her that you have been talking about all this time. She looks like an a** and now everyone knows the real her.I am a grandmother of 5 and I would walk threw fire, upside down and backwards swalking like a chicken if that meant that was the only way to see my grandkids. I do have love and a close relationship with them that is like nothing I have ever had in my life, different than the love of my children, and I am so grateful for it. Please dont let this consume you. Dont let one second more of your life be waisted on someone who is not worth it. Each moment you are lost in thought of what could have been or what could be with your Mother, you take away moments with your beautiful children. They deserve better, and so do you and Dean. Be strong and let Patsy be your Mother. Maybe she can fill the void that your Mother never will. I am So SORRY you have to go thru this.

Where- which hotel- did Tori & Dean stay in New York City when in town for her book release events?

Okay - not to take away from this weeks episode, the ceremony was great. However, I have seen a common theme in several of the recent shows. This theme is that you (Tori) are being ripped to shreds by the emotional baggage that accompanies the complex relationship you have with your mother. When I signed on to my computer tonight I was surprised to see some of the comments your mother made regarding your children being props to a reality tv program etc... and that she declined to appear at the birthday party when the invitation was extended. I am sorry. I have over the years learned that we all must mature and rise above the dysfunction that our parents inflict upon us. We all must come to the point where we learn to accept the short comings or differences of opinion in order to have a healthy relationship as adults. This refusal to appear and the negative comments; show that she (Mother - Candy) has not matured enough. Where I have some of my own reservations or questions on the dynamics, when someone is this absolutely disrespectful I have to side with Dean and you must wash your hands of the situation. One of the mantras that one of my friends taught me: "We can not change other peoples actions, merely our reactions." In a case like this you must know you extended the invitation, she can not compromise, she wants things her way and nothing else - this is a control issue. If she was an adult, she would have contacted you directly and declined and proposed a compromise, not add fuel to the fire and send a public letter. She is not working with you, and as long as that is the case you will not have a healthy resolution or relationship.

Tori, Dean and Kiddos
Just love watching your show. You have such a wonderful relationship. You have a BEAUTIFUL FAMILY! I have always been a fan of yours Tori since BH 90210. I was also a fan of many of the shows that your father created. I am very sorry that you and your mom don't see eye to eye, but don't give up hope, no matter what you will always be connected, and since the passing of your father she's your only living parent and life is short, you don't want to stop trying because you both know you love each other deeply.. I really hope things work out for you both. I just want to say before I GO that when I watch your show I always enjoy that half hour you create for your fans!

Hi, just a little tidbit of information my mother-in-law gave me about my stressful relationship with my parents. She said "Veronica, you just have to learn to accept the fact that if you were never able to please them as a child, you will probably never be able to please them as an adult". It hurt to hear this but my very supportive husband, I thank God for this man, helped me in accepting this very sad fact. The best one can do in these situations is to surround yourself with the people, family or not, who truely love and accept you.
I will admit that I still try to make contact with my family and I still get hurt. It's like a bad habit. You know it's bad for you, but it's hard to give up. I'm optimistic you'll be fine.

Tori, I think that you are a wonderful mother. You should be proud of yourself.

Dear Tori and Dean,
All daughters want a good relationship with their mothers. Unfoutunely your mother seems to be very toxic. She actually had the bald face nerve to blame you for your Dad's death. She's no saint rumor had it she was having an affair with that live in boyfriend of hers and that is what killed your father. While I can understand her reluctance to appear on tv if she was really worried about privacy. If Stella and Liam where my grandchildren you couldn't keep away. Come to think of it it would be easier to build a room for me if you were my daughter and you had my grandchildren. She loses creditablity with the fact she religiously courts the papparaazzi. Her real problem was that she couldn't control the mount of attention she would be getting or should I say not getting. While your Dad was alive she was the wife of a powerful tv producer now she is just a sad lonley old women who is jealous of everything and everyone. As sad as is appears Liam and Stella are missing nothing. You need to move on. You and the children are better off without her and her poison. Maybe when all her money is gone and no one is hanging on her any more she will relaize what she has truly lost. May God hold you and your husband and children in the plam of his hand. Barbara Rothwell

Congrats to the Guncles! My daughter had her commitment ceremony the end of May, they invited a few people, but no one showed up. My husband and I were there showing our love and support of her happiness and her sister was there as was Tam's family, but that was it. I felt so bad for them, I cried. I just want her to be loved and happy, which she is, but people get so damn hung up on political cir #&@% stantial crapfests topped with associative congealisms. I'm glad your ceremony was so wonderful. You are blessed to have your friends and families' love and support.

Tori: Your mom is forgetting one very important thing. She's the mom. No matter what you have done, she should stand by you, love you and support you. I believe she probably killed your father with her cold and killing personality.

OMG....the guncle ceremony was beautiful and very intimate. Congrats, Guncles and good luck with the adoption. Tori, cant wait for tomorrow's episode...if your mother does not accept your invite and show up to her grandughter's bday party...she doesnt deserve to apart of your family's life. If she truly wanted a relationship with you and your family she would take the opportunity as it came, public or private. Good luck....and know that you have friends and fans that support you!!!

I NEVER blog EVER! But I wanted to come on here and let yhou guys know what I think of your show. First off, your love is truely inspiring...you both love eachother so much and truely seem like best friends!! And second...as you know...cutest kids ever and you guys are great parents..good job! And finally, TORI you are HILARIOUS!!! It drives me crazy that no one, other than your people, give you credit for how funny and witty you are! I wish everyone would stop talking about drama and just say 'wow, this chick is fuuunnnnyyy'and enjoy good laughs! So you guys are great keep having a blast and good luck with everything in your future. PEACE

Tori: I'm sorry for Candy's hurtful letter. Please finally cut her out of your life for good! She does not deserve to have a relationship with you and if she treats you this badly how could you want your kids to have any contact with her either! I've been through this and I know it's hard but you need to do what is best for you and your family. Good luck to you and your family. I love your show. Thank you for letting us peer in the fish bowl!

Dear Tori,

I am saden about your relationship with your mother. I have experienced a similar situation with my mother-in-law with my husband. My father-in-law passed away about 6 years ago, and my husband was left with everything, including the stress of family problems and $$$$$. My mother-in-law didn't receive any $$ and either did his siblings. Sounds like favoritism. (Not really my husband is a great man, very caring, loving and always took care of his parents since he was 21.) However, his siblings where never there for his father or mother threw hard times, surgeries you name it. Matter of fact I haven't even met his sister for 13 years until she found out her father had passed. And only came around for $$. Shortly after finding out she wasn't left anything in the will. All Hell broke loose. Bring on the law suites (that were false.) My husband was BF and Business partners with his father. Just a little insite about my mother-in-law, she was very jealous of my husband because of the bond he had with his father. Sad! Right! I know. My mother-in-law never told my husband she loved him. Atleast as long as I've been around. Also never liked me, for no reason. Until my husband and I had money. She was nice as long as the money was there and given to her for shopping sprees. The money went fast when my husband felt obligated to take over her debt and the 12,000sq house.(For his mother to be happy.) Paying for everything under the sun for her. So he could just get "I love you" or just to get a few words "Thank you or Good Job" Sadly he never received that approval he always wanted. Shortly we did a private aution on our home in 2008 we sold it but my mother-in-law wouldn't sign off on it and we lost the deal and about 1.5m + we put into it to retore and finish the remodeling. She eventually left us to live with my husband sister because of the stress of not having alot of $$. (What stress did she have? Shopping! My husband and I had all the stress.) The daughter she hasn't seen or talked to in 23 years because as she put it a Spoiled B.... and another Bad word I won't respectfully say. Her daughter married an older man for $$ when she was in her early 20's had 3 kids and her husband divorced her a few years ago shes not a trophy wife anymore as our world puts it. Your mother will never change especially for the $$ you received. She still thinks it's hers. Sadly to say I wouldn't persue it. My mother-in-law has been gone for almost a year now and she hasn't called or sent my children anything. Because, MONEY is more important or should I say who ever has the $$ for her to be taken care of. What I've found in myself, my husband and childen are my family. My mother-in-love was always jealous of my children because they received things. She thought that the money should go to her not them. We gave her everything beyond everything it still wasn't enough, she wanted more. The money ran out after taking care of her and her debt. Then she abanded us like we never existed.

at first i thought to ask where all of the babies cloths go...for hand me downs...then i thought of the smut on fox this morning, and it came to me, that in this situation, i would contact yehuda berg, of the kabbalah centere...

well his mom, to be real.

i had a very similar situation, then i started to involve myself with learning what is all of this pain for...and there is a reason, sucks i know...but i had to pack up and run to israel just to escape the pain, but found my gift there, the husband, and now our twins liam, and yali.

we had met a couple of times before, but nothing to remember, i worked in the buiding.

this is a person to teach you alot, thank g-d for her, and the pain... trust me. embrace it.

take care of youre family, and give them the unconditional love, and youll see.

much love, and thought with you.

tania :)

I love your show, Tori, and I love that you are not afraid to just be who you are.
You are a strong beautiful woman with an absolutely amazing family of your own. I too have a very complicated relationship with my mom, and I strive each and every day to make sure that my relationship with my own daughter is %100000 better that mine and my mother's.
Candy will always be your mother, and you will always love her, but as long as you have done your part to reach out to her (regardless of what the outcome may be), then you can rest at night knowing that ultimately SHE is going to be the one to suffer the consequences of not reaching back for you and her grandchildren.
I just bought both of your books, and can't wait to get started on them. AND can't wait to see what you have in store next!

Tori & Dean i love your show! you show people how real life is! And i am a mother to a 9 month old and i am only 19 :( but u make the best of it! Your show has inspiried me to become something of myself and to not just sit around and waste me life! I really apperciate it<3

Tori and Dean I love your show! You guy's keep it so real. No one's life is perfect STAR or Not. I think it is hard not to have your own Mother in your life. But it is abviously something your Mother really dosen't want to work on...... Thank You for sharing your life with us.

Emily

Tori,
Just wanted to say I love your show!!! You are a great mother and will never be like your mom, and you should not worry about her anymore. You've given her ever chance to become part of her grandkids life and yours and she has just thrown it out the window. I think you need to just move on without her and I think your kids are better off not having her in their life. Keep your head up!!

Done . . you should be totally DONE with your mother now . . her scathing open letter to her "middle aged daughter" was the last straw. Do yourself and your children a favor and stay far away from her . . she is evil, evil, evil! The only good thing about this new letter is . . it truly reveals how sick she is and how the end of this relationship is totally her loss, not yours. She missed out on a great relationship with a wonderful daughter . . how great is it that the same thing WON'T happen to you! :-)

Tori,
I'm so sorry about your mom. I know it must hurt not to have family in your children's lives, but friends are sometimes better than family. And you have amazing friends who would do anything for you and your kids it seems, and it's their choice to be there! Blood is thicker than water, they say, but someone choosing to be in your life out of love not obligation will always seem to me the better of the two. I hope her crazy letter gives you the strength to move on and know that you did everything you could do. And maybe one day she'll realize that she messed up and could have been a part of your life. You are wonderful, don't ever think anything else!

Hi Tori,

I read the latest coments your mother posted on TMZ. Long story short. I agree with Dean, it's time to cut the cord. She does not deserve you & the kids. I know its easier said than done but she is treating you like a enemy not a daughter she gave birth to. Wishing you all the best !

Laurine

Tori,
It's unfortunate that your mom is such a b**tch. She acts like a spoiled rotten brat. You were so upset and really wanted to invite your mom to Stella's b-day and if she watched your show she would have seen that. She is so self absorbed that she can't even see your pain. You have to stop reaching out, she will just break your heart. She is just trying to get publicity for herself off of yours and Dean's hardwork. Too bad she doesn't know that we all have to work for what we have, it just isn't handed to us. She is a miserable old woman and always will be. Your children don't need that influence in their lives. They have Patsy.

Hi Guys!
Hey Tori- you are a sweetie, and your kids are adorable!! I know it's hard to think that your own mother is such a self centered mean dispicable person, but my dear, the sooner you face it, the better for you and your entire family unit. I feel I am not speaking out of turn because my own mother was exactly like yours! Even going so far as to tell me I was ugly on my prom night!(plus many other things-) That letter your "mom" wrote is just the kind of thing my mother would have done. Sweetie, you have a cute, hottie hubby, two totally awsome kids, and great friends. Do what I had to do, accept that she is never going to change. Make some of those friends your family, (Bill & Scout's moms would probably LOVE being asked to be your babies adopted
grandmas). Better, for your own emotional health, just don't have any more contact with her- she does not deserve to be a part of your lives when she is so openly nasty. Dean is so right about not having contact with her, I loved it when he said it was his job to protect you guys- you go Dean! I hope you take my advise- I wish I had broken ties with my mom sooner than I did.

Tori & Dean~LOVE YOU GUYS! First of all, I just got an "E" On-Line update to see where the "feud is back on". Something about your Mom's comment "middle-aged woman reality show". Seriously....your mother is completely jealous of you! Sounds like she has been. For starters, probably the relationship that you and your Father had and now that you are still in the public's eye, despite her not being (as much).

I understand where you are coming from, she is your Mom & always will be, that doesn't mean that you have to keep letting her break your heart. You are a great mother to your children, regardless of your relationship w/your mother and when your kids are older, they will see it (literally, you life is do #&@% ented, how could they not). My father does not so much have anything to do with me and/or my kids and it HURTS, no matter how old you are. I always want to keep trying. I keep getting the same results.

Again, you are an AMAZING Mom. Any negative comments on here, I would chalk up to being jealous. If they didn't like you to begin with, why would they be wasting their time visiting your web site.

You will never please everyone. No matter how good of a person you are, how much money you have, how popular you are, etc. Be the best that YOU can be. You are. You are a great person, a great wife (seriously...I don't know that I would have brought the bike back) and most of all, you are a GREAT mother.

Keep the show going!
Michelle from Missouri

I just wanted to leave a comment for Tori about her mother. You are so lucky you turned out the way you are. You had to of gotten everything from your father. I know she is your mother and you have a certain bond with her, but, you have been hurt enough by her and you need to go on with your life with everyone around you that loves you! For her to only contact you through the press is spineless of her! After I saw that her and Chelsea are good friends and do nothing but dog you you are better off without both of them!
May your life be blessed! And enjoy that beautiful family of yours!!

does ne 1 no wht brand of sippy cups that liam uses in the show where hes going to preschool and its his 1st day

Congrats Guncles! Your vows were beautiful and I was crying my eyes out. Tori and Dean, I love your show and the children are adorable. I can't understand how a mother would treat her daughter the way Candi has. I had a very loving mom and thank God every day for the time I had with her as she died 4 years ago. I can't tell you to just walk away cause I know it must hurt a lot but just remember that a mom is not just who gave birth to you but a person who loves and accepts you all the time no matter what. It looks to me like your nanny is that person. Keep up the great shows.

Hello Tori
Just wanted to say screw your Mom and her stupid letters. She just showed the type of person she is and why you have chosen not to have contact with her. How dare she judge your life when she gives you no interest or support.
You are living your best life for you and your family - keep going Tori - you rock!

Hi Tori & Dean!

I just wanted to say how much I enjoy the show and hope you are doing well. Tori, I too haven't always had the best relationship with my mom and I cut ties with her for almost a year until she realized that I wasn't going to tolerate the way she treated me. I am so thankful we were able to reconcile before my oldest son was born because Mom passed away when he was 7 months old. I will always wish I didn't have to miss that year with her but standing up for myself was the best thing I could have ever done for both of us. Don't worry what everyone else thinks, this is your life and you have to do what's best for you and your family. You are surrounded by wonderful people you consider family and sometimes that is better than the family we are born into.

Teresa

Exactly who needs to get a life anonymouse? yes, you're a mouse because you won't even use your own name. So who is living through someone else's life? Idiot. And who cares who they love? how can you raise a normal child & show them what is normal when you have 2 men kissing and hugging all over each other and being sick? How do you explain that when they get old enough to ask questions? "Oh mom, I saw 2 men kissing, why?" Do you tell them that is normal? Yuck. And so I critisize them. They think they're so loved and the greatest ever on the earth. Just wanted them to know not everyone thinks every little thing they do is "right" or "cute". Like Jon & Kate, soon we'll be reading about their relationship downfall. And I don't watch the show. I stopped after the first few times I heard Tori whining non stop about not having enough family time, then saying "OH, wait, I have to finish the next chapter in my book". Get serious.

Dear Tori,

Just wanted to leave a note thanking you for being so kind in Malibu yesterday 7/26/2009, and taking a picture with my lovely daughter Ruby eventhough you were wearing a helmet and you did not think your face was showing. You are a gem. One kind advise to you as a mom, don't sweat the small stuff and make up with your mom. Life is too short. You will be rewarded by many other ways.

Love,
Ruby's mom Angela

As a mother of 3, with issues with my mom as well, I commend you on the way you are handling your mom. I go through the same with my mom. The way I see it is like this, if she truly loves your children for the sheer fact that they are her grandchildren, she will use every opportunity she can to see them. It looks to me that she isn't connected to them emotionally at all, therefore it does not bother her to not see them. I hope that things will turn around for the kids sake, if not keep on loving your babies and husband, pay no attention to the rest.

Hate your show. I used to like it when you seemed real. Now all you do is whine and complain and work. I've heard you say 50 times you are work a holic. You've also said you Dad rarely spent time with you. So why would you want to work non stop and spend so little time with your kids? And Deano. Man, you are such a U S E R. If Tori wasn't who she is you'd be w/someone else. And Tori, watch out. He cheated on his wife before, you're his wife now. How long do you think it will be before he runs around behind your back? No wonder you are so jealous of everything he wants to do. You know in your heart he wants out of the house to get away from you. Once a cheat, always a cheat. And you're an idiot for letting your kids around your weirdo gay friends. Yuck. Shame on you!!

Tori, I believe you are an amazing person, wife and mother. But as a Mother, I have learned many things, including it takes 2 to tango...there are always 2 sides to every story. I disagree with your mother and her attitude towards you. I have a mother that loves me very much, but she doesn't like me at all. We are 2 very different people. Sometimes things can get very difficult between us. Now, she is elderly and in ill health and needs to live with someone for care. My kids (now 36 and 35, grown, married and someone else's problem...LOL!) tell me all time how amazed they are that I can care for someone that treates me badly. I was brought up to honor my parents, and I will continue to do so, even if they are screaming bad things at me.
There is one thing I want you to remember... Kids learn what you SHOW them, NOT what you TELL them. You just keep on doing what you're doing, be true to yourself and things will find a way of working out the way they're suppose to work out.

Many Blessings, Marie

TORI!!!! I am going to make this short and simple. As a mother of three 9,6,and 2. I am an army wife and I think you are doing a great job! Here's the thing: DON'T LET YOUR MOTHER RUIN WHAT YOU HAVE, SHE IS HATEFUL AND MEAN SPIRITED AND KNOW THIS, I HAVE A MOTHER THE SAME WAY YOU DO, SHE WAS NEVER THERE AND NOT A LOVING PARENT TO SAY THE LEAST, YOU ARE DOING GREAT AND KEEP YOUR HEAD UP, LIAM AND STELLA ARE BEAUTIFUL AND YOUR HUSBAND IS A GOOD MAN, DON'T LET HER TAKE THAT AWAY!!!

Tori, I am always so moved by your show, and I am glad it's on. Your family has so much of what is good and wonderful in the world, not money or fame, but gratitude and love. You and Dean are thoughtful and active parents and it shows in your children. who are more than adorable.
This latest with your mother is just horrible for you. I'm sorry you have to go through this, and so publicly. As a viewer and fan, I ache for you. I know the heartbreak, and sadly it's eventual outcome. Honey, you can't create a loving mother and Grandmother by wishing it was so. Please don't let her poison spread to your family and friends, or take up one more moment of your time. sadly, Dean is right about your mother. He will be there to hold you and walk with you though this and everything else.
Your a strong, beautiful woman and a little piece of joy walking around in the world.

I would think that Candy Spelling would jump at ANY chance to meet her grandaughter! Who cares if cameras are there, since when did she become camera shy?
The chance to hold that baby in her arms for the first time should outweigh anything else!
This could have been the opening to repair the relationship with her daughter and instead she slammed the door shut!!
Shame on her!!

I think that you reaching out to your mother was just GREAT! Shame on her for not doing the same for the grandkids. I can tell from experiences of my own. I have a daughter and grandson, we had a falling out over money,and I"ve not seen my grandson since last year,exactly a year August 4th on my birthday. I dont have a address for them, or a phone number. God how l miss them! I recently had a stroke and could have been consoled by their present. But that did not happen. Life is to short to hold grudges. Your mom is the one that is missing out.

TORI, DEAN, AND FAMILY!!!
I am a college student and my roomates and I have dedicated a night to your show. We sip wine and loveeeee you guys... LOVE MONKEY SO MUCH. don't listen to the critics!!!!

Tori, Dean, Liam, & Stella,

I watch your reality show every week. My son is autistic and he also loves your show, esp. with all the cool things you do as a family. (i.e., he loves the parties, etc).
Tori, i can relate to you on many levels as my family has over years financially taken advantage of me and my 2 kids, they refuse to help us and do all to hurt me.
you are a good person and mom. i hope one day i can find someone as you and dean have found each other and with your children, you have a beautiful family!!
I love your reality show and i wish i could go to book signings/ meet you but due to son, he is unable to fly, due to fears and his heart disability as well.
We love ya and your family, try to see your mom is loseing as she is makeing her choices to not meet your beautiful daughter and see Liam..... your children have much love, real love, and you and Dean are great parents. love , christine, fl.

To Candy and Tori:

From One Mother to Another... The passing of Time can be a thief. The passing of Time can be
a friend. Pride goeth before a fall. When ONE of you is left alone to roam the earth without the other; (and it will happen
in 'time') how important will this lost time be to you? I suggest it will cost you a sum that neither of you can afford.
Act Blessed because you are blessed. Make time your friend NOW, whatever the cost. You can afford it now.

The cost? Forgiveness. In the measurement of what you have to lose vs. what you have to gain is priceless.
Treat it as such. Forgiveness is not as sweet or rewarding when done by someone's dying bedside.

Sincere regards from someone who continues to pay the price,

My2CentsWorth

To the Gungles,
As a women in her thirties, whom struggled years to conceive a child due to infertility, I understand the love, commitment and work you went through to get married and now the ultimate..a journey to make your family complete by adopting a child. Although, my family went through the daunting task of attempting to adopt a baby of our own.......after many years we finally conceived. I want to say, I admire all work you are going through. I am now on the other side, due to a medical condition, I have to now give my child up for adoption. The due date is Christmas and I could only hope that my little one would be lucky enough to have two wonderful parents such as yourself. May you be blessed with baby of your dreams. I can only dream that the little Christmas present in my belly may be joined in love to the right family. Please never give up hope, for when you hold your baby in your arms, know that all the time, work and energy we there to give you exact child you were waiting for. Cheers to your wedding, and may the right woman come in your life to give you your present.

CONGRATZ YOU TWO.SAW THE WEDDING WITH TEARS IN MY EYES!! IT WAS SO MOVING!!! HOPE YOU TWO HAVE MANY MORE RICH MOMENTS WITH EVERY NEW YEAR THAT PASSES FOR YOU BOTH.......GEORJEAN

Tori,

I was just on TMZ and saw your mother's letter to you. I am so sorry you have to deal with the continuous, selfish and attention-hogging drama. What kind of woman can call herself a grandmother and claim grandkids when she never even makes time to see them? Shame on her for not growing up and making an effort. Shame on her for using inappropriate public forums to excuse her absence from your children's lives. You guys will continue to give love to your kids and your support system full of friends will also. It's hard and sad, but you will probably have to move on in life without her.

Dear Tori,

I am writing this to so that you know that you are a wonderful mom! Live each day within the joy of your children and hisband! I know it hurts so very deeply, all the stuff with your mother and all, she should be that... a mom and obviously she isn't. Drama is just that, drama,so live your guys' lives, drop the mom and if and when she decides to grow up, let her come to you, if she doesn't you can at least say that you did not allow her drama affect your children, when the kids are older, and they ask about her, tell them that when they are older you'll explain, but that for now that she loves them in her own distant way. Take care of yourselves, and know that you guys are on the right path and that you are doing right by your babies! Peace and love my friends,

Tori and Dean,

I love your show! I watch it regularly with my daughter. I like the fact that both of you are so down to earth and normal. The kids are absolutely adorable and I like watching them grow. I feel bad that Candy has beat Tori down so much but ya know what?...Tori maybe Dean is right and you should cut the ties. In the end she may hurt your children the way she hurt you. You have surrounded yourself with good loving people so take that and be happy. Dean..your a good guy, keep being good to her and those kids. May you all have a blessed day.

And to the Guncles....Beautiful ceremony! I'm so happy for the both of you. I can't wait til my nephew and his partner do the same thing :) Best of luck always!

Oh how funny my 15 year old son just had to show me how to blog...All I wished to say was, after watching your show this evening, that you cannot convince someone of having a relationship with you. Time has it's toll on all,maybe now,maybe later, but it needs to be up to them when to mend the line of communication. Little starts sometimes end up to be big wins and carries alot less battle scars. Good luck to you and your family, and extended also,sometimes that's what gets you thru.

T-In Ohio

I'm so sorry Tori that your mom has decided to stay away from Stella's big birthday bash. You are the one to reach out to her, and she is the one who turned the offer down. You have done your best--a true loving mother and grandmother would want to be there for their grandchild's first birthday, if given that chance, and you gave it to her. You have every reason to be upset, but you also can be proud of your efforts for reaching out.

Dear.
T.d.
I love your show ....when u r coming to akron.oh I would love to meet you guys...I never meet a bigtime person. Well maybe one day just maybe...bye

I think you give your children too much sugar. Liam shouldn't be bribed with cookies. No wonder he's always running around.

I just want to TMZ.com to see that the lastest was on the Michael Jackosn case and instead, I saw that your Mother/Candy has put out this long letter to you on their website. I believe that your family does not need to be around that type of "drama" that Candy is creating for herself and everyone around her. It's Candy choice, if she wants to be grandmother or not and there is nothing you can do but hope & pray she grows-up one day soon. I have the same problem with my mother and it's better for the child to be away from these type of problems.

Congrats Guncles on your ceremony & life together! Such a beautiful wedding Tori threw! It looked like such a nice family weekend & I have to say I'm a bit jealous!

Best,

Paula Carlton

Tori and Dean you guy's are great. Tori you are a great Mom don't even get wrapped up in the Mom stuff..keep doing the great job.

I love your show. My daughter and I make it a point to watch it together. I just wanted to let you know that you are an awesome mom. I had a terrible mother. She passed away last year and we are all so much happier now. Don't let Candy spoil your life. She is just a very evil person who is jealous of your relationship with your husband and children. It is hard to not get the love from your mother, I know from experience. You are a better person. You are a very strong mom. Hang in there. Your children love you and they know that you are their mom and you love them to death.

Hi Tori, Dean, Liam & Stella!
Just wanted to say that I LOVE the show!!! You are such down to earth people and I love that about you both. PLEASE, please, please do not let the curse of the couples on reality shows affect your marriage. I belive you were meant to be together, which is funny, cause I've never met either of you.
I'm so sorry to see what your mother has done to you, but keep strong for Liam & Stella and she will regret not being in their lives.
Love the show, Love you both!!!!
Keep filimg the show, I don't know what I'd do w/o it : )
Love,
Stephanie B. in WI

PS
Congrats Guncles & Hi to Patsy, Mehran, & Suzanne

Hello to Tori & Dean & all the "family" you have around you. I realize you've gotten from so many I see on your blog, but wanted to add my almost 60 years! Can't believe I've been struggling all that long - wow! OK, here's mine: I learned especially from my cousin whose marriage is just about the only one that I can see that has been as good as what you guys share - it's amazing to wath you too "love" each other day by day and working things out ....it's so unusual these days especially for celebs. Your Dad must have been so proud of you! Anyway I learned from her because she tried for YEARS to try to make peace with her in-laws and finally learned they were just toxic and quit trying. She states what she needs too and hangs up if "it" starts. Just a suggestion - I would send her a clip from the many times youve stated she is welcomed, even wanted to spend time with the kids - make sure one way or the other that she has actually "heard" - then let the press know that and that the topic is off limits - there is so much that is so beautiful in your lives that others need to see and hear about other than your weight & your Mom. You've done all you can do sweet lady. Not only are you beautiful on the outside but the inside, you are humble which is rare for kids of celebs and now that you are one yourself. You are funny, giving, a great wife and Mom. Others could learn that from you! I know you've heard this too, but, out of all the so called reality shows out there, I can't wait for yours to come on. I've been on disability for so long, trying to get stronger so I can get back to work so that my 62 yr old policeman husband can get "off the street" (ha).

May God muchly enrich and bless you and your family. I know it's hard, but I pray that you'll be able to make one final statement to your Mom and pray during those times it tries to rob you of your peace.....it'lll eventually ease up!

BTY, I can't believe how busy you stay I couldn't keep up with you and yet look how much you put into your real life . I'm glad you have Patsy, I pray for her too, that she'll get healthier and you'll have her in your life for many, many years.
PLEASE don't stop you're show.

God bless from a "grandma" fan for the 1st time in my life. never put this kind of time to send a blog to any celeb! You guys are the REAL thing - thank you for sharing your lives with us!

I absolutely LOVE Tori and her family and friends. I feel like I can relate to her on so many levels. My heart cries out with her when she talks about her relationship with her mom because I dont any connection with my mom either. Her connection with the gay community is amazing and wonderful. Being in a loving, happy 11yr lesbian relationship all I want is for everyone to be happy to. I wish her and family all the best and eternal love. I want the same for the Guncles to. Dean You rock!! Liam and Stella the cutiest kids ever!!

It is nice to see how you have grown into a women and mother. (A great mother)After reading both your books I feel your pain and frustration with the relationship with your own Mother. I felt compelled to write...all I can say is I am the youngest of 12 kids so when my parents got to me I felt they were tired and worn out. For years I blamed myself and then one day..I just decided to forgive them and believe my parents did the best job they could. It gave me a since of relief..also I noticed that when I changed the way I was in the situation..it totally threw the others off..they couldn't react the same way as they had...it was a slow but positive process of change. I understand she is your mom, your blood, but YOU are a Good person, a good mom, continue to believe in yourself, your family and your wonderful friends. Your mom will either come around or she will truely pass on the opportunity of a lifetime with her grandchildren. The important piece is that you are ok..you know the book, I'm ok, you're ok...LOL. Cheers and don't let your mother bring you down, you are better than that, stand tall, be proud! I know this probably doesn't ease the internal pain you feel, if you need to write a ling letter (not an email) to your mom..use I statements and tell her how you feel..not through the media..make the change, take the first step at least you can be at peace knowing you truely tried.

Tori and Dean..U GUYS ROCK... Does Dean have a brother ? DEAN IS HOT HOT HOT

Tori, Dean & kids,
i just wanted to let you know that it is very hard for me to find a show that actually hooks me and keeps me wanting to watch more, and i have never enjoyed watching a family grow and just have a great family and everyday flaws and all! you all are an awesome family and you and dean would not be the great ,awesome parents and husband and wife without each other and you all inspire me and the family i would like to have with my husband one day! thanks always Christopher m. Leonard

Tori just wanted to let you know that your family is beautiful. I also wanted to express that i my self have not spoken to my father in 12 yrs. our relationship was so stressful that i decided to just let go i did tell him that part of me loved him and that i forgave him but i just did not need him in my life nor my childrens life. I do feel at peace and i no longer feel that i need to be pleasing to him anymore.

take care and my God bless you all always.

Congrats to the "Guncles" Bill and Scout! You had me crying my face off! I really enjoy watching you guys! And Tori did an fantastic job on your ceremony too!

Shay

Tori...loved you on the Today show!! You were the only reason that I watched it. Kathie Lee Gifford was so rude to you, but thought it was funny when you suggested that people could use her cd as a gum holder. LOL!! She had it coming. You look stunning!! I love your style, and you look absolutely amazing. Don't lose any more weight, you are perfect right now. Please share your diet secrets with us. I'd love to see a book on diet and fashion tips. Not the typical canned tips, but the real ones. Can't wait to see the next season of your show. You are such a genuine and fun person...an inspiration to all of us moms! Work things out with your Mom, you won't regret it. Just keep that out of the media. It's no one's business, and will only hurt you in the long run.

To Bill and Scout, Congrats. You two are the most kind and gentle people that I have enjoyed watching every week.
I just finished reading Mommywood and when I got to the part where Tori and Dean ask you two to be Liam and Stella guardian, in case something happens and than Bill talks about having no money but would fight for these kids made me cry, and I don't even have children.
Best of luck to everyone on the show and I can't wait to see the lucky child that Bill and Scout adopt, that is going to be one lucky child.

I just wanted to say how much you and your family have touched me. I know its kinda silly, only seeing you on your show, but you are an amazing mom and wife. I'm stay at home mom of 2 beautiful girls, and as you know, its not always easy, but somehow we always get everything done. Do you ever get to colorado? unfortunately I was prego for your book signing tour and would love it if i could meet you and get the copies I have signed. I know that you are a busy wife and mother and actress and with every thing you do your time is limited, but I look forward to hearing from you.
Katie

Tori, Dean, Liam, and Stella,

I think you have a beautiful family, and if your mother can't see that that then it's her loss not yours. I am a big fan of yours and watch your show faithfully every week. I think you are a wonderful mother mother to your two children, and they couldn't ask for a better one. Good luck in all you and Dean and the family does; also, for allowing us to get a window into your life, and what it is really like. I have both your books, and I love them.

Love,

Stacy

Tori, I love watching the show. I am a grandmother of 3 and another on the way. My heart aches so much to see you cry for what should come natural for a grandmother the absolute unconditional love not only for her children but grandchildren. You are absolutely a wonderful mom and wife. I love Dean who is a great dad and husband. You turned out to be a loving young woman so sweet and giving. At times when your sad I just want to call you and confort you which your mom should be there for. But their is one thing you can say your mom did right was to have a wonderful, talented, beautiful, loving daughter as you. If I was in your mothers shoes I would be so proud to call you my daughter. I will keep you and your family in prayer!

Christine

Tori, Dean, Liam and Stella
Love the show, Your children are beautiful. Tori, you are so down to earth and the love you have for your children pours out of you. I look forward to purchasing your book and I hope you tour to Michigan for a book signing. Keep your chin up girl, I'm sure you mom watches every show and can see what a great mom you really are. It's sad to see you upset about your mom....I know how proud you are of your kids and just want your mom to share in the memories. Neverless, you continue your lifes journey, because you are definately on the right track. PS Dean your great too. I love how much love you show Tori and the kids. Every girl should be so lucky.

Tori & Dean - you are SUPER! You are great parents, friends, and people. I would be proud to be your kids "Grandma" until your mother comes to her senses. I have four grandchildren and can't get enough of them. Your family is so very special and I LOVE your books and your show. Keep up the great work and don't let the "strangers" get you down. You both are AMAZING!

Tori,
I just want to say that I hope things work out between you and your mom.
Thanks for a great show!
Kim

Congratulations, Scout and Bill!

Scout and Bill, Love when you two are on the show....Congrats on being committed to one another.. I wish you both the best..

Tori, I understand how you feel about the relationship with your mother. I, too, have a very strained relationship with my mother. I am 38, she is 81. You just don't want to believe that your mother is capable of doing and saying the things that she does. But, I think we believe that family is to be a loving, trusting relationship, and when it's not, it is devastating. So, we have to lean on the ones that we love and love us in return. Sometimes, family is who we choose, not what we are born in to.

Tori and Dean

I'm so hooked on your show. I DVR everyone and watch it all the time. You are an awesome couple. It's so nice to see a star couple together and that really love each other.

You are both so entertaining. I can't miss an episode.

Tori, I love your books. I bought both of them and I can't put them down.

Tori, chin up about your mom. She will come around. Just remember you have Dean and the kids.

Keep up the great work! Dean you rock!

Penny

Tori and Dean,
I love watching your show, Your kids are amazing and beautiful. You can tell the love that you 2 have goes very deep. Tori i know it's hard to support Dean on his racing cause your scared what might happen, but you do have to let him live his dreams. I know this cause my son raced flattrack motorcycles at 15 years old, and got in a bad wreck had to be rushed to the hospital and the Dr. told him he should never race again not once did I tell him he couldn't race again. It's scary I know ex. being a mother, you know how we are.I look foward to watching your show every week.
Take Care

Well Tori, be proud of yourself.. Your a Great Mother to your kids..!!! Your Mother can't say that!! & I am sure that you are also a Great Step- Mom to Jack also !!!.. It shows that you & Dean really Love each other !!! & I hope you 2 always have that Love !!!! I can tell that your 2 kids are going to be some characters growing-up, they already have Funny personalities !!!! If your Mom didn't come to Stellas 1st Birthday party, than give up on her, she is a waste of time & energy then !!! Maybe she was too Busy Playing the SLOT Machines again !!!.. But please, don't get pregnant again so soon.. Give herself a break for awhile...

Tori, after seeing your mom give chelsea handler a tour? Well, I've always hoped you'd be able to reconcile with your mother, but now? I am completely convinced that ANY relationship with her would be TOXIC with a capital T. She doesn't deserve you. She is the sickest woman I've ever seen and her trouble with you stems from a deep, DEEP rooted jealousy issue. Hers, not yours. Move on, be grateful for your life, know that you tried but the pathology of your mother's issues make it impossible to maintain ANY relationship with her at all!!

Congratulations on all your successes! I am also a mother of two, a wife and a teacher but when I have a few minutes to spare I really enjoy watching your show. It seems that Tori and Dean are very commited to their children and their marriage. Although Tori has not had a close relationship with her own mother she is doing a wonderful job herself. She obviously puts her family and friends first which is a wonderful selfless gesture that not many people are capable of these days. We all get caught up in our own personal goals to achieve success and wealth, but at the end of the day you have to realize none of that really matters as much as seeing your baby take its first step or your toddler learning how to "try" and dress themselves or remembering to tell your kids and husband that you love them before bedtime. It is just such a joy to see a truly "happily ever after" family. You guys are great!

hello tori, dean, liam, and stella! i just love watching your show! me and my husband just had our first baby on fathers day and just learning how to do things. i DVR yours shows so when i'm up feeding our little baby boy i can watch them and just laugh and aww. you guys are so cute together and i wish you the best of luck. and tori my husband use to race in dirt track racing so i know how you feel when dean races. it'll be okay, he has a guardian angel with him, thats what my grandma use to say to me. and i wish liam and stella's guncles the best of luck with each other!!

hello tori and dean , i just let you know that i love watching your show .....i think your the sweetest person i ve ever seen anyway ihope you read this i know ur busy so goodluck love maria

Tori & Dean,

You guys seem truly happily married which is a feat in itself in this day and age..especially in Hollywood. I wish years and years of happiness and joy. Do not work so much that you drift apart or lose sight of your beautiful children growing up. Tori, I have read your first book and will by buying your second book. I also love your jewelry and think it is fabulous that you wear it on your show! You seem to be an amazing person. Thank you for sharing your lives with us...keep the love and good times rolling.

first of all-congratulations to the guncles. I was also wondering curiously enough-why do they refer to you as "guncles?? Just wondering :-) Way to go and I wish you both every bit of happiness guncles-way to go :-)

Renate

ps Tori and DEan are so lucky to have you both.

I love the show and have been a big fan of Tori for a long time! Ya'll are truly blessed and have two beautiful children! Thank you so much for sharing everything with us and may God bless you in every part of your lives!
Guncles, congratulations and the ceremony was beautiful. Tori and all the others did a great job! God will bless you with a wonderful child, just hang in there!
With Love,
Jennifer Kilgore

Hi Dean & Tori,

I'm truly impressed by the love you have for each other and your friends. And I can honestly say I've never seen better parents.

One thing does bother me a little. Please stop calling Stella "Momma". I realize you don't mean anything by it & I may be tne only one, but I find it a little creepy.

Scout and Bill... you guys are GREAT. Congrats to the both of you. Much love and never stop sharing your love with others....

Hey there guys!

I just want to say Congratulations!!! your Commitment ceremony was beautiful and believe me when I say that in the future and hopefully the near future California will be able to accept Same Sex Marriage along with all equal rights. You guys are amazing and i can't wait until you guys have a child of your own. Congrats to the two most awesomest Guncles on the Face of the Galaxy!

Guncles, You can watch my kids any time. You both are great and I know you will make wonderfull parents!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good Luck don't lose faith this will happen for you both.

Hi Guncles - being an adoptive mommy myself, I can honestly say it has been the most wonderful thing I have ever done. I am sure by now, you are in the midst of paperwork craziness. It will be difficult at times, I know, but through it all just remember that it is beyond worth it. Just hang in there. I know I sound like a cliche', but the baby that is meant to be yours will most surely find you. I can't wait to hear more about your journey.
Fondly, Danielle

Love the show!
I would love to know the name of the beautiful color in Tori's bedroom.

Rachel

Tori I think you are a beautiful person on the inside and I hope that your mom stops hurting you I want you know that I understand how you feel because I don't have my dad around and that's because he hurts my feelings when he is apart of my life so I gave up and it sucks there are times when I miss him but there's too much heartache there but on a better note you did such a great job planning the Guncles commitment ceremony I wish them a lifetime of happiness...

"Guncles",

It was an absolutely amazing ceremony! The colors that Tori picked were awesome, they made you guys look great! I'm glad you two were able to enjoy such a wonderful day with those that were close to you. Congratulations...looking forward to the adoption!

Yours truly,
Jenny

Dear Bill & Scout,
Best wishes for the years ahead. You are so lucky to be surrounded by family & friends, who love you. I watched the episode about your special day, and it looked superb! Tori has an exquisite taste. The decor was simple, yet very elegant. Congratulations guys and good luck during the adoption process.
Love,
Anne

Hey Guncles!! I always love to read your blogs. It was an amazing event and tori is definitely a great party planner. i hope that the adoption plans are going well. you two are in my prayers. i hope that maybe oxygen will give you guys a show too. Lord know it will have ratings out the butty....lol. congrats again. Muah!!! xoxo

I can't wait for you guys to have a baby! You are gonna be great dads!

The ceremony was beautiful and you guys were so sweet! It's always a pleasure to peek into your lives on the show. I can't wait to see if you find a birth mom for your baby, although I think there are only a few weeks of the show left so wondering what is going to happen.

Best Wishes to you guys!!!!

Chrissy Rothstein

Congratulations! Good luck with everything and most of all best wishes on finding a child to share your life with.

The Ceremony was so beautiful!!! Congradulation guys!!! I can't wait for you guys to adopt.. ur going to make wonderful parents!!

Dear Tori and Dean:
Love your show, just shows how normal your family is. Great job on the commitment ceremory.
Scout and Bill best wishes and happy endings.

Beth

Hi Tori and Dean-

I just want to say I love your show and think you are such a wonderful family.

I wanted to tell you Tori that I just read your Mommywood book and really enjoyed it. I also wanted to tell you that I really feel that I have a lot in common with you. I am about your age and am estranged from my mother, and have two children. Reading parts of the book blew me away because my mother acted the same way. I wish you the best and hope you can have that relationship back.

Thank you for bringing your family into the rest of our lives. It's such a refreshing change from some of the other reality families.

You rock Dean, Tori, Liam and Stella!!!

Hi guys!
Wow this weeks episode was so sweet. I'm so glad you guys had a wonderful ceremony to celebrate your love for eachother. It sends the best message out there that it doesn't matter who you are and love is love and no one can take that away from you! How's your search for a birthmom going? Have you had any luck? I would so be a birth mom for you guys! I think anyone would do it in a heartbeat for you two. Congrats and good luck!

Xoxo
Jenny

Wow, Scout! Just found out that I know your mom, Jackie B! She's great and so are the Guncles! So happy for you, Love and Luck Always!

Hey guys! I've been watching every repeat of the show since it aired on Tuesday night! If I'm flipping through channels & catch it, I stop & watch just to cry & cry again over the ceremony. Your love is extremely powerful. Something that we all hope for in life. Here's to your life together! Hopefully we'll get to see lots more with you guys with the adoption process. I find that very interesting to learn as I watch.

Hi Guncles,
I just wanted to congratulate you both! It was a beautiful ceremony!
Good luck and I hope you both continue to have this amazing life together FOREVER! Good luck on the adoption as well! I am sure you will be great parents.

Love you both
Leandra

How's the married couple doing??
The ceremony was so beautiful. Amazed at Tori's many talents. I'm sort of new to all this techy stuff, but think it's great that we can interact with you guys & the rest of the cast. Can't believe that next week is the season finally, what a bummer! Hope you will be coming back for another season. Any news in that dept.???
Again congrats to you both. Have to go clean some shrimp for 2 nites dinner.
Best,
Pauline

I love your show and I hope you continue with the program. You have a wonderful family. If I had one wish it would be to meet you and your wonderful family. I love your book. I will be buying your new one. If your mother doesn't want to be in your life she will be missing out on a lot. I don't think anyone has the most wonderful husband as you do. I love how your family is so loving keep it up. I watch your show every week and won't miss it. You inspire me a lot. Thank You for sharing your life with all of us. I love the Gunlces they are wonderful people and I hope they get to adopt a child. Patsy is a wonderful person and I admire that she is going to lose weight it's a big step. Good Luck Patsy. We love you and your family.

omg hi not hit so sorry made so many errors but u get the drift lollol bye again

I absolutely love you guys, think you are the sweetest things next to triple fudge brownies and am so happy for your commitment ceremony. Don't let the judgement of the courts bring you down, nothing can stop true love....and we're all waiting to see the adorable new addition to your family....can't wait! All the love and luck in the world are wished upon you!

I have to get this off my chest. For years I have really straddled the fence on gay marriage. watching Bill and Scout in their commitment ceremony really touched me deeply. I have been married 20 years and cannot imagine someone telling us that we could not be married legally. Seeing the love Bill and Scout have toward each other touches me. My views have changed drastically.

I love you guys, I want to wish you the best of everything in your new life together. Tory is so lucky to have the both of you.

Joanne

I just wanted to let you know I think you are a wonderful mother. Your children are just beautiful I'll adopt you in a second. Your mother doesn't know what she is missing. I have a 4 year old grand daughter, I don't know what I did before her, she is just wonderful. Every woman should know the blessings of grand children. You do what is in your heart to do and let the Lord take care of the rest.

Joanne

Dear Bill and Scout,
I thought the weekend was awesome. I was really glad to hear that you would be doing it in front of the cameras. The ceremony was beautiful. You can tell you guys totally love each other. It was great that Tori got to plan another event, we all know that's her thing. It was also nice to see Dean get involved. So wonderful to have close friends that have become your family. The funniest and smartest thing was when Billy told Liam he had candy so he would bring the rings forward. That was the best! Wish you guys lots of luck.
Allyson

Hi Tori
I hope very much that you will read my comment.
I am an Israeli Jewish mom. I am following your relationship with your mom for long long time. I have to be honest with you I am very disappointed of you. you lost your father without the chance to say goodbye and you will have to live with this for the rest of your life. But you are lucky you still have your mom don't let the years go by without making peace with her. no mater haw upset you are, she is still your mom, the only mom that you will ever have in your life. Remember you can't replace parent. With all do "respect" to your husband don't let him on national television make a disrespectful comment abut her. You don't need his "blessing" or his approval to have relationship with your mom. One day your beautiful kids will watch the show when they will be older, can you imaging yourself on national television your husband say that he cut the cord with his father? What a wonderful example it is.
Please Tori, do the right thing.
etti

Hello,
I just wanted to say how adorable your family is...one day i hope to be as great of a mother as you are. Although the public only sees a portion of your lives it is easy to see the love that you share in your family. Also the commitment ceremony
was gorgeous and the vows made me tear up...it was beautiful.

-Courtney

Dean & Tori,
I love your show and have been watching Tori since her beginnings on the original 90210. Dean you are an awesome actor keep up the great work. You have a beautiful family and although I am a grandmother now of four myself I relate with Dean on the Tattoo issue that is also how I express my feelings. Grandchildren are the best thing ever put on earth, and it is really to bad when people miss out on that. i would not miss it for the world. Blessings Lorri from Oregon

Hi Tori,

I started taping your show so I could see the commercial for DYAO, then started watching. You and your family are great. I really think you are so likable and I have to say I never miss an episode. It appears that Hollywood is so much smoke and mirror but it seems once it has all cleared, there shines an authentic soul. I realized recently that with good that happens in your life, often the negative occurs. Getting a snapshot of your life each week show me that we all struggle.. However it the simple thing in life that mean so much to us. Keep, keeping it real.

Ruben

I just want to say Thank You to Tori and Dean for showing us how celebrities have to live. And, I'm so unbelievably impressed at how you both work so hard at your relationship by keeping the surprises along the way, continuing to respect and admire each other. You two are so much fun to watch, to listen to, and thank you for letting us be a part of your life. Then, Tori - please let me say - I have struggled my entire life trying to have some sort of relationship with my father. At age 54 I've finally come to the realization that I am much better off cutting the ties. It was not easy by any stretch of the imagination, but well worth allowing myself to finally be free. Your decision will not be easy, but know that if you decide to cut the ties, it will be because you have a family you've created - one with loving people and fabulous support. And you are never alone. You have an amazing husband, many good friends, and a world of fans all loving you! I wish you all the best.

Bill and Scout - Congratulations! thank you so much for letting us be a part of your special day, and may you have many happy years together!

I so look forward to your show each week, and I envy the love you share, Tori and Dean, with each other, your children, and your friends. Thank you , thank you, for allowing us to be a part of your life.

I have been watching for the last few seasons and love it. I've been wondering for a while if Scout has any relatives who come from the New Madrid, Mo area. Masterson is my maiden name and Scout looks a lot like some of my relatives. I grew up in Kasnsas but traveled to St Louis and New Madrid every summer. Just interested in comparing family histories if there is any connection. Thanks.

Hi,
I think it is stupid that they wont let you get married your not any different from anyone else. well besides the fact your gay which is totally fine. You love each other has much has as much has a straight couple does. I encourage gay marrage and hopefully one day there will be. I think its beautiful and sweet your going to adopt to have your own family.
xoxoxoxoxo,Tanya

I am probably going to get email about not following the blog. Tori, I just really wanted to get in touch with you. Your comment about how do you "shut if off" captured me. My mom and twin were murdered by my older brother and I "grew up" with my dad for a year befoee he "betrayed me". I am in the process of writing a book. I have no fame, I am lonely girl from FL just trying to tell people that bad things happen to good people. Do you have thoughts? Watched you in college (I'm 36) and still can't stop.

Oh my goodness!
Iam sooooo sorry! A thousand apologies guncles! Iam on lots of medicine right now for a bronchial and ear infection and I accidentally wrote Brian instead of Bill and I hope that you will both forgive me! I LOVE your show! Iam soooo sorry once again! Take care!

I absolutely loved the ceramony.. I cried. My sister and her partner of 5 years were married in Maui. They were the only ones there(which is what they wanted) but watching your beautiful ceramony made me wish I could have been at theirs. You two are a beautiful couple and wish you years and years of happiness, joy and love.

Your friend in Oklahoma.. Nancy

P.S. Tori it does not matter what you wear..you are always gorgeous!!!:D

Hi Scout and Brian!

My name is Jill and Iam from Lewistown PA,My family,fiance and I are all great friends with Scout's Mom,Miss Jackie B.I wanted to tell you both that we wish you all of the love,luck and happiness in the world.May God bless and keep you and may your love continue to grow.Please take care and stay fabulous!

Lots of love,
Jill

Hi there...

I just wanted to say that I've never really been a big fan of Tori - I hate to admit that I passed judgement on her and viewed her as a spoiled little rich girl without really knowing anything about her. However, after watching Tori and Dean on Oxygen, I have become a BIG FAN and I now realize how wrong I was. Tori is one of the sweetest, most compassionate people (celebrity) that I've seen. Tori, I wish you and Dean and your beautiful children, continued happiness, and success. LOVE the show!

Tori and Dean, Love you both and your beautiful kid's. Tori you are a Hot<Hot<Hot Momma and Dean you are one handsome guy, i'm so jealous lol.

Congrats to the guncles!! i definatley shed a tear. it was great. i loved the location. in fact i have been there. i LOVE it there. you two deserve each other. have a great life together.

I just want to say you both rock. Tori you are a good mom and dean you are a good dad.I love the kids they are sooo cute. I love the way that you and dean put the kids frist not many do that.But the show is the best i have to see every tuesday.And once aging you both rock and the show is the best. Love the way you care about each other.

Hi Tori-
First, I want to say what a great family you have. The children are beautiful, and you guys are great parents. I enjoy (and maybe I shouldn't!)the fact that you and your hubby have some of the very same conflicts that we have here. It helps to know that no matter who you are, we are all essentially the same. Now, the reason I am leaving a comment: your relationship with your mom. You have and will get thousands of opinions on this, but ultimately, you have to do what feels right to you. Don't have any expectations, and be realistic about the kind of relationship you have and the one you want with your mom. You may never have the kind of bond you are yearning for in your heart. It may come to settling for something that enables you to at least be able to be together for the kids sake. You may just have to find a way to appreciate each other for who the other one is, and stop waiting for what in your mind is the ideal mother/daughter relationship. Because the truth may be that your Mom could be emotionally incapable of that kind of connection. All I can say is hope for the best, but be prepared for the worst. Don't let this define who you are as a person, or as a mom. Because from what we can all see, you are a darn good one! I only in the past 10 years or so have had a really good relationship with my mother and I am 37 now. But for all that time before we really didn't have a lot to say to one another. Until one day we had a very honest, and candid telephone conversation, and things grew from there. Now we talk almost everyday. It is possible, but both people have to want it. I know you do with all your heart, so I will be rooting for you!! God Bless you guys!

I know that same gender couples deserve all the rights mixed gendered couples have, but the marriage do #&@% ent is a contract between the state and the couple. The kind of ceremony you two had is perfect, the love tie that binds.

Oh Congratulations you guys!

Some food for thought on the legal contractual agreements called legal marriage:

The marriage license is Secular Contract between the parties and the State. The State is the principal party in that Secular Contract. The two parties joined are secondary or inferior parties. The Secular Contract is a three-way contract between the State, as Principal, and the couple as the other two legs of the contract. The Secular Contract is exclusively with the state, and reference to any spiritual union is a dotted line, and NOT officially considered included in the contract at all.

The State is the Principal or dominant party. The husband and wife are merely contractually "joined" as business partners, not in any personal union. It is a triangle with the State at the top and a solid line extending from the apex, the State, down the left side to the first partner, and a separate solid line extending down the right side to the other partner.

It is looked upon as a "privileged business enterprise" with various tax advantages and other political privileges have become attached to the marriage license.

Tori-

I am just in awe of you and all you do as a mommy. I am a working mommy as well but I would hardly qualify in the same category as you. I love watching your show every week! Liam and Stella are simply amazing children and SO adorable. I love how creative you are with planning events... especially with Bill and Scout. You are amazing and wish you both nothing but blessings!

Amber

Mazel Tov to the two of you. Beautiful cermony. My partner and I actually got married in Canada at Niagara Falls so I know the emotions were flowing. You both make a great couple and a shining example to all. Best wishes.

Tori,
Love the show and working on the book Mommywood. I thought I was the only one who called my 16month old boy "Buggy" but when I heard u say that to Stella I was thrilled!! My baby "Buggy" reminds me soooo much of ur baby "Monkey". U have a gorgeous family!! I also can relate to the issues u have with ur mom. My mom and I haven't had a "normal" relationship since she divorced my dad 10 years ago (partially due to her mental illness that she doesn't believe she has). I just want her to be in my sons life, but it's just about impossible at this point in time. We just got to stay strong for ourselves and our children and I thank you for telling ur "stori".

Love u guys,
Amanda KY

Dear sweet Tori,
My heart aches any time the mention of your mom comes up. Send her an invitation and see if she replies, but be prepared for an unexpected twist. I don't know much about your family, and all the drama growing up, but it is very clear to me (looking in from the outside) that your mother may be jealous. If I've heard you correctly, you were daddy's little girl. That alone may be the start of her issues. I'm sure your father was very loving and good to her, but I believe SHE needs all the attention.
Now that you've become an awesome person, not to mention, wife and mother she may resent you. You have become who you are by realizing that you don't want to be like your mother (was and is). You have made and outstanding choice. Just please remember that despite all that has happened in your life, you are the magnificent person that you are by the experiences and mistakes made by your mother. In reality though, you are who you are. It's just how you feel. You have a heart and that is what hurts the most.
I walked away from my family, and chose to be who I am and my family still resents me for it,. Don't get me wrong, we still converse and attend functions together, but I'm the outcast, but yet I know I'm the better person.
Have you every sat down w/her and confronted this problem? I don't think it's something that can be resolved over coffee. As Dean said, "You may have to make a clean break". It hurts I know, but I wish I could tell you we live in a perfect world, I can't.
I just wish you didn't have to stress so much.
I wish you much success and happiness. Stand tall Tori, and live life to the fullest.
From one aching heart to another,
Connie

Tori, Dean, Liam, and Stella,
I love your show! You all are such a beautiful family. Keep up the good work. You are wonderful together. I love Dean and you. You are an absolute positive image of what family and marriage should be. Thanks for allowing us to watch a part of your life.

During your ceremony... The Love in your hearts was shown in your eyes and the smiles on your faces - May you have a happy life till eternity together, you're both really special people!

Guncles,

Congrats on the beautiful ceremony. I wish you all the best in your future years together (there will hopefully be many) and the joy of adopting a child.

I wish you the very best. I cried while you were saying your vows. May you both be blessed beyond your wildest dreams.

It is amazing that in this life we are born into families some wonderful some not But: when we pick our friends and guncles and hand made family it is nothing short of fabulous.

I cannot wait to see the little ones come into you life. They will be blessed to have you both. And about the prop. 8 it is ridiculous. God sanctions love.. all love... no government or county can do that. If you pledge your life to someone then your married.. so make it work. Right.. God willing the wing nuts will get it right soon and there will be no legal obstacle to your marriage.. I will throw a party for you with bells on.

Congradulations and Many Many years of Bliss.\
Callie

I too say give your Mom a chance...Everyone deserves a second (maybe even third) chance....I wrote you before about how my Mom and I had our LAST chance to say we loved eachother before she was in a car accidenta week later. Then laid in a coma for 2 yrs. before she passed... I being the BIGGER person at that time. I now don`t have as many regrets....Maybe, your Mom wants to reach out to you and is afraid you will shoot her down. Inviting her to her Grand-daughters birthday is a great idea. I hope she doesn`t turn you down. LIFE IS WAY TO SHORT.

Bravo to you both...I wish you much love and happiness as you start your new life together as a married couple.May you soon hear the pitter patter of little feet too!
I look forward to your twitter updates and your appearances on the show and I loved the pics from your ceremony...absolutely fabulous! Tori did an amazing job as always.She has come a long way and her journey is not over..She is a great wife and mother..her kids are adorable..my heart goes out to her and her struggles with her mom.
Good luck and thanks for sharing your happiness with us!!!!

Bill and Scout,
I just wanted to say that your ceremony was beautiful! It made me cry! I'm so happy for you two!! Congrats on everything!!
Kelsey

Dear Scout and Bill,

I just wanted to say that I loved your ceremony. It made me smile to see two people so in love and want to spend their lives together. I think you guys will be excellent parents and give a child a wonderful life. I wish you both all the best and good luck in everything you do.

Lots love,

Heather

Congratulations on a lovely ceremony! I missed the last few episodes of T&D (the shame!) but got all caught up last night, & especially wanted to watch your ceremony. You all are very lucky indeed to have such a wonderful extended family. Good luck with your adoption ~

Tracy

Congratulations on your beautiful ceremony. It is so wonderful to see two people so much in love. You will both make wonderful parents and I hope it happens very soon.

Boys,

You sure do know how to make a grown woman CRY!

Lovely ceremony! Tori did an amazing job!

Love,

Lisa

Congratulations to the Guncles! I cried watching your ceremony. It was very touching. Tori and Dean love you both so much and I can see why. You are wonderful with the kids and will make great fathers to a very lucky child. Good luck and I hope you get your baby soon. I don't even know you but I think you will make great parents.
I just watching the show about 2 months ago and I am so hooked. I was never a Tori fan and I had never seen anything she was in, but I find her interesting. I had read about the issues she is having with her Mother and it is a very sad situation. I could not live with out the love and support of my family and it hurts me to see what others go through. I say give Candie one more chance with Stella's birthday and if she shows well still be on your guard. Nothing will come easy. IF she is a no show, well I think then Dean has her pegged for what she is.
Good luck and thank you for sharing your lives. You wear me out just watching.
Karen

Congrats to the best uncles ever! Good luck with everything. You have great friends.
