Tori Spelling’s split from husband Dean McDermott is bringing out the worst in her and her mom, Candy, seems to be caught in the middle of the messy split, insiders say.
A source exclusively describes the situation to Page Six as “catastrophic.”
“Everyone’s concerned,” they tell us.
Some sources believe McDermott has been back in rehab. However, another source tells us of the rehab speculation that “he’s definitely somewhere. No one seems to know where.”
Meanwhile, Tori and her five children had to relocate to a cheap motel after their rental home was allegedly infested with black mold. They later moved into an RV, and her mom, Candy, is “unfairly” being blamed for the former “Beverly Hills, 90201” star and TV scion’s situation.
“The public has gotten this picture that [Candy is] ignoring Tori, and it’s not true. Under no circumstances would Candy Spelling let her [daughter] live in an RV,” an insider tells us.
In fact, “[Candy] didn’t even know about it until she read it about it in Page Six,” the source claims.
Making matters more complex, Bravo’s “Million Dollar Listing” star Josh Flagg is also caught up in the Spelling family housing drama.
The celebrity realtor was responsible for helping repair Tori and Candy’s estranged relationship, and several sources told us he’s been instrumental in trying to get Tori to “look at houses for the last two months!”

“No one knows why she went to a hotel, and why she’s in an RV. It makes no sense. He sends her [listings] every day,” one says.
Tori and Flagg “are like brother and sister, and Candy is like a second mom to Josh,” a source tells us, adding that they’ve been “trying to get her a house for months!”
We’re told Candy was going to help pay for the new house, but it’s unclear how much.
Insiders are speculating that Tori’s housing antics may be a gimmick to get back on TV, with one telling us, “I bet she’s doing a reality show … Next, she’ll be at the welfare office with the kids getting food stamps. I bet you.”
The first source quipped, “She must have the paparazzi living at the trailer park. When have you ever seen the paps at Wal-Mart? It’s definitely a book deal, or some kind of series [in the works]. It’s like poor little rich girl.”
Per the source, the bottom line is that “Josh and Candy have been doing everything they can to get Tori into a house, and they just can’t make headway.’
The widow of iconic TV producer Aaron Spelling, “Candy doesn’t want a bad relationship with Tori. All that she’s ever wanted is a great relationship with her daughter, and it’s extremely difficult when you open up the newspaper and read that she’s living in an RV when she’s been trying to get her a house for months,” they said.
A rep for Tori did not get back to us.
