Who is Tori Spelling’s ultra-wealthy mum, Candy Spelling, and does she help her daughter? Worth US$600 million, the Selling Spelling Manor star has come under fire for her daughter’s situation

- It’s no secret that Beverly Hills, 90210 star Tori Spelling and her occasionally estranged mum Candy Spelling have had their ups and downs over the years

It’s no secret that Tori Spelling and her mother Candy have had their ups and downs over the years. The fact that both of them are so high-profile in Hollywood means that much of what they do – from relationships to affairs to financial troubles – ends up in the public domain.

And sadly, the Spellings have been making headlines for years.
At the end of February it was revealed that Tori had finally moved into a comfortable, five-bedroom rental home in Woodland Hills, California, after spending months crashing in motels and living out of an RV with her children, per British media.
When news of Tori’s financial woes and living situation came to light, many netizens took to social media to express their confusion. After all, Tori’s mother is a multimillionaire sitting on a hefty inheritance thanks to her late husband (more on that later).
Either way, things appear to be looking up for Tori – at least for now.
Here’s what we know about Candy Spelling, her relationship with her kids, and why things have turned out this way.
