Dean McDermott is speaking out for the first time since accidentally telling the world he split from his wife Tori Spelling.
While speaking with the Daily Mail, McDermott revealed that he and Spelling had been dealing with relationship problems for some time. However, claims got worse when they stopped sharing a bed.
McDermott claims Spelling eventually brought literal animals into the bed. He says they’ve began sharing their bed with a pig and multiple dogs and a chicken lived in their shared bathroom.
“I just isolated more and more and more and she isolated with the kids. We were roommates. Rarely, rarely, rarely did we eat together. We’d sit down and have a family meal but it was always disjointed,” he explained. “It made me feel worse because I knew I was a big part of [the problem] and I was at a place where I felt there was nothing I could do about it.”
“I’ve never been so lonely in the same house with six other people, never been so lonely in my life. I didn’t know how to get out of the situation I was in. I was hurting. I was heartbroken. I was depressed. I hated myself. I didn’t want to live.”
Then came the mistake that ended it all.
As Mamas Uncut previously reported, on June 17, Dean McDermott took to Instagram to announce his separation from Tori Spelling. However, just mere minutes later, McDermott deleted the post.
“It’s with great sadness and a very very heavy heart that after 18 years together and 5 amazing children, that @torispelling and I have decided to go our separate ways, and start a new journey of our own,” he wrote, at the time, alongside photographs of himself and Spelling and their kids.
“We will continue to work together as loving parents and guide and love our children through this difficult time. We ask that you all respect our privacy as we take this time to surround our family with love and work our way through this. Thank you all for your support and kindness.”
