Aaron Spelling's Net Worth Went To His Wife Candy, And His Kids...
Aaron Spelling reportedly left his $600 million net worth to his wife Candy, who then doled out relatively small amounts to the couple's two kids. Since then, Tori Spelling has lost much of her money, leaving her with a very low net worth while her mom Candy is still worth $600M.
Who Inherited Aaron Spelling's Fortune?
Aaron Spelling had a massive net worth prior to his passing in 2006. The film and television producer crafted a lifestyle for himself and his family, unlike any other Hollywood legend.
The Spellings were known for their lavishness, much of which stems from their former Holmby Street mansion, known as The Manor. It is the largest house in Los Angeles County, which says everything there is to know about how rich the Spellings were.
The star managed to amass a net worth of $600 million, which was passed to his wife, Candy Spelling, and their two kids, Tori and Randy Spelling. Well, roughly $598,400,000 went to Candy, while $800,000 went to each of the Spelling siblings.
For perspective, each sibling received .003 percent of Aaron's fortune. Yet the fortune only grew bigger when the Spelling mansion was sold for a whopping $120,000,000 back in 2019.
What Happened To Tori Spelling's Inheritance?
While it was never confirmed by any member of the Spelling family, it is believed that Tori's spending habits and reported shopping addiction were the reason why she received .003% of her father's estate.
According to Candy Spelling, Tori has had a spending problem since she was younger. Candy revealed that Tori Spelling would sometimes "close a store and drop $50,000 to $60,000. She just went crazy!"
Tori Spelling spoke out about her feelings regarding her inheritance during a visit to Lisa Vanderpump's newest show on E! Overserved. Tori along with fellow guest, Jeff Lewis, discussed the actress's inheritance. Lewis explained how she received "very little" all while Spelling chimed in claiming "it could be worse!"
Although she didn't seem to have any type of resentment, considering it's known that Candy Spelling is financially taking care of her grandchildren's education, among many other things.
"Maybe your father did you a favor!" Lisa Vanderpump said. While Lisa's comment came from a good place, Tori didn't quite agree. The actress revealed that she does have a few "what ifs."
"What if he gave me $50 million?" Tori asked. She went on to say that she could have done wonderful things with that money, including changing "the world," she said.
Then, rumors that Candy refused to help her daughter financially amid her personal troubles, which might have changed fans' perceptions.
How Much Is Tori Spelling Worth Today?
Though Tori Spelling was born into a wealthy family, her net worth has not kept pace with her very rich mother's. It's said that Candy gave Tori and her estranged husband Dean a home, but the house eventually wound up with mold issues, forcing Tori to move out with her kids.
Unfortunately, after years of apparent overspending, Tori's net worth tanked, and she had trouble finding a place to live after the mold problem.
