HARD TIMES FOR TORI

SHE grew up in the most luxurious mansion in Los Angeles, with servants at her beck and call, walk-in wardrobes dripping with designer clothing and a doting daddy who'd do anything for his little princess.

As the only daughter of late TV mogul Aaron Spelling, Tori Spelling had everything - including a role in her dad's hit series Beverly Hills 90210, which turned her into a household name.

But the present is a different story. Last month, shocking pictures emerged of the 50-year-old living in a low-budget motel with her five kids. Dressed in a cropped top, tracksuit pants and sneakers, she looked downcast as she exited the establishment with sons Liam (16), Finn (10) and Beau (6) and daughters Stella (15) and Hattie (11). The sighting came just weeks after her husband of 17 years, actor Dean McDermott (56), announced they'd split. This was followed by reports she'd been forced to leave the marital home due to a toxic mould problem.

A short while later, Tori and the kids were seen staying in a campsite outside LA, supposedly on a "budget-friendly" holiday. Tori was spotted walking through the park dressed in a white bathrobe and black slippers, later sitting in a foldout chair with a cup of coffee.

She wanted to get "out of the hustle and bustle of LA" and was looking for "peace of mind for her and her children", according to a source.

But there's no denying the downgrade in her lifestyle. Her childhood home - dubbed The Manor - had 123 rooms, including one used only for wrapping gifts.

Now she appears to be on the skids and fans are furious, demanding to know why her wealthy mother, Candy Spelling, hasn't stepped in. But the 77-year-old socialite has apparently offered to help her daughter and reportedly found her a house she refused to move into. Insiders say Tori has also turned down help from friends.
