Tori Spelling’s Troubling Spending Sprees

Desperate to find comfort as her career and life crumble, Tori Spelling has gone on a spending splurge — binging on luxuries she doesn’t need and can’t afford! Now the former “Beverly Hills, 90210” star is even more financially strapped! Yet despite her money woes, the mom of four still pays two nannies to watch her brood, drives a brand-new Range Rover Sport and splurges on massages and nightclubbing.

The reality-show star — who's also shilling for phone psychics — has already been clobbered with a tax bill of nearly $1 million this year, plus an approximately $40,000 lawsuit filed by American Express, said sources. “Tori is doing everything to excess!” an insider complained. “Whenever she does anything, it’s over the top!”

Insiders have told The National ENQUIRER that they fear Tori has become desperate to escape her career and family woes. “It’s a sad house,” said a snitch close to Tori and husband Dean McDermott. “Neither of them can get anything done professionally.”

Sources said that Tori recently begged her moneybags mom, Candy, for a financial rescue, but was spurned. Now she appears to be trying to forget her troubles with overspending and partying, said mental health expert Dr. Gilda Carle.

“She seems to be trying to escape her life with her cheating second husband, kids and debt — and burying that in all her excesses that aren’t good for her,” noted Dr. Carle, who hasn’t treated Tori. “But there’s only so far you can run. It always catches up to you!”
