[ # ] Tori Spelling talks about her mom and her not talking

Tori Spelling has a new book out, so that means she is talking about her mom again. Here is what she told People about her relationship with her mom.

“It’s not like we’re not talking, we just haven’t talked,” the actress, whose new book, Mommywood, hits bookstores Tuesday, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview. “I love my mother. I’ve always loved her [and] no doubt she loves me. There’s no feud. We simply never meshed.”
As for what happened between them, Tori, 35, simply says, “My mother is who she is. I’ve become who I am. At some point I realized those two just didn’t go together.”

It is so sad that a mother and daughter don’t get along like that.
Tori also responded to claims that her mother has never met her granddaughter Stella:

“I, in no way, cut her off. She is welcome to make the effort if she wants to be present in their lives,” says the 90210 actress, noting the last contact with her mother was an email Tori sent while pregnant with Stella. “She knows how to reach me, she knows where we live. If she would love to see her grandchildren, she should really make an effort to reach out and see them.”

Hopefully Candy will make the effort to get to know her grandchildren. I just don’t understand how a mother and a daughter can’t get along like that and take to the media to say that they don’t.

SOW note: I try not to get too personal on my blog. But I personally think that Tori and Candy need to get over the problems that they have with each other. I would do anything to tell my mother that “I love her” one more time, but I can’t because she is no longer here for me to do so. And here are Tori and Candy spending more of an effort talking about their relationship in their books and to the media than they do with each other. Maybe if they spent as much time talking to each other as they to do the press, they would have worked things out by now. While I don’t know their situation and it is not my place to judge, I just know you have only one mother, and Candy has only one daughter and I hope that neither of them should ever wake up and realize it is too late to make a difference. I am thankful that my last conversation with my mother was “I love you”, and I wish that on everyone. But I don’t wish the loss on anyone. Sorry to be on a soap box, but this story really got me thinking about my mom and how lucky I was to have had the relationship that I had with her! I miss and love you mom! OK! Next post will be a funny one for you the readers and me!!!

UPDATE: Candy Spelling wrote a letter to Tori on her website asking her to contact her because she says she has tried to contact Tori, but Tori is ignoring her communications.

It’s not for us to judge. Some relationships are toxic. And moms can be the worst. Some mothers are not the shining light in our lives that yours must have been. Forgive and overlook for the sake of the grandkids? Not if the toxicity will be inflicted on them as well.

As nice as the sentiment is to just love eachother and get over it, and as much as you probably miss your mother, not all mothers and daughters get along. As Karma says, some relationships are toxic. Most people think that just because this is a blood relation that there is some magical bond and that love will conquer all, but I know from experience that is not reality for a lot of people. Some women should not be mothers, and some people, whatever relation they are to eachother, just do not get along.

I gotta agree with the comments above. I have not had a relationship with my mother for 6 years. She has met her grandchildren only a handful of times, and I intend to keep it that way. She was both physically and emotionally abusive. She has shown no remorse–in fact her only response to me what that I needed to get over it. In the very few times she has been with my children, she has tried to manipulate the way they think about me and my husband. Although I do not know the whole story, I applaud Tori for her independence and maturity in this obviously awkwardly public situation.

yeah, unless you have a crazy, abusive, toxic mother, you can’t understand.

Tori looks really good in that picture.

Only in LA would a mother try to contact her daughter through her website. Gag.

It is Tori’s problem.

This nut is how old and acting like she’s 12?? Seriously who the hell acts like this towards their mom at this age, grow up. But I guess this is all the press she can get with a face like that.
