Tori Spelling is taking a step back as she navigates new directions in her life and career. The 53-year-old actress recently shared a photo of herself in a black halter bikini top and denim shorts, captioned ‘Intermission.’ This comes as she exits the ‘90210MG’ podcast, which she co-launched with Jennie Garth in 2020.
Spelling, known for her role as Donna Martin on ‘Beverly Hills, 90210,’ has played a significant part in revisiting the series through the podcast. Launched in November 2020, the podcast took fans through the show’s 10-season run, sharing memories and insights. Spelling’s departure means she will not continue with the podcast, which is nearing the end of its rewatch journey.
Spelling explained her departure during an episode of Brian Austin Green’s ‘Hump Day Live,’ stating, ‘You want to really take the time, really assess, really reflect and then be able to speak your truth in a thoughtful way.’
Although she refrained from ruling out a return, Spelling encouraged fans to support Garth and new co-host Amy Sugarman. She said, ‘Please keep watching. Jennie and Amy are doing it. They’re bringing on tons of fun hosts.’ This sentiment reflects a supportive parting and her lasting friendship with Green, who played her on-screen partner David Silver.
Spelling and Green’s bond has been notable since their early days on ‘90210.’ Despite years of separation, they have rekindled their friendship. Green mentioned a lack of self-confidence during their years apart, and Spelling has been vocal about their enduring connection.
Garth expressed her disappointment at Spelling’s exit, indicating they began the podcast together. Still, she voiced understanding and happiness for Spelling’s choice to focus on new beginnings. Sugarman confirmed the decision was entirely Spelling’s, noting the team’s mixed emotions of disappointment and support.
Spelling has yet to reveal the full reasoning behind her exit, opting for private reflection. Her departure marks a pivotal moment as she considers future ventures and life changes.
