Tori Spelling has claimed she does not drink water, detailing an “aversion to it.”
During the Tuesday, March 11 episode of her podcast “MisSpelling,” Tori, 51, compared herself to “a cacti” as she opened up about her survival instincts. She humorously expressed, “Just water me once in a while, and I somehow survive.” Tori emphasized her neglect for drinking water, stating, “How I’m still living, no one knows. I don’t drink water. And when I say I don’t drink water, I don’t drink water.”
The reluctance to drink water dates back to Tori’s childhood, where her mother, Candy Spelling, mixed medication with Coke syrup for her. Tori recounted, “I would say, ‘What’d you put in here? Like, what are you giving me?’ And she would say the same thing, ‘What, you think I’m trying to poison you?’”
Despite her aversion to water, the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum revealed that she made an exception during her pregnancies. Tori, who has five children with ex-husband Dean McDermott — Liam, 17, Stella, 16, Hattie, 13, Finn, 12, and Beau, 8 — recognized the importance of staying hydrated for the baby’s well-being.
“But in my mind, I was like, ‘I’m drinking for them, not myself,’” Tori said. “I can guzzle, like, a glass of wine in, like, two seconds. No problem. But I take a few sips of water and swallow gently, and all of a sudden, I’m like, ‘I want to puke.’”
Tori added that also grew suspicious of McDermott, 58, spiking a recent ginger ale he recently offered her. (The pair, who married in May 2006, remain amicable after Tori filed for divorce in March 2024 — three weeks prior to McDermott filing his own response.)
Despite McDermott reminding Tori that she was “the mother of my children,” Tori said that she told him at the time, “I was like, ‘Listen, it’s not personal. I think this about everybody.”
Tori explained further, “This crazy, irrational fear of handed over liquids from other people. I don’t call it a fear of water. I just like to say I hate water, I have an allergy to water.”
Instead of water, Tori claimed she drinks ginger ale, Diet Dr. Pepper and coconut water.
Tori has become renowned for spilling details into her life, refusing to hold back on topics including her sex life. When her 90210 costar Brian Austin Green appeared on her podcast in November 2024, Tori reminded him how they hooked up at Disneyland years ago. “We had sex for the first time in Disneyland,” Tori said at the time, to which Green, 51, asked, “At Disneyland? Really? What?”
Tori then clarified that it was inside his hotel room, to which he noted, “Oh, OK, so not Disneyland. Like, not on a ride or anything like that.”
She’s also discussed anal sex, cheating, her first and only threesome and a lack of orgasms in other “MisSpelling” episodes.
