Tori Spelling wants to ‘humiliate’ Dean McDermott

Hell hath no fury like a reality star scorned.

On “True Tori” (premiering April 22 on Lifetime), the cheating scandal that rocked Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott‘s seven-year marriage — and McDermott’s subsequent admission to rehab to treat “health and personal issues” — will play out on camera.

But for the couple, who have co-starred in several reality shows, life after McDermott’s December extramarital romp with 28-year-old Emily Goodhand is bleak.

The decision to do this show is not coming from someone who is in a solid, good place. Tori is very, very upset and angry,” a source close to Spelling tells People.  

The source adds that “a part of [Spelling] wants to completely humiliate him and make him suffer in front of millions of people. She wants to have some sort of justice. She wants him to truly feel the pain of what he did to her.”

While she might be suffering on camera, the source insists that the idea to take their marital struggles public “was all Tori’s idea.”

“She’s in a total crisis mode. If she can believe that his addiction has nothing to do with her, then maybe they can move on. But there’s no way Dean wants to be humiliated on television for cheating on his wife. His life is basically a nightmare.”
