Tori Spelling Reveals Surprising Freezer Contents On Her Podcast
Tori Spelling has some unexpected items in her freezer. On the June 28 episode of her podcast, misSPELLING, the actress, 51, revealed she has been storing two of her placentas in her freezer, though she can’t remember which of her kids they belong to.
Tori, who shares five children with her ex-husband Dean McDermott — 17-year-old Liam, 16-year-old Stella, 12-year-old Hattie, 11-year-old Finn, and 7-year-old Beau — also mentioned she has another placenta stored at her friend’s house.
“I will comment on the last thing [people] would think I have in my freezer, though. And that would be my placenta,” she began.
“Unsure which child. There’s 2 in there. So unless I have, like, the biggest placenta in the world, there’s 2 vats in there,” she added.
She went on to explain that storing placentas is not as unusual as it may seem. “This is normal. Because there’s all that fancy stuff you’re supposed to they say it’s good luck to eat it, or it’s good luck to bury it, or it’s good luck to, you know, have it sent and made into that powder and they put into pills and I’m just too lazy to send it out,” she stated.
Tori went on to apologize to her “best friend Jess” for having to store her youngest son’s placenta at her house. “His is still in her freezer,” she shared, adding, “You want to talk about good friends? She came to the hospital the day Beau was born. But because I had a C-section and we had complications, and Beau had to stay in the hospital for a bit, I said, ‘Jess, can you take the placenta home because they’ve given it to me and I don’t know what to do with it?’ So she, like a proper best friend, did take it home.”
However, Tori admitted that her friend has asked her “a few times over the last seven years” to take it back.
“I’m going to one day,” the actress said.
“The ones in my freezer currently, I don’t know. We move a lot, so unfortunately a couple got lost. Imagine they got lost or left at a rental. Imagine you open up a freezer and…that would be interesting to put on eBay,” she added.
In a surprising twist, the Smallville actress also shared that she and McDermott once ate one of her placentas together. “Dean’s an amazing chef. So, I mean, it was like, a little truffle oil, little salt and pepper. He cooked it and seasoned it and it was actually really good,” she claimed.
