Tori Spelling issues heartbreaking statement on ex Patrick Muldoon's untimely death

Tori Spelling has broken the silence on the untimely death of her ex-boyfriend Patrick Muldoon.

Taking to her Instagram handle on Tuesday, the 52-year-old actress paid an emotional tribute to her ex, looking back on their time together.

“This post took me a couple days. I wasn’t ready to write because then it felt real. And, this shouldn’t be real. @thepatrickmuldoon and I met on a blind date. Which thankfully wasn’t a blind date at all because we were both on a tv series. Like every other girl in the world I crushed on his character Austin from Days of Our Lives. Not sure I ever disclosed that to him,” Tori began the lengthy post.

The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum, who dated the late actor in the 1990s, further penned, “What I met and ultimately fell in love w/ was not just a beautiful on the outside creature but the most beautiful soul. He was special and one of a kind. The kindest most caring human w/ raddest weird sense of humor. We got each other!”

“Laughed a lot! I laughed w/him and at him and he loved it. Was multi talented. Passionate about everything he did. And, he had a knack for making others smile & brought absolute joy to everyone that was blessed to be in his orbit. A true gift," she continued.

“Decades later I found him to be such a true friend/hype man when I was going thru my divorce. He would call and check on me and send me the worst jokes to make me laugh. He loved when I rolled my eyes. Now I miss those stupid jokes. I last saw him past summer," added Tori.

For those unversed, Patrick breathed his last on April 19, after suffering a heart attack.
