Tori Spelling expresses excitement over potential new family member

Tori Spelling just gushed that she "can't wait" to be a grandma.

The 52-year-old actress, who has Liam, 18, Stella, 17, Hattie, 14, and 13-year-old Finn with ex-husband Dean McDermott, doesn't think her children will be having kids any time soon, but she is excited for when that time comes and she will have a huge family around her.

Discussing her hopes for the future, she told Us Weekly magazine, “Well, I can wait on this one but one day, one day, one day, I can’t wait to grow our family and be a grandma and a great grandma.”

Tori continued, "We had a small family growing up. I obviously have a big family now. I’ve seen through my older kids finding their partners and getting to know their family.

“I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh, I see the future’ and it’s not right now, but I can’t wait to be that grandma and great grandma, and have so many grandchildren and babies running around and cooking for them and celebrating life with them,” she said.

April was a challenging month for Tori because she and her children were involved in a car crash, and she also mourned her ex-boyfriend Patrick Muldoon after he died from a heart attack.

And the last few weeks have made the Beverly Hills 90210 star vowed to appreciate every moment even more.

She said, “You have to celebrate it,” adding, “And I think life’s too short, and we’re all realising that lately. So, yeah, you have to celebrate every day. “

Tori recently paid tribute to Days of Our Lives star Patrick, who she had met on a blind date and remained "good friends" with after their romance ended.

She wrote on Instagram, "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. What I met and ultimately fell in love w/ was not just a beautiful on the outside creature but the most beautiful soul,” Tori Spelling further penned as she dedicated a rather lengthy tribute to Patrick.
