The State of California Franchise Tax Board has filed multiple tax liens against Tori Spelling totaling around $96,000 over unpaid tax totals.

Tax officials named Spelling, 50, in the liens over a pair of alleged debts: A sum of $59,049.02 for unpaid taxes in 2017, 2018, and 2019; and $36,717.11 for taxes that were not paid in 2021, The Blast reported Wednesday after reviewing documents in the case.

Authorities filed a lien against the Beverly Hills, 90210 star’s home in Calabasas, California, according to the outlet.

The board said in its statement that the fees and interest charges will continue piling up until the balances are settled, the outlet reported.

It’s been a trying year for Spelling, who in addition to her financial problems, has dealt with insecure living conditions, physical illness and her separation from estranged husband Dean McDermott.

McDermott this past June announced on Instagram that he and Spelling were ending their longtime relationship.

‘It’s with great sadness and a very very heavy heart that after 18 years together and 5 amazing children, that @torispelling and I have decided to go our separate ways and start a new journey of our own,’ McDermott said.

He added: ‘We will continue to work together as loving parents and guide and love our children through this difficult time. We ask that you all respect our privacy as we take this time to surround our family with love and work our way through this.’

Spelling and McDermott share five children: Liam, 16, Stella, 15, Hattie, 12, Finn, 11, and Beau, six. McDermott is also father to son, Jack, 25, whom he shares with ex, Mary Jo Eustace, 61.

Both have seemingly moved on to new romances in the wake of their split, as Spelling has been seen with ad exec Ryan Cramer, while McDermott has been linked to businesswoman Lily Calo.

In August, an insider told US Weekly that Spelling ‘isn’t in a good place financially’ after years of ill-advised decisions with her money.

The source said, ‘She hasn’t necessarily been financially conscious with her money over the years, taking the family’s future into consideration, and it’s catching up with her.’

Spelling was seen in August staying in an RV park in Ventura County, California with her five kids. Prior to that, the family was seen staying at a Ventura County $100-a-night motel. 

The actress was seen on QVC earlier this year promoting different holiday-themed products

Spelling in May left a rental home she and her children had been staying in amid what she said was a continuing issue with mold that impacted the family’s health.  

The litany of tough breaks mark a reversal of fortune for Spelling, who grew up immersed in Hollywood luxury, as her late father Aaron Spelling produced hit shows such as Dynasty, Charlie’s Angels and The Love Boat, as well as Melrose Place, Charmed and Beverly Hills, 90210.

Aaron left behind a $500 million empire, with Tori’s inheritance coming in at $800,000. 

She has had a complicated relationship with her mother Candy over the years: Aaron Spelling passed away in June of 2006, which was less than a year after Tori made headlines in 2005 for her extramarital affair with McDermott while both were married; her to Charlie Shahnaian, and McDermott to Eustace. 

She and McDermott eloped in Fiji in May of 2006, just a month before Aaron’s death. 

In her 2008 book sTORI Telling, Tori said that her family was disappointed in her eloping with McDermott, and both the mother and daughter have publicly spoken about their complicated relationship in the years since. 

While things appear to be on decent terms – with Tori wishing her mother a happy birthday in September – it was not immediately clear if Candy has offered to help her daughter financially amid her recent struggles.

Tori appeared to be recovering after she spent multiple days in a hospital with an unknown illness over the summer, as she entered a medical facility on August 17.

On August 20, she posted an image of her hospital wristband on social media, while praising her children. She said at the time, ‘Grateful and so proud of my strong, brave, resilient and kind to the core children who remain positive no matter what comes our way.’

Before her hospital stint, Spelling was seen working on a project in Los Angeles.

A source told DailyMail.com earlier this month that Spelling was ‘having some money issues,’ and looking toward returning to the reality TV genre as a result.

‘Tori is caught between a rock and a hard place right now as she is trying to figure out what her next job is going to be,’ the source said. 

DailyMail.com has reached out to Spelling’s reps for comment on the story.
