Tori Spelling and 7 Children Are Hospitalized After Serious Car Accident in California: Report

Tori Spelling and seven children in her vehicle were reportedly hospitalized in California after a serious car crash this week.

Law enforcement officers arrived on the scene in Temecula, California, on Thursday, April 2, after the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum, 52, was involved in a collision, per TMZ.

Law enforcement sources told the outlet that Spelling had seven children in her car — four of her own and three others — when they were struck by a vehicle that allegedly sped through a red light. TMZ reported that Spelling potentially managed to avoid serious injury to herself and the children with a last-second attempt to maneuver the vehicle out of the way.

All occupants from both cars were reportedly evaluated at the scene but no arrests were made. Footage from the aftermath showed Spelling speaking with officers in front of her damaged SUV.

Spelling and the seven children were transported in three separate ambulances to a local hospital, where they were treated for cuts, bruises, contusions, and concussions, per TMZ.

Us Weekly has reached out to Spelling’s representative for comment.

It is not clear which four of Spelling’s five children were in the car at the time of the crash. She shares Liam Aaron, 19, Stella Doreen, 17, Hattie Margaret, 14, Finn Davey, 13, and Beau Dean, 9, with her ex-husband, Dean McDermott. (Spelling and McDermott, 59, were married for 17 years before separating in June 2023. They finalized their divorce in December 2025.)

Spelling was previously involved in a serious car accident while pregnant in 2011.

At the time, Spelling said she was trying to avoid photographers when she inadvertently crashed into her children’s elementary school with two of her kids — Liam and Stella — in the car. The podcaster was seemingly trying to reverse away from the school when the collision occurred.

“Paparazzi chased me w/the kids 2 school. I was trying to get away from him and had a pretty big accident. Took down whole wall of school,” she tweeted in June 2011.

The actress claimed that the photographer who allegedly caused the crash still tried to snap her picture in the middle of the wreckage.

“[The photographer] then STILL got out to try to get pics,” she alleged. “Ten school moms chased him away. What will it take? Someone dying for paparazzi to stop?”
