He might be the one accused of cheating, placing undue strain on their seven-year-marriage, but Dean McDermott has his own issues to deal with at home: his “hypochondriac” wife Tori Spelling!
A source close to McDermott, 47, told Breaking Celebrity News how the Canadian-born actor often bemoans to pals how his wife has become a poster child for health phobias and stress.
Joked one insider: “Over the years, Tori has diagnosed herself with terminal cancer, brain tumors, incontinence... the list just goes on and on.”
But in all seriousness, the source added, the 40-year-old mother-of-four’s excessive worry about having a serious illness that does not exist has caused drama inside the couple's once solid union.
"If Tori get a headache, she immediately thinks she is having an aneurysm,” said the source.
"This happened years before her pregnancy with Finn, in which she was hospitalized and placed on bed rest. There have been countless trips to various emergency rooms because Tori would think she needed immediate medical attention.
"Several times, Tori was told by doctors that she was only having panic attacks. It has taken a huge strain on the marriage because Tori lives her life in such fear.”
The ex-90210 star has had her fair share of illnesses, as we’ve previously documented: In October 2012, she was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital, where she learned she had a condition called placenta previa, in which the placenta covers the opening of the cervix.
