yes, it's true. and that sucks for Mary Jo (and for Tori if the rumors are true) but it's not relevant in terms of their parenting. and it was so long ago that honestly, it's not really relevant anymore at all. it doesn't change the fact that Dean is this kid's dad and his relationship with his father is (and should be) separate from whatever went down between the adults.

The kid is probably having a hard time of hearing what an asshole people think his father was/is now that he's getting a little too old to be shielded from the bad press and what people really think of Dean.
But he's misplacing blame if he thinks this (people seeing Dean in a negative light) has anything to do with his mother. Dean did a good enough job of making himself look like a freeloader slimeball for years before his ex decided to cooperate in a podcast.
Exactly why I think the ex would have been wiser to stay away from any projects with Dean. But this is what both Dean and Tori do (sell their personal lives) because it's the only thing they have going for them when it comes to even making a pissant of an attempt to pay their own bills and support all these kids.
They should maybe try going back to acting. They could always do shitty lifetime/hallmark movies.

Well the whole premis of the podcast is that they were exs
And Dean left after the third episode?
The reviews are hilarious.

My response to being asked to participate in this would have been: No thanks. Or just no response. She probably did it as a favor to him and it looks like that shit backfired big time.

she seems to have built a cottage industry out of rehashing her divorce so i doubt it was a favour so much as another way to keep milking it for cash. it's not like she was getting much alimony from dean but she probably could have been more successful if she'd stayed in canada doing cooking shows.

I never knew who the hell this Mary Jo lady was at all (and likely never would have) until she got shit on by her lesser known actor hubby who left her and his kid to fuck Tori Spelling during the chance he got to work with her.
Hell, for that matter, I might never have known who Dean McDermott was if he hadn't fucked Tori, proceeded to get himself hitched to her, then make sure they popped out a bunch of meal tickets so they could be supported by her mom and not have to worry about working. After all this he has the audacity to cheat on her too.
If anyone deserves to rehash her divorce and milk it for money it's the wife who didn't ask for any of this shit. And can't be getting much bank from Dean seeing as how he can't even support his own family.
Even though Dean is easily the more despicable of the two, I can't muster up much sympathy for Tori, try as I might, because she's a cheater herself and a colossal dumbass for choosing this dude to cheat with, then go on to marry and have kids with.
I just know that Tori and Dean have made a habit out of trying to sell their relationship (and occasional faux-breakup drama) on a far grander scale with their reality shows, interviews and tabloid fodder than his ex with her books and docs that no one knows about (comparatively to their money-grabs). I mean, I never paid attention to this. Maybe because his wife is only famous for having been fucked over by these two. Again, something she never asked for.
I find the T&D money-grabs way more pathetic (than the wife trying to cash in and compensate) for a couple of reasons: They had legit careers they were famous for before they became famous for being a couple of lazy, freeloading, over-breeding fuckups. They were not the ones who were unfairly shit upon. They were the ones who shit on others. Nonetheless, they will always have some sort of an audience no matter what just because she is Tori Spelling, daughter of Aaron Spelling.
In fact, why Tori feels the need to stay with this dude is beyond me. Maybe because of all these fucking kids. Perhaps he's got her gaslighted into thinking she'd have to support him since she (or rather Candy) has for so many years. I think if she left him and this relationship in the dust and never even mentioned him again she could probably have a halfway decent career if she wanted. Definitely not have to deal with the humiliation of being repeatedly cheated on. She's the only one I find the least bit interesting of all these folks.

Dean and tori got married in 2006. If she’s still not over it and she’s still beating that dead horse, to the point her adult son is calling her out in public and the daughter she adopted on her own is inexplicably spending Christmas at tori and dean’s, that’s on her, not her ex no matter how much of a douche he is. That dean and tori are idiots (though a fact) is irrelevant. She could have gotten remarried and divorced multiple times since then lol

What does getting remarried (or not) necessarily prove? That she's sufficiently over it? That's as silly as the notion that two people who have managed to stay clinging to a dysfunctional relationship since 2006 (and boy do we know more than we ever needed to about that) are somehow providing any healthier of an environment for kids. But hey, at least the kids aren't dealing with multiple fucked up relationship models by one of their parents choosing to stay single. And they do have one another to lean on, as there's so many of them under the same roof. For now, anyway. The lady was obviously over it enough to co-parent for 17 years without driving any children away until now. Incredible feat for a bitter, never-remarried ex.

It's so weird. I literally learned how to cook as a young teen watching What's For Dinner with Mary Jo and Ken Kostick and she always seemed so sweet and fun. It's strange seeing her all messy.

I never knew MaryJo Eustace was the Brandi Glanville of Canada. The difference is that MaryJo had a career, Brandi stopped hers (she made a living modeling, I'm not sure how popular a model she was though) when she married her ex. Brandi did however, use Leanne and Eddie to kick start a new career. One that she's proven to be fairly successful in. While I'm not a fan of reality TV, I think more modern people know her better than Eddie, maybe even a little more than LR too.
