Tori Spelling has revealed she “cried like a baby” when her daughter Stella, 16, got her learner’s permit to drive.
On Tuesday, the Beverly Hills 90120 star, 51, went to instagram to share a photo of her cheerful daughter behind the wheel of a Chevrolet vehicle and wrote a lengthy message celebrating her teenager’s achievement.
‘Allowed to drive. “I’m so proud of @stella_mcdermott08,” she wrote of Stella, whom she shares with her ex-husband Dean McDermott.
The Mistle-Tones star continued: ‘She’s officially on the road with her driving license! He worked hard and aced the written exam. He started his driving lessons. And now it can be my personal uber. Life moves pretty fast.
‘But the rewards are amazing everywhere. I can still imagine her in her car seat. Me, constantly checking to make sure she was okay in the back. Now, my point of view is quite different literally, physically, mentally and emotionally.
‘I couldn’t be more proud of this sweet 16. And, I’m not going to lie, I cried like a baby when she passed away. Tears of pride. Now, I officially have 6 months until he gets his license to resolve the car situation. I love you Buggy.’

‘With five children, I feel sorry. I constantly disappoint them because my life is not stable. Their lives are not stable,” he admitted to psychotherapist Dr. Hillary Goldsher.
“I can give love in abundance, but unfortunately they are with me on this roller coaster,” he added.
Spelling also confessed that, at this time, his life is not ‘financially consistent, nor stable.’
The Saved By the Bell star went on to suggest that her children’s lives were very different financially before the birth of her youngest son, Dean.
‘They were able to have a certain life that I provided for them through work. And then, suddenly, things were not stable,” she said emotionally.
The Die Hard actress explained that she used to be a “workhorse in an empire” with “multiple shows, multiple product lines and brands.”
“And I’m not saying poor me, here I am defending myself again, but I feel like since my soon-to-be ex-husband and I separated, it’s been fight or flight,” the mother of five added.
Later on Friday, Spelling made a special appearance with Stella and Hattie on the iHeart Radio Jingle Ball red carpet.
