Tori Spelling Husband: Dean McDermott a Bad Dad? Ex-Wife Claims 5 Months of Unpaid Child Support

Tori Spelling's husband Dean McDermott is now facing a lawsuit as his then-wife Mary Jo Eustace is demanding child support, which she claims has been upaid for five months. McDermott owes approximately $8,700 to his 16-year-old son Jack.

In Touch Weekly have posted the court documents which reveal that McDermott, 48, was served court papers for not paying his child support from his previous marriage.

"He's a deadbeat dad," a source told the magazine. "He never thought he'd be served."

According to the court papers, the 48-year-old must pay the amount in 30 days or else "he could lose his driver's license or even wind up in jail."

Reports say that Spelling's husband has fallen short of his child support beginning May. It was not a secret that Tori and Dean are facing financial woes in the past months, as they revealed in their reality show "True Tori." The couple transferred to a smaller home in Calabasas to make ends meet.

As previously shown in the Lifetime reality series, Tori admitted how they were struggling from day to day so that they could provide the needs of their four children, according to Daily Mail.

"We live paycheck to paycheck!" Tori admits in "True Tori" back in October. "After this (True Tori) I have no f***ing idea if work's going to come in. Like, how am I going to support my family in six months?"

Meanwhile, sources told Radar Online that McDermott's former wife, Eustace, has been really upset now that he's not paying what he owes. She reportedly wants him to pay her no matter what.

Tori and her husband are facing financial distress that made them put up a garage sale on Father's day. Last year, Tori's ABC Family series "Mystery Gilrs," which also stars Jennie Garth, was axed after just one season. McDermott also resigned from his "Chopped: Canada in March" gig.

Tori and her husband have four children: Liam, 8, Stella, 7, Hattie, 3, and Finn, 2. McDermott left his first wife in 2005 after meeting Tori on the set of a TV movie.
