Super skinny Tori Spelling is all smiles as she dons a bright orange bikini while on a family vacation in Hawaii this week.
The 36-year-old actress -- who has repeatedly denied rumors she is anorexic -- is in Maui with hubby Dean McDermott, two-year-old son Liam, and baby Stella.
Spelling has blamed her recent weight loss to her hectic lifestyle. Of course, the stress of her long-standing feud with her mother Candy Spelling may well be another factor.

EXCLUSIVE: Randy Spelling Is Not Taking Sides

Randy Spelling wants no part of his family’s drama.
In an exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com, Randy declined to discuss his mother’s comment yesterday that Tori had “killed” her father by refusing to see him when he was ill, or their competing books.
The 2006 death of TV mogul Aaron Spelling had a very different impact on his son.
Randy, 30, is now a Life Coach with his own company called Being in Flow.
“After my dad died, I took stock of my life,” he said.
“I’ve always been into people and spirituality, and a friend suggested I take a course in becoming a life coach.
“I had never even heard of a life coach but I enrolled in a school and it became a real passion.
“I am committed to empowering people.”
Randy said he has not closed the door on show business however.
More interested in producing that acting though, he said he has several projects in the works.
“I might produce a show about self-discovery,” he said.
“And if I write a book, it would only be about helping people.”
Look out Dr. Phil!

“He called Tori on a daily basis, and never stopped asking if Tori had returned his call.
“We had to say no every day.”
The widow Spelling is currently promoting her new book Stories From Candyland, and appeared on radio station 94.7 WMAS-FM.

“And it was sad, that's what killed my husband, actually.
“He just didn't want to live after that.
“He [had] just done everything he could possibly do for his daughter, and she wanted no part of him once he couldn't do anything for her."

Candy Spelling, a friend of actress Farrah Fawcett for almost four decades, discussed the Charlie's Angels actresses' failing health with Larry King Thursday.
Spelling's late husband, Aaron, helped launch the ailing blond beauty to fame in awarding her a role on Charlie's Angels, which made her a pop culture icon and sex symbol of the 70s.
Said Spelling: "It was the Farrah phenomena -- happened in 1976 when "Charlie's Angels" happened and then they did this poster."
