VIDEO: Dean McDermott's Ex Speaks Out On Tori Spelling: "I Had To Meet The Other Woman"
Posted on Oct 20, 2009 @ 01:14PM
Mary Jo Eustace, the ex-wife of TV actor Dean McDermott, discussed learning the painful news that her husband was leaving her for actress Tori Spelling on Good Morning America Tuesday.
Eustace said that McDermott, who divorced her and married Spelling in 2006, had come in from a golf game and told his then-wife that he had bedded the 90210 alum, and that he felt Spelling was his "soul-mate" who loved him "unconditionally."
Tori Spelling Is A Designing Woman
Canada native Eustace -- who authored a book about her experiences, titled Divorce Sucks -- said that McDermott refused to let her leave the country with the kids unless she met Spelling (who later admitted in her own memoirs she had a knife inside her purse).
"I had to meet the other woman," she said of the three-hour meeting.

Eustace said that on that day, she told Spelling how she disapproved of her behavior, but at the same time, stayed in Spelling's good graces so McDermott would permit her to leave the country.
Eustace said that things are cordial between her and her ex, three years removed from the split.

"I'm always civil for my son Jack," Eustace said. "My son is the light of my life."
The book, Divorce Sucks, is in stores now. You can read an excerpt at GMA.

Dean did not adopt the baby girl. The adoption was not final when the marriage broke up. Marriages end all the time yet people still vent against it happening to these people. Mary Jo needs to move on with her life.

Mary Jo is a terrific tv personality, very funny, and what happened to her is sad. She needs to move on and forget that jerk. He'll cheat on Tori one day. Once a cheater.....

Another POS just like Eddie and LeAnn. All relationships that begin as a product of cheating are doomed imo. Once a cheater....

She is a very successful woman herself, and has been a very popular television host for years in Canada. And she is very funny. They were in the process of adopting the baby girl when he bailed. What a nice guy he is, such class.

Yea Divorce sucks, but to write a book for your kids to see also sucks. Get over it and find someone else who can appreciate you. clearly Dean was looking for a woman with money.

Their son is going to know what happened whether she wrote the book or not.

She neeeds to get over it already! Not healthy for their son. She obviously couldn't keep her man so boo-hoo. Now she's trying to make money off of it (does she know Kate?) Dean and Tori are so happy and she can't stand it. GET OVER IT!!!
