Actor Tori Spelling and seven children were injured after being involved in an accident Thursday in Temecula.
Spelling and all the children were taken to a local hospital, where they were treated for injuries, according to NBC News and multiple reports.
She is the mother of four of the children traveling in the SUV she was driving when it was struck by another vehicle that was allegedly speeding and ran a red light.
The Riverside County Sheriff’s office told People in a statement Sunday that deputies responded to a crash at 5:45 p.m. Thursday in Temecula, 80 miles outside of Los Angeles.
The drivers and passengers were evaluated at the scene, and no arrests were made. The cause of the collision remains under investigation.
Spelling is the daughter of the TV producer Aaron Spelling and is best known as a co-star of the 1990s hit Fox drama “Beverly Hills, 90210.” She is the mother of five children, Liam, 19, Stella, 17, Hattie, 14, Finn, 13, and Beau, 9, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Dean McDermott.
In 2011, Spelling was involved in a crash with her children in a vehicle that she said was prompted by paparazzi. Spelling was pregnant at the time of the incident, and her oldest two children were in the car. “Paparazzi chased me w/the kids 2school,” she wrote in a post on Twitter. “I was trying to get away from him and had a pretty big accident. Took down whole wall of school.”

It is not the first time the star has been caught up in road drama, back in 2011, she was involved in an accident while fleeing paparazzi with two of her children.
“Paparazzi chased me w/the kids 2school,” she posted at the time.
“I was trying to get away from him and had a pretty big accident. Took down whole wall of school.”
Spelling, who was pregnant during that 2011 incident said other mothers stepped in and helped by “chasing him away.”
She shares children Liam, 19, Stella, 17, Hattie, 14, Finn, 13, and Beau, nine, with ex-husband Dean McDermott, whom she married in 2006.
The former couple announced their split in 2023, with their divorce finalized in November 2025.
“I am officially divorced. It’s been quite a journey,” Spelling said on her misSPELLING podcast, calling it “one of the easiest divorces in Hollywood.”
Despite the chapter closing on her marriage, Spelling told People last month she has no plans to date, saying she is firmly in her “power era.”
“I have so many businesses that I want to build, [and build] my empire and I can date later,” she said. “That can always come.”
Just last week, the TV personality was spotted at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards in Los Angeles alongside the likes of Taylor Swift.
