“Our family is proud,” Spelling, 51, said via Instagram Story on Saturday, January 11. “We need some levity right now. Watch @iamdeanmcdermott’s new movie Polar opposites on Hallmark tonight.”
Polar oppositeswhich premiered Saturday, leads the network’s “Winter Escape”. Movie stars Rhiannon Fish as artist Emma, who sails to Antarctica with engineer Andy (Markian Tarasiuk) in an effort to help his sick father who works as a researcher in the arctic. Emma’s father is played by McDermott, 58.
Spelling and McDermott married in 2004 and separated after 19 years in 2024. Together, they shared five children. (McDermott is also the father of son Jack from a previous relationship.)
Earlier this week, Spelling and the children were forced to leave their home in Los Angeles amid the ongoing wildfires.
“The post I didn’t want to make … days of watching destruction and vigilance and living in fear,” Spelling wrote on Instagram on Friday, January 10. [with] amazing kindness, sad loss, helpful sharing and intercession. I didn’t want to be useless. But last night we were kicked out.”
He added, “I tried my best to run away from there and I could just run away to escape but I had to in the end. My heart goes out to everyone who has lost and suffered so much. But, like a mother bear [with] 5 kids and fur babies your gut tells you when it’s time to take action.”
