    Tori Spelling has claimed her dog chewed a "severed human toe" while staying at a "prestigious" hotel

    The 52-year-old actress was away with then-husband Dean McDermott trying to have a relaxing evening in their room when they were horrified to discover their pooch Musso had human remains in his mouth


    Speaking on her MisSpelling podcast, Tori said: "One time when Dean and I were together, we were in Toronto, and we were filming...[and] we had two days off.

    "So we're like, 'Oh, let's go stay at this amazing Victorian hotel or something.' So we went and stayed at this hotel, and I think it was me and Dean and my dog."

    "And it was like the most prestigious hotel in Toronto and old school and beautiful. And we were like, okay, we've been working hard...[so] we ordered room service and we were gonna watch a movie.

    "And I'm not even sure how we found it, but we found a toe. Plot twist. Didn't see that one coming, did you?"

    "Musso found something, and we were laying in bed watching a movie, and we just finished dinner and we found something, and he was chewing on something at the end of the bed.

    "And we're like what does he have? And we kinda went back and forth, like, did he get our food? Like, did he find a bone here? Like, what is he chewing on?

    "I grabbed it out of his mouth, and that's when I found it was a severed human big toe and the creepy part is it wasn't that old."

    Tori noted the toe was not "that decayed" and had been "precisely chopped off".

    She added: "And if I remember correctly, it was definitely, I think, a male big toe, but it was chopped off, and it wasn't decaying. And the nail bed was fine."

    Tori and Dean - who split in 2023 - reported the shocking incident to the hotel but claimed staff didn't seem too concerned.

    She said: "The hotel kind of had no reaction. They were like, 'Oh, we're so sorry.' So we, like, put it in a napkin from our dinner and Dean brought it down to them.

    "But you guys, we never got - I would have been horrified, I would have been like, 'I'm so sorry, the whole stay is free' or I don't even know how you make up for having a human toe in somebody's bed.

    "But all I know is I think they gave us a credit if we ever stayed there again. Ever stayed there again? Never going to stay there again."

    Despite the grim discovery, the couple opted to stay in their room.

    She said: "We didn't move rooms. I can't even remember why we stayed in that room. I think it was late and we were just so tired from working.

    "We're like, turn a blind toe to it and just move on."

    But the former Beverly Hills, 90210 actress joked she does have one regret about the incident.

    She said: "Oh my god, I've always wanted to solve a murder. I've always been into crime and stuff. That could have been my one chance to put in a Ziploc bag to go to the police station, and I could have solved a murder. Oh, I missed out."
