    Tori Spelling has never believed she was "good enough"

    The 'Beverly Hills 90210' actress - who has Liam, 17, Stella, 16, Hattie, 12, Finn, 11 , and seven-year-old Beau with estranged husband Dean McDermott - had "so many fears and self-doubts and insecurities" but decided to sign up for 'Dancing With the Stars' because she realised the things she told herself were very different to the positive messages she sends to her kids


    She explained to People magazine: "I never believed I was good enough or deserved much and it's the opposite of what I'm trying to teach my kids.

    "I tell them how much they deserve and they can do anything they want. Then I'm like, 'Wait, I'm telling them this, but I'm not living it.' So this was a conscious choice to be like, "You know what? This is the point.'

    "In my life kind of everything is burned to the ground in my life, not my kids, but personally with other things. And this is the moment to kind of walk the walk. No. Talk the walk, walk the talk."

    While Tori was the first voted off 'DWTS' she insisted her passion for dance is only just "beginning" and she has no plans to give it up.

    She said: "I've dipped my toes into something that's been transformational for me personally, so I'm excited to keep going.

    "Obviously, it won't be in this ballroom weekly, but I'm not going to stop."

    The 51-year-old actress previously admitted she'd always wanted to compete on the show but had rejected offers because she hadn't been "brave" enough to take part.

    She said on her 'MisSPELLING' podcast earlier this month: "Every season I [watched it], and I was like, 'Good for her [or] for him. Oh, god. I wish I was brave enough to do it.' "

    But when she was approached again this year, Tori decided to give it ago despite it being "literally one of [her] biggest fears in life."

    She added: "Watch it with my kids. Watched every season.

    "So I'm pushing through my fears. I'm a work in progress. So I said yes to something that was one of my biggest fears...

    "I have a lot of gratitude to the friends in my life and family that have said to me, We believe in you."
