Tori Spelling Reveals Lifelong Aversion to Drinking Water

The actress and podcast host attributes her avoidance of water to childhood experiences and an irrational fear of handed-over liquids.

Tori Spelling disclosed on her podcast 'MisSpelling' that she has a strong aversion to drinking water, describing herself as 'like a cacti.'
She traced her dislike of water to childhood experiences, recalling how her mother would crush baby aspirin into Coke syrup, sparking a distrust of liquids handed to her by others.
Spelling admitted she forced herself to drink water during her pregnancies but otherwise opts for alternatives like ginger ale, Diet Dr. Pepper, and coconut water.
The actress also shared an irrational fear of drinks being poisoned, including a recent incident involving her ex-husband, Dean McDermott, offering her ginger ale.
Despite her aversion to water, Spelling joked about her survival, attributing it to being an 'anomaly' and her ability to adapt.
