Aaron Spelling, who died on June 23 at 83, left behind an estate estimated to be worth more than $300 million. But his daughter, Tori, will inherit just a small fraction of that fortune, a source close to the actress tells PEOPLE.

Aaron's will leaves Tori, 33, "less than $1 million" in cash and stocks, says the source. Because Tori was so close to her TV mogul father, the source says, "it's disheartening to her."

The inheritance includes a cash sum that Tori was to receive on Monday, 30 days after her father's death, but the source says that Tori has not yet received the money.

To contest the inheritance, Tori would have to go up against the will's executor – her mother, Candy, 60, with whom she's been feuding.

Meanwhile, Candy's home decorator is set to receive $50,000 from the estate, according to the source. Another person who knows the family says Tori's brother Randy, 27, also recieved about $1 million.

The Tori source says that the actress is in a difficult financial situation. "It's not right that people think she's an heiress," says the source. "It's the furthest from the truth."

That family is so messed up.

hahaha tough luck, time to go to work, stupid bitch.

are you kidding? she's been in two television shows and has done countless movies.

poor little toto. arf!

her mother is a cunt.

i think the inheritance speaks volumes about what a cunt she is.

she's ugly.


enough said.

All ugly people should be poor. Do you eat well?

At least it's happening now when she seems to be working a fair bit, five years ago she'd have been out on her arse. I bet she'll cope, but it's not a nice thing to happen in any family. Even to ugly people!

heh.


"less than a million" is hardly poor.

Generally true, but I hardly imagine she maintains a simple lifestyle, so a few hundred thousand probably isn't that much to the dear wee lass.

true as well,
but you know... its not like she's going to starve.

i thought the will was made by mr. spelling himself?

I think we all hope not. Though she could end up coked out on the streets, or whatever happened to Margot Kidder - it would be an intriguing story.

Or Aaron Spelling..

Thank you...I think what people are forgetting here is that the deceased was the one who made the will in the first place.

Wow, I thought he would have left her more ..

I think that if Tori went out and got herself some serious acting lessons and high quality acting coaches and she changed her appearence to look more real rather than the platinum blonde plastic look and went for roles in more serious movies she could actually have a chance.

No, that's pretty much a mission impossible. I think she'll just have to settle on hosting gigs for E! or have her very own reality series where she could showcase the battle against the mommy dearest for the inheritance. It shall be tentatively called "Rightfully Heir's (as in hers depending on how you decipher it)", I predict.

oh well. i'm sure that hurts for her a bit. i'm sure it's not just a purely money thing, the amount she's getting might make her feel rejected by her dad. i dont know. but i dont feel that sympathetic though. while she's getting under $1 mil, that doesn't mean to say that she only has less than $1 mil in the bank. if i'm not mistaken, she has a rich husband so the flash lifestyle she is living is not just paid for by her own money, i assume. and then, she might have got a hefty allowance from her father while he was still alive. additionally, she has worked herself, she still has the money from that. she is not poor by any stretch of the imagination.

anyway, who knows what financial troubles aaron may have had? he might not have had any, but lord knows if he was actually owing a shitload to lots of people. and she's not the only one getting under $1 mil, so is her brother. and her mother might not be getting that much herself. this will is probably divided up against many, many people - even the fucking decorator gets a slice for fucks sake. aaron earned this money so he has a right to dish it up as he wants to. and he wrote the will so the 'blame' should be with him, not candy.
