Tori Spelling & Dean McDermott: Now We Got A State After Us

Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott have been hounded by bill collectors, and the big dog on the block is now the State of California.

Tori and Dean were hit with a tax lien for $259,108.23 for unpaid state taxes from 2014.

The lien would usually mean that their home could be on the hook, but Tori and Dean are renters so doesn't look like they have to worry about the roof over their heads.

The silver lining ... it means they made a lot of money.

We've reached out to Tori ... so far no word back.
