Tori Spelling has had what seems like a truly brutal string of bad luck in recent months, but now, it looks like maybe something is going right. The actress and husband Dean McDermott split over the summer after 18 years and five children together. Now it looks like Tori may finally be moving on from her estranged husband with a new man, not long after Dean was spotted out and about with someone new himself. These new romances come at a time when Tori and her kids’ living situation is still very much in upheaval.
Who is Tori’s mystery man? Here’s what we know.

The Daily Mail is reporting that Tori was spotted out with Neuron Syndicate Inc. CEO Ryan Cramer at Los Angeles hotspot Level 8. The news outlet shared numerous photos of the pair kissing and canoodling, and witnesses claimed after they were seen being affectionate with each other, they got in the same car.
Apparently the relationship isn’t as new as it may seem.

Although this may be the first time the two were spotted out in public kissing, a source told People that they “have been dating secretly for over six months.”
If this is true, that would predate the announcement of Tori and Dean’s split by more than a month, but given all the ups and downs in their relationship, it wouldn’t be surprising to find out they’ve been separated for longer than they’ve been willing to admit publicly.
Dean announced the couple’s split in June.

In June, Dean took to Instagram to announce his split from Tori in a post that was quickly deleted.
“It’s with great sadness and a very very heavy heart that after 18 years together and 5 amazing children, that @torispelling and I have decided to go our separate ways, and start a new journey of our own,” he wrote, adding photos of both him and Tori as well as their kids.
“We ask that you all respect our privacy as we take this time to surround our family with love and work our way through this. Thank you all for your support and kindness.”
Dean’s new relationship seems to be going well so far.

In recent weeks, Dean has been spotted around the Los Angeles area canoodling with Lili Calo, who is a senior account executive at Conscious Community Global. The pair were photographed together last month, and her company shared a photo of them together on its LinkedIn page .
Dean and Lili were also seen kissing at Los Angeles International Airport and holding hands at a Department of Social Services office.
Tori was reportedly surprised that Dean’s relationship went public so quickly.

Apparently, Dean and Lili stepping out together came as something of a shock, and Spelling was “a little surprised” seeing them out and about.
“Dean stepping out with a new woman since he hadn’t been seen in a long time is disrespectful to Tori,” a source told OK! Magazine . “He hasn’t been as actively engaged with the family since they separated.”
