Tori Spelling and Brian Austin Green finally break their 18-year silence

Hold onto your hats, '90s TV fans, becauseTori Spelling andBrian Austin Green are finally dishing out the dirt on why they gave each other the cold shoulder for nearly two decades! The former "Beverly Hills, 90210" sweethearts, who once had us all swooning with their on-screen romance, revealed the real reason they stopped talking for a whopping 18 years during a candid chat on the "Oldish Podcast."

Picture this: It's the end of the iconic series in 2000, and Tori is an emotional wreck. She's crying her eyes out, terrified that the end of the show also means the end of her close friendship with Brian. "It felt like going through a divorce," Tori spills, describing the pain of losing someone she saw every day. But, despite Brian's promises to stay in touch, things quickly went south.

Brian, now 51, didn't hold back as he recalled his own efforts to keep the friendship alive. He even went to their mutual friend Vincent Young's house multiple times, hoping to keep the connection strong. But according to him, Tori was nowhere to be found. And if that wasn't awkward enough, fast forward to the 2006 "90210" DVD release party. Tori was there with then-hubby Dean McDermott, and Brian was with Megan Fox. The night took a strange turn when Tori didn't even say hello to Brian. Ouch!

The love lives that tore them apart: Tori and Brian's messy 90210 fallout

At that point, Brian was convinced Tori had decided she didn't want to be friends anymore. He felt like he'd done his part, reaching out, trying to stay connected, only to be left hanging. Tori, for her part, didn't deny it. She admitted Brian's version of events was pretty spot on. But there was more to the story-like their messy post-90210 love lives.

After their on-screen romance fizzled, Tori moved on to date Vincent Young, another "90210" co-star, while Brian started seeing Vanessa Marcil. Tori opened up about how her relationship with Young wasn't exactly a fairytale, describing it as complicated and all-consuming in a bad way. She admitted she pulled away from Brian because he wasn't exactly cheering on her new romance.

And the plot thickens-Tori hinted that she wasn't too thrilled with Brian's relationship with Marcil either, especially since they welcomed their son Kassius in 2002. Watching Brian's life with Marcil unfold from the sidelines was tough, and it only added to the distance between them. But now, with all the past drama laid out, Tori and Brian are finally back on speaking terms.

Brian, who described Tori as a "sister" to him, made it clear that despite everything, he never truly cut her off. And now, with Brian happily engaged to Sharna Burgess and Tori moving on from her marriage to McDermott, the former co-stars have rekindled their friendship, complete with regular phone calls. So, it looks like this Hollywood tale finally has a happy ending!
