“Tori still has major trust issues. Part of their relationship was never fully repaired after he was unfaithful,” the source added. “They’ve been living separate lives. They will still have family meals and occasional outings, but it’s for the kids.”

Earlier this week, the actress posted a picture of herholiday card featuring her five childrenbut McDermott was not featured in the photo.

McDermott’s absence from the family snapshot comes a few months after Spelling hinted that she and her husband — whom she married in 2006 — were experiencing some marriage trouble.

Last month, the actress chatted with PEOPLE aboutnavigating life with five kids, sharing it “takes a village” to balance life as a working mom.

“A lot of times, I find myself trying to do everything myself,” she admitted. “I’m still a work in progress.”

However, the star said she has a “great friend group that I definitely can call and be like, ‘Hey, can you help me? I need support.’ And I think that’s always important, too.”

“It’s really hard for me because I definitely grew up in a family where we had a lot of support around. I grew up with a nanny full-time, so I was always that girl that was like, ‘When I have kids, I’m going to do it all myself,’ " she said. “So I still do it all, but I’m still working on that. It’s okay to ask for help.”
