While "Tori & Dean: Inn Love,” Tori Spelling and husband Dean McDermott's reality television show, supposedly chronicles how the couple invests Tori's $800,000 inheritance into a Fallbrook, CA bed-and-breakfast, the New York Times breaks the news that the couple is only leasing the inn, nicknamed Chateau La Rue. Despite TV footage showing Spelling agreeing to buy the place, it is still available for $2.6 million. More troubling: Curbed checked out TripAdvisor's reviews of the place and a red-haired woman Patricia (celeb wrangler? bitter housekeeper?) seems to be terrorizing people who show up without reservations.
