Add Page Six on Google Jennie Garth is “sad” that Tori Spelling has decided to exit their joint “Beverly Hills, 90210” rewatch podcast after six years.
The actress kicked off Friday’s episode of the “9021OMG” podcast, which was released early, saying she needed to address “some housekeeping things.”
“I’m sad that she’s not finishing this out with us. We started this together and I’m sad about that, if I’m honest, which I always am,” Garth explained before adding that she was “really happy for [Spelling] … to choose herself.”
Producer Amy Sugarman, who had joined Garth for the episode, noted that “as everyone knows, Tori has not been here for a bit; she’s not been doing the show for a bit for many reasons.”
“About two weeks ago, she made the decision, which I’m sure was a very tough decision for her, but she let us know about two weeks ago that she had decided she wasn’t going to continue with the podcast,” Sugarman continued.
“This was 100 percent her decision. And look, two things can be true: we can be really bummed and disappointed that she’s not going to do Seasons 9 and 10 with us, with you, while still wanting her to be happy and to be excited for her about the things she’s working on and does want to do.”
Addressing fans’ questions about Spelling’s whereabouts on the podcast, Suagrman added that they “had all decided together that today was the day we were going to tell everybody.”

Garth, 54, finally jumped in to beg audiences to stick around as they would be bringing in special guests to rewatch Seasons 9 and 10 of “Beverly Hills, 90210.”
Just yesterday, Spelling broke the news to her fans via Instagram Live, revealing that she had chosen to step away from the podcast.
Per Entertainment Weekly, the “Scary Movie” actress, 53, told their former co-star Brian Austin Green, who had joined her for the Live, that she wanted to pursue other projects.
Spelling and Garth played Donna Martin and Kelly Taylor, respectively, in the show, which ran from 1990 to 2000. The two reprised their roles in the 2019 revival, “BH90210,” and kicked off the rewatch podcast in November 2020.
Speaking to People about their podcast in October 2020, Spelling said, “We’ve been friends for 30 years. We’ve gone through decades of change as women, we’re moms now and it’s really the one relationship that has stayed all this time!
“Fans always say to us, ‘We can’t believe you’re actually best friends.’ We wanted to do a girlfriends podcast and then blended it with ‘90210’ to do it for the fans. We have a lot to talk about.”
