Personal life

They had one child, Jack Montgomery McDermott (born October 6, 1998) and were in the process of adopting a baby girl when McDermott began his affair with Tori Spelling. After 13 years of marriage, McDermott and Eustace divorced on February 12, 2006, and he married Spelling that May.[2] She later finished the adoption of her daughter Lola Eustace (born July 7, 2004) as a single parent.[3] Although McDermott was awarded joint custody of their son Jack, Eustace moved back to Canada with her children.
