This is interesting ... coincidentally we spotted Tori Spelling and four of her kids out at convenience store Wednesday night stocking up on junk food and just a day later, Tori's hubby Dean McDermott was defending the family against online trolls who body-shamed his offspring.

Tori posted the below pic of her clan, along with fellow Beverly Hills, 90210 alum Ian Ziering and his family and captioned it: "I can’t believe @ianziering and I once played BH teens Steve Sanders and Donna Martin and now we are married to the loves of our lives and between us have 7 kiddos who all adore each other!"

Later, McDermott defended his family Liam, 11, Stella, 10, Hattie, 7, Finn, 6, and Beau, 22 months in the photo taken at a movie screening for A Dog’s Way Home after haters wrote comments saying the kids "look like they feed and clothe themselves" and calling the kids "overweight."

He wrote: "I am absolutely horrified and disgusted by the comments being left about my children. Body shaming and bullying my children??!! What is wrong with you people??!! For your information, we went from a long day at school to the movie. And I don’t know any child that is NOT disheveled at the end of the day. Not to mention that just before this picture was taken, they were wrestling and running around with all the other kids that were at the movie."

He went on ... "So I apologize we didn’t get the iron and steamer out to make them perfect for you. Their kids. They’re messy and dirty. That’s what they do,” he continued. “And what’s wrong with shopping at Target??!! Over half of America shops there. The way they grow out of clothing so quickly is astounding. Are we supposed to shop at Gucci?? These are kids folks. Messy stinky little bundles of fun, laughter and love."

Snap! And we agree -- no need to criticize kids because of their weight or clothing ... BUT ... midnight runs to the Food Mart aren't the best idea either. Maybe this family needs to turn over a new leaf in the new year and work on healthy eating and exercise??? But if they're already doing it, then more power to 'em!
