Dean McDermott and Tori Spelling are on "good terms".
The 47-year-old star has admitted he "messed up" after having a two-day fling with a waitress late last year but insists the former ‘Beverly Hills 90210’ actress is talking to him, despite his infidelity, and he has called on others to see him as a "good guy" who just made a mistake.
He said: "I messed up. People make mistakes, but those mistakes don’t define them. It’s what you do after the mistakes that really shows your true character.
"So I would like people to take away from all of this that I’m a good guy that messed up that is just trying to put my life back together … our life back together."
The 47-year-old actor and the 41-year-old actress’ lives have played out on her show ‘True Tori’ and while Deans insists "viewers may not be ready for real reality TV", he also wants the public to view him as a "human being" rather refer back to his recent cheating antics at every opportunity.
He added to E!: "I would love for the public to see me as just a human being."
Dean recently admitted he had cheated on Tori – who he married in 2006 – saying he did so because he was feeling insecure and insisting he doesn’t deserve to be called a "monster".
He explained: "The affair was more about how I was feeling about myself than having an affair.
"I messed up and I’m owning up to it and I’m getting help. But to label me a monster or evil is very hurtful."
Last month, Tori was hospitalised after suffering a coughing fit but recently revealed she is "on the mend".
