"I will comment on the last thing [people] would think I have in my freezer, though. And that would that'd be my placenta," Spelling confessed. "Unsure which child. There's 2 in there. So unless I have, like, the biggest placenta in the world, there's 2 vats in there."

According to Spelling, this practice is grounded in folklore and supposed benefits. "This is normal," she asserted. "Because there's all that fancy stuff you're supposed to they say it's good luck to eat it, or it's good luck to bury it, or it's good luck to, you know, have it sent and made into that powder and they put into pills and I'm just too lazy to send it out."

Spelling's preservation extends beyond her own placentas. She revealed that her good friend currently houses the placenta of her youngest son, Beau. "His is still in her freezer," Spelling disclosed. "You want to talk good friends? She came to the hospital the day Beau was born...But because I had a C-section and we had complications and Beau had something [where] we had to stay in the hospital for a bit. I said, ‘Jess, can you take the placenta home because they’ve given it to me and I don’t know what to do with it?’ So she, like a proper best friend, did take it home."

Despite losing track of a few placentas during moves, Spelling remains committed to the benefits of consuming them. "Dean's an amazing chef. So I mean, it was like, a little truffle oil, little salt and pepper. He cooked it and seasoned it and it was actually really good," she divulged about her ex-husband Dean McDermott's culinary contributions.

Spelling's podcast revelations don't end there. She has previously shared that her first breast augmentation surgery took place in an unexpected location: a strip mall. "My first boob job, I had a friend at the time," she recalled. "It was the bad boyfriend I talk about, it was his friend's girlfriend, and she was like, ‘Oh you just have to go to this place.' I went to this doctor, and it was in a strip mall. I can't make this up. I think he was a fine doctor. It was just an outpatient surgery center in a strip mall. I was 19, so I was like, ‘Uh this isn't Beverly Hills,' I was confused."

Spelling's candor about her experiences, from storing placentas to undergoing surgery in unconventional settings, provides a glimpse into the unique path she has navigated as both a mother and a public figure. Whether embraced or questioned, her revelations offer a captivating window into her personal journey.
