Dean McDermott appeared to be taking his relationship with his girlfriend Lily Calo to a new level on Wednesday when he was spotted moving his possessions into her home just three months after their romance was revealed.
The 56-year-old actor was pictured lugging some heavy boxes out of his SUV and into his girlfriend’s home, though he got some help from the 32-year-old, who is a senior account executive at Conscious Community Global in LA.
The loved-up couple were getting more serious than ever after DailyMail.com exclusively broke the news of the relationship in October, when the new lovebirds were pictured holding hands on a trip to a welfare office in Los Angeles.
Dean appears to be shoring up his relationship with Lily after pouring his heart out to DailyMail.com and describing the final blow-up fight that signaled the end of his tumultuous marriage to Tori Spelling.
He seems to have found some much-need stability with his new love after his estranged wife Tori became functionally homeless when she moved out of the family home into an RV — which she said was due to a dangerous mold infestation — before she evacuated a subsequent house.

She and her children quickly moved out of the new home after an armed neighbor barricaded himself in a nearby house and took a hostage.
Tori and the kids were forced to quickly evacuate the house by a SWAT team responding to the frightening standoff.
Things seemed to be looking up for Dean, though, and he made it clear that he couldn’t contain his passion in photos obtained later in October by DailyMail.com showing him planting a romantic kiss on his new love before dropping her off at the airport.
For their moving session on Wednesday, both Dean and Lily were dressed casually for some manual labor.
Dean stuck with a relaxed look featuring a white V-neck T-shirt covered by a blue, white and brown button-up plaid shirt that he left open.
He paired the look with some rugged straight-cut jeans that he rolled up at the hems, along with black work boots.
The former reality star showed off his tattoos with his rolled-up sleeves, and he looked smart with a short haircut and a well-maintained salt-and-pepper beard, along with tasteful black-frame eyeglasses.
Lily looked too cool for school in her thick olive-colored jacket.

Dean and Lily appeared to be using his black SUV to ferry boxes of his possessions to her home.
Before they started the unpacking, she was also seen driving to the home in her own vehicle.
This appears to be the first time that Dean has been spotted since his exclusive two-part interview with DailyMail.com from mid-November.
During the sit-down, he admitted that his relationship with his ex Tori Spelling had reduced them to living like ‘roommates’ by the time they called it quits.
Dean admitted that he had been treating his stress from the failing marriage and their money woes by drinking and using drugs alone every night, sometimes to the point of passing out.
And when he was conscious he could fly into an alcohol-fueled rage at Tori that left their family frightened.

Dean subsequently spent much of the summer of 2023 in rehab, and he even stayed apart from his family over the Thanksgiving holiday to stay at a sober living facility.
The Canadian actor, who shares five children with his estranged wife — Liam, 16; Stella, 15; Hattie, 12; Finn, 11; and Beau, six — made it clear that he still ‘loves’ his wife, even as he is quickly setting up a new life with Lily.
‘It was a total fairytale,’ he gushed while looking back on his nearly two-decade marriage. ‘I mean, it was a beautiful love story. Love at first sight and getting married in the most beautiful way possible.
‘It was a dream come true,’ he continued. ‘And then we had to come back to Hollywood and deal with all the s*** people gave us.’
Despite his split from the Beverly Hills, 90210, star, Dean thought he had still gotten the best of his critics after they stayed together for ’18 years,’ even though their critics only gave them ‘six months.’
They weren’t easy years, though. Dean described how he and Tori hadn’t regularly shared a bedroom since 2017, due to her insistence about letting animals stay in the room.
Although they have standard pets, including dogs, the animal guests became increasingly absurd when a chicken and a pig were allowed to stay in the bedroom.
In his DailyMail.com interview, Dean also delved into his nonexistent relationship with Tori’s mother Candy Spelling.
He claimed she had never had any interest in getting to know him, and he said their family had never benefited from financial assistance from her, even though Tori’s father Aaron spelling only left her $800,000 of his $500 million fortune.
‘I think the real shame is for her to miss out on these wonderful children because they are really beautiful children,’ he said after sharing that his children with Tori have grown up while seeing very little of their grandmother. ‘They’re very gifted and special.’
The television actor described a final drunken fight with Tori in which he also raged against the children, and she recounted seeing the ‘final flicker of the flame go out in her eyes,’ signaling that their marriage was beyond repair.
Afterward, he announced the end of the marriage on social media, a post that shocked Tori when she saw it with no advance warning.

In his shame, he said he took ‘six or seven Ambien’ after consuming a considerable amount of alcohol, and he went to sleep hoping that he ‘would not wake up’

As Dean has been moving on, Tori also seems to have found love again after she was seen kissing the advertising agency CEO Ryan Cramer.
In the same interview, Dean revealed that he met Lily through a joint project at the charity Conscious Community Global, where she works as an account manager.
Since moving on, he says he only speaks with Tori via text message now.
