“Hi, I just wanted to reach out to everyone. This took me a bit to post, because as most of you know, four of my kids and I and three of their friends were in a car accident a few days before Easter in Temecula,” she stated in the clip. “And we’re OK, but it’s been really overwhelming. We are so grateful and so lucky because it could have been so much worse.”
Spelling went on to describe the frightening moment leading up to the crash, recalling how quickly everything unfolded. She said she noticed the other car “speeding, going crazy, crazy fast” and that it “went through a light” before hitting them.
“Guardian angels were definitely with us that day because in a split second I looked and saw he was going to full on impact into the side of our car,” she said. “And I turned hard left as hard as I could, as fast as I could, to avoid as much impact on the children as possible. He spun us out.”

Despite the chaos, Spelling made sure to thank those who stepped in to help. She gave a heartfelt shout-out to “all the first responders” who “took such good care of the kids.”
“I’m grateful to everyone who has reached out and repeatedly checked on us and offered to do whatever we needed to get us through this and all the blessings everyone has sent,” she shared. “Thank you, everybody. Still putting my thoughts together about everything that happened and just so much gratitude for life and the bravery for all the kids in the car for what they went through. So thank you to everyone.”
