SO terrifying!

On Tuesday, the 52-year-old took to Instagram to share an emotional update after the disorienting accident:
“A 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. We’re okay, but it’s been really overwhelming. We are so grateful and so lucky, because it could have been so much worse.”
Painting a picture of how exactly the crash happened, Tori continued:
“The driver that hit us was speeding, was going crazy, crazy fast. We believe he went through a light, and I’m just really grateful that in a split second — guardian angels were definitely with us that day because in a split second I looked to my right and I saw he was coming full-on, full impact into the side of our car, and I turned 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.”
Thank goodness for her quick reaction time! She continued:
“I just want to thank all of the first responders at the scene and to Inland Valley ER in Wildomar that took such good care of all of the kids and myself.”
Over the weekend, TMZ reported neither Tori, nor any of her kids or their friends, OR the other driver sustained major injuries. Phew! The reality star concluded:
“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. So thank you, everybody. I’m still putting my thoughts together about everything that happened, and just so much gratitude for life, and the bravery of all the kids in the car with what they went through. So thank you to everyone.”

It’s moments like these that really put into perspective how delicate life truly can be! With ex-husband Dean McDermott, Tori shares Liam, 19, Stella, 17, Hattie, 14, Finn, 13, and Beau, 9. Thank goodness they’re all okay!
Following her message, TMZ shared shocking footage from the aftermath of the crash, showing just how high-impact the collision was. In the footage, which was shared on Wednesday, Tori can be seen speaking with officers outside of her gray SUV while all the kids sit on a nearby curb. At one point in the clip, Tori seems to be arguing with the other driver about a “U-turn” as the camera pans over to show the wreckage, including the other car. You can watch HERE.
As for now, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department is investigating the incident.
