"Beverly Hills, 9021" actress Tori Spelling opened up about the time her mom hosted a party for the heir to the British throne.

In a new episode of the "90210MG" podcast that was released on Monday, she spoke about the home that she previously lived in with her mother, Candy Spelling, and her late father, Aaron Spelling, in Los Angeles.

Tori, 48, said that her family moved into a 56,500-square-foot mansion when she was 17 and she lived there for two years before moving out. During her time there, Tori said her mom threw "two or three parties," and one of the first was for Prince Charles.

"Her first party, and one of her only parties, was for Prince Charles," she said. "When he came to town, he wanted to have it there."

The property is currently on the market for $165 million, according to Tori. The home, which was built for the Spelling family and had the nickname "Candyland," was sold to Petra Ecclestone, daughter of former Formula One chief executive Bernie Ecclestone, for $85 million in 2011, the LA Times reported.

The publication added that the property was put on the market again in 2019 and was sold for $119.75 million to an unknown buyer.

Candy Spelling previously shared a photo of herself with Prince Charles at the party on Instagram.

"Aaron and I were honored to host Prince Charles at our home in 1994. I have so many great memories from that special evening," Candy Spelling captioned the post.

Charles embarked on a series of public engagements during his week-long tour of LA in November 1994, including visits to a children's learning center, according to a report in the LA Times after the visit.

The visit came amid his public split from Princess Diana. In June 1994, the prince admitted to having an affair during an interview with documentary filmmaker Jonathan Dimbleby.

Charles told Dimbleby that he had remained "faithful and honorable" to Diana during their marriage "until it became irretrievably broken down, us both having tried."
