Seems
Candy Spelling is ready to make nice with her estranged daughter
Tori.
"I love you, and I always will," she tells her in a new interview with
USA Today.
Candy's remark comes a week after she
penned a scathing note to Tori, 36, on her website, slamming her for treating her children, Liam, 2, and Stella, 1, as "reality show props."
Take a peek at Tori and husband Dean McDermott's family photo albumShe said she was just angry at the negative way she was portrayed on Tori's Oxygen reality show
Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood, which Candy, 63, called "scripted."
On the show, Tori laments that her mom was a no-show at Stella's birthday party. "I'm mad that I actually got sucked back into holding out hope once again after 36 years," she cries. (Candy has maintained that she didn't want her reunion with her daughter to be filmed.)

So when putting together her recent book
Stories From Candyland -- which featured stories written by friends and son Randy -- she didn't even bother asking Tori for a submission.

In the book, she wrote a letter to her grandchildren because she "wanted them to know some of how their mother grew up, and some of our wonderful memories."
"I don't really know what she tells her children about me, and it was important for me to say something positive to them that someday they may read," she said. "I'm hoping that someday they see a different side than what they may have been told."

"It could be years of disappointment. Maybe someday she'll get it," Candy tells USA Today. "She's my daughter. I may not approve of everything she does, but I love her."
