"I'm really excited," said Jennie Garth, who plays Kelly Taylor on the show.
Regarding why the deal took so long, Garth said: "I wish I could tell you. I think that whatever it was is resolved, and I couldn't be happier."
The 35 year-old Spelling will be appearing near the end of the current freshman season and might also come back for season 2.
Since the news, Ryan Eggold, who plays Ryan Matthews, is reportedly buying plenty of breath mints in the off-chance that he'll be smooching Spelling on the show.
"It was very nerve-racking kissing Jennie!" Ryan admits. "Because she's Jennie Garth, and all my friends are freaking out."
When asked if Jennie is a good kisser, Ryan exclaimed: "Fantastic."
