While 11/11/11 is lucky for you and me, 11/22/22 is lucky for Valerie Bertinelli. That is because Tom Vitale signed the divorce papers today, and now they are no longer married.
The actress made a video and said with pure joy, “On 11/22/22, I am officially f**king divorced! Happily divorced. I’m divorced. Finally! It’s finally over.”
Bertinelli and her ex-husband were married in January 2011. She filed for legal separation last November and in May, she filed for divorce.
Now, she is free to marry again. But I think that is the last thing on her mind. She just wants to celebrate with her son Wolfie, who she is going to visit.
Matthew Perry has a tell-all coming out, and he is telling all in Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing. He talks about his drug use, getting clean, and his torrid affairs with legendary actresses like Julia Roberts.
However, one of them was an affair because the actress was married at the time that they got together for one night.
Perry and Valerie Bertinelli starred in the failed sitcom Sydney, and the actor wanted to be more than friends with his co-star, who was married to Eddie Van Halen at the time.
According to an excerpt that Page Six got their hands on, Perry fantasized about her leaving her husband for him.
Then one night, he was at the Van Halens, and the guitarist drank too much, so he passed out. Perry decided to seize the night, and the two had a makeout session while her husband lay passed out 10 feet away from them.
That was their one and only encounter, and the show was cancelled four weeks after that fateful night.
Is this story true? Bertinelli posted a video on TikTok and wrote, “Anyone misbehave in their 20’s and 30’s. Are you mortified?” The actress seems embarrassed by what happened that night.
I say, “It happens. We all misbehave.” Even when we get older. I know I am still a bad girl! It is human nature to be bad because it feels so good.
The important thing is that we learn from our mistakes.
Valerie Bertinelli and Mackenzie Phillips started playing sisters on One Day at a Time over 45 years ago. And even though all of that time has passed, the two actresses are still as close as they were back then.
So what brought them together? They came to celebrate the man who made them sisters, 100th birthday.
That special, which also includes a Facts of Life Reunion, will air later this year on ABC.
In 2017, Netflix remade One Day at a Time, and a few of the original stars like Mackenzie Phillips has guest-starred on the show. However, her younger TV sister, Valerie Bertinelli, has yet to make an appearance on the Pop TV show.
The actress sat down with Entertainment Weekly, and explained why that is the case. It is simple, nothing more than scheduling issues. They came close once, but it was too tight to work out. Since she hasn’t acted in the five years since Hot In Cleveland ended, she wants “to be able to really be there with them and soak it all in.”
The actress is hoping that when we all get back to work, she can work with them. She wants to do it because she said, “I really love all those great people behind the show. What they’ve done is really amazing. I want to do it so bad!”
I am sure they want her just as badly. Hopefully, they will make it work out! I would love to see her back on the show that made her famous.
As we know, Lori Singer got the part of Ariel in 1984’s Footloose. Before she got the job of a lifetime, there were two other actresses who were also up for it. They are Fast Times at Ridgemont High’s Jennifer Jason Leigh and One Day at a Time’s Valerie Bertinelli. The latter has her theory why she didn’t get it. She told Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live yesterday that she can’t dance. That as we all know, is a key requirement for that classic movie.
Proving she might be Hot In Cleveland, but she is not hot on the dance floor. Now I am going to spend the whole day pondering what it would have been like if she got the starring role in that film.
