Valerie Bertinelli Opened Up About Her Bond With Eddie Van Halen in a March 2026 Interview
Bertinelli opened up about her bond with Van Halen, whom she divorced in 2007 after 26 years of marriage, during a March 2026 interview with People magazine.
Bertinelli said that while they had their issues, she deeply appreciated the Van Halen guitarist. She also referenced that she spent time with Van Halen, who had battled throat cancer, the year leading up to his 2020 death.
“I can’t help but love the man. I went through so much with him, and I’m so grateful for the last year that we had. There’ll always be a huge part of my heart that contains Ed. He gave me the greatest gift, our son,” said Bertinelli. “Would we have ever been intimate together again? I really don’t think so. But I’ve never loved another man the way I loved Ed. And that’s just the way it is.”
She clarified that her friendship with Van Halen “doesn’t take away the love he had in his second marriage” to Janie Liszewski, whom he wed in 2009, nor does it “take the love away that [she] had in [her] second marriage” to Tom Vitale.
“There is just something about Ed and I that was special,” explained Bertinelli, who finalized her divorce from Vitale in 2022. “And even though we weren’t married any longer, I still loved him. He still loved me, and that’s okay. You can love the father of your child. Isn’t it better than hating him? So yeah, I loved him. [There will] always be a huge part in my heart for him. It doesn’t mean I don’t have room for other love, but I loved Ed and still do.”
