Biography

About Valerie Bertinelli

Edited by the community

With her warm brown eyes, natural brown hair, and an average build, Valerie Bertinelli carries the approachable charm that first made her a household name in the 1970s. She stands 5'5" and has a real, natural figure, which has endeared her to fans across generations. Her American, Caucasian heritage is as classic as her straight style.

Born in Wilmington, Delaware on April 23, 1960, Bertinelli began acting in 1971 and has remained active for over five decades. She rose to fame as a teenager on the sitcom One Day at a Time, a role that earned her two Golden Globe Awards. Later, she starred in Touched by an Angel and Hot in Cleveland, receiving a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for the latter. In 2012, she received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Beyond acting, Bertinelli became a beloved Food Network host, fronting Valerie's Home Cooking and Kids Baking Championship, winning two Daytime Emmys. Her personal life included a high-profile marriage to Eddie Van Halen, with whom she has a son, Wolfgang. She also married Tom Vitale from 2011 to 2022. A small "W" tattoo on her left ankle commemorates her son's name.
