TV personality Valerie Bertinelli has just announced that her 10-year marriage to Tom Vitale is officially over. The actress and financial planner tied the knot in 2011 and have two children, Andie and Angela Vitale, together. Bertinelli filed for legal separation from Vitale in November 2021 and officially filed for divorce earlier this year.
Per Explosion, Bertinelli’s divorce from Vitale was long overdue, mainly due to their struggles with property sharing and the dispensation of spousal support. Although they signed a prenup before their wedding, Vitale questioned the validity of the contract and requested $50,000 in spousal support each month.
Before her marriage to the financial planner, the Food Network star was married to Eddie Van Halen. Bertinelli married the late rockstar after less than a year of dating in 1980 and remained married until 2005. Halen is the father of Wolfgang, his son.
