Valerie Bertinelli: Eddie's Health Issues Are Nobody's Business
Originally posted 03/06/2008 06:35AM
She may have written a tell-all book, but Valeire Bertinelli was suddenly very tight-lipped Wednesday night when asked about ex-husband Eddie Van Halen's mystery illness.
"I really don't think it's anybody's business," the Jenny Craig spokeswoman, 47, told PEOPLE at a Cincinnati book-signing for her new memoir, Losing It: And Gaining My Life Back One Pound at a Time. "He's being proactive and that's good."
The 53-year-old Van Halen guitarist "is undergoing a battery of comprehensive medical tests," the band announced on its Web site Monday. (The rocker, who has a long history of drug and alcohol abuse, previously battled cancer. In 2002, he announced he'd beaten the disease.) As a result of the star's undisclosed illness, they cancelled four concerts, including one slated for Wednesday in Cincinnati.
In fact, Bertinelli said she's just as disappointed as other Van Halen fans. "We scheduled the signing early so we could make the concert in time," she said. (Her teenage son, Wolfie, is touring with dad as the band's bassist.)

Confessions of Two Ex-Fat Actresses
Originally posted 08/09/2007 12:00PM
"Is that really me? Did you stretch me somehow?" Valerie Bertinelli stares at the image of herself on a photographer's monitor in disbelief. He tells her no, he hasn't used any computer tricks; rather, after losing 30 lbs. in just over four months as a Jenny Craig spokeswoman, she really is that slim. Hearing that, Bertinelli, 47, tears up a bit. "I want to get to the size I was when [my son] Wolfie was in kindergarten 10 years ago," says Bertinelli, who split with hubby Eddie Van Halen in 2001. (For the past three years she has been dating Tom Vitale, 46, a financial planner.) "I know I can do that. I hope!" Cheering her along every step of the way? None other than fellow Jenny Craig pitchwoman Kirstie Alley, 56, who says she has kept off the 75 lbs. she dropped on the plan. As stars now known as much for the fluctuations of their scales as for career highs like One Day at a Time and Cheers, Bertinelli and Alley convened in L.A. for a frank conversation with PEOPLE's Maureen Harrington about what it feels like to be big – literally big – in Hollywood.
