View StoryBy April, they had gone public with their relationship by stepping out together for a TV taping and on her Instagram. He also shared the news on his Hoarse Whisperings Substack, writing, “I am Valerie Bertinelli’s boyfriend… and that may well be among the most surreal sentences I’ve ever pecked out. But it’s true… and nothing about our actual relationship seems surreal. It just seems… good… lucky… a gift.”
It was a long-distance relationship, however, with Valerie in L.A. and Mike on the East Coast.
Bertinelli told People in April that they never went three weeks without seeing each other, but shared in July that it was getting tougher.
"The summer has been booked full. It is challenging," she explained.
Valerie also said she planned to keep the relationship a bit more private to make it “a little bit more special” moving forward.
The actress was previously married to Tom Vitale from 2011-2022, and Eddie Van Halen from 1981-2007. They welcomed son Wolfgang Van Halen in 1991.
