Eddie and Valerie Jump ... Out of Marriage

Posted Dec 21st 2007 1:35PM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has confirmed that rocker Eddie Van Halen and actress/Jenny Craig pitchwoman Valerie Bertinelli are officially single. Why can't this be love?

Sources close to Ed and Val tell TMZ that the divorce was amicable; they still get together with each other (and their new squeezes) -- and they're both devoted to raising their 16-year-old son, Wolfgang.

Bertinelli originally filed in December of 2005. The two had been married since 1981! Their son is currently on tour with dad's band.

It's been a crappy couple of weeks for Eddie -- just 10 days ago, a water main burst near his home, sending thousands of gallons of water into his front yard.

Last March, Eddie checked himself into rehab, delaying the start of the Van Halen tour.

5. She looks the same. When they got married, they looked like they were related. Now he looks like crap. Love his music, though!

6. Dyna you are right. When they were young they looked like twins. You can tell who has hit it hard all these years though. Good luck to both of them.

8. Eddie's a badass guitarist and musician but wish he was still cute. don't really care what she's doing esp if she's dating a wife-beater.

13. Wow, Eddie looks so old and haggard -- good thing he's still got his talent. Valerie looks so good. I didn't know her boyfriend was a former wife beater -- hope she doesn't marry him. I actually thought they were divorced a long time ago. Well, after 20 years...no one can say that didn't try.
