Valerie Bertinelli is saying goodbye.
The Food Network personality offered both good and bad news in a video on her Instagram feed. Bertinelli informed her audience, “I’ve got some good news and some bad news.”
“The good news is that tomorrow at 12 noon on Food Network, the 14th season of Valerie’s Home Cooking starts airing all-new episodes. The bad news is that it’s its final season. Food Network canceled us last summer, I have no idea why. And I didn’t say anything last summer because honestly, I was hoping they would change their mind. But they have not. So this is it, this is the final season.”
Many admirers, including fellow foodie Ree Drummond, a.k.a. The Pioneer Woman, expressed their disappointment in the comments section that this would be the final season of her adored cooking show. “Valerie, I love you so much! I shall be enjoying every episode and, of course, following you wherever your life and work take you,” Drummond added. I appreciate you giving so much of yourself throughout the years. I know I don’t need to say it, but I’m a lifelong Valerie B. fan.
This video was released after Bertinelli spoke more openly about the psychological and emotional abuse she had in a previous relationship, as well as how putting on pants caused a “hidden bruise” to reappear.
The celebrity chef acknowledged she was “giggling because I had a small hidden bruise that was activated today” in the Instagram post published on Super Bowl Sunday. You can undoubtedly hear them since my pants are rubbing together and making this peculiar sound, she continued. I stopped wearing them because I was teased cruelly and told that I couldn’t do anything about it since I was too lazy. If you didn’t, they wouldn’t brush against each other, she stumbled.
“Hidden injuries,” according to Bertinelli, are “something that emotional, verbal, and mental assault does to you. People cannot see [them], but when they are activated, we must deal with [them] every day. I’m so happy that my efforts to promote healing are bearing fruit.
As previously reported by Mamas Uncut, Bertinelli used Instagram to describe some of the pain she went through while married to Tom Vitale. The incident began on Monday when the former One Day at a Time actress tweeted a video of herself lip-syncing the phrase “Oh my god, oh my god, why would you do that? “, followed by the phrase “I don’t know.”
Several of her fans were initially perplexed when she said in the video, “Why did you let them stay after finding the texts?” She appeared to be discussing the sexist and disrespectful texts that her ex-husband Tom Vitale sent her while they were still married. She later provided a video explanation of her Stories.

Three years after her divorce from Eddie Van Halen was finalized, in 2010, Bertinelli became engaged to financial consultant Tom Vitale. On January 1, 2011, the then-happy couple exchanged vows; nevertheless, Bertinelli filed for divorce in November 2021, and the divorce was granted a year later. She has since moved on.
Valerie Bertinelli stated on her Instagram Story how therapy and sobriety have made her relive prior trauma, which is triggering a wide range of emotions. “I’m glad because I feel better physically. I’m sleeping better, but oh boy, I’ve realized that a lot of emotions are emerging,” she added.
She continued by saying that she used to use food and booze to numb those feelings, but those times are gone, just as are the times when she allowed people, like her ex-husband, to treat her badly. About her marriage to Vitale, she remarked, “I have been yelled at so many times and told how overweight and lazy I am.
“I realize…that was just someone projecting whatever they wanted to project onto me. But my part in it all was believing it, and I no longer believe it. Yet, it still doesn’t prevent the hurt and emotions from surfacing, she said, adding that she is ‘feeling the feelings and letting them go. allowing them to speak.”
Don’t let them steal your joy and happiness with the foolish things they say about you, she urged her fans as she concluded her Instagram rant. Don’t believe it, don’t give it any of your attention, and don’t listen to it. “It isn’t true. There is an attempt to dull your brightness. F— ’em. Beam brilliant, she commanded.
Day 31 of Valerie Bertinelli’s Alcohol Purification Celebration
Valerie Bertinelli celebrated Day 31 of “Dry January,” a monthlong abstinence from alcohol, on January 31 by posting on Instagram. She seemed to be walking somewhere and even mentioned that she would continue the cleanse for a little while longer because she had a dinner date on Saturday.
“Happy ‘Dry January’ final day. January 31 has arrived. Nonetheless, I guess I’ll abstain from alcohol tomorrow as well. Given that I have a dinner date on Saturday, I suppose I’ll have a cocktail. But other than that, I believe I’ll continue it for a little while more. How are you doing? With a wide smile, she stated in the video.
Bertinelli also discussed all the healing she has been doing recently on her TikTok account – yes, she is active there as well. One video showed her shortly after completing a “Rolfing” session, which is a type of bodywork that “reorganizes the connective tissues, known as fascia, that pervade the entire body. She appeared worn out.
“I think there’s a really useful release that occurs because a lot of emotional suffering is kept in the body. And I’m trying to recover from it in every manner possible, including Rolfing, meditation, writing in a journal, and counseling. And I enjoy telling you guys about it because I know a lot of you can relate to what I’m going through,” she continued.
