Valerie Bertinelli Divorcing Eddie Van Halen

LOS ANGELES - Valerie Bertinelli and her rock star husband, Eddie Van Halen, are divorcing after 24 years of marriage, Bertinelli’s publicist confirmed Tuesday.

“Yes, that’s true. They have been separated for four years and it’s amicable,” Bertinelli spokeswoman Heidi Schaeffer told The Associated Press. She said the actress would have no further comment.

A divorce petition that Bertinelli, 45, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday cited irreconcilable differences. msnbc

Ah, the good old days. I remember when Van Halen was the hottest band on the planet. Now, they are so desperate to find a lead singer, they are apparently following in Rock Star:INXS's footsteps. Sad.
