A Close Mother-Son Bond
That close connection endures. Valerie, with her trademark humor, admits Wolfgang still finds her embarrassing—just like in his teenage years.
“When the eye-rolling stops, I’m not doing my job,” she joked.
She proudly accompanied him to the 2024 Oscars, where he performed. Starstruck by the crowd, she couldn’t help gushing aloud. Wolfgang repeatedly reminded her to use her “inside voice.”
A Loving Mother-in-Law
Valerie adores Wolfgang’s wife, Andraia.
“They’re meant to be together. I adore her,” she shared.
Asked about becoming a grandmother, Valerie said she’d love that—someday. Still, she’s not pressuring her son and daughter-in-law. She’s content just knowing her son turned out to be a kind, grounded man.
Embracing Her Glow-Up Era
Valerie isn’t just a proud mom—she’s thriving herself. On April 30, 2025, she stunned fans by sharing bikini photos and a video of herself taking a cold plunge in her backyard pool.
Wrapped in a striped towel by a sunset-lit infinity pool, she then revealed a fiery red bikini, confidently smiling as she struck playful poses.
Her caption was refreshingly honest:
“My pool is 66°. Along with everything else I’ve been experimenting with, this has helped improve my mood and reduce inflammation.”
In the accompanying video, she dove into the chilly water and swam toward the camera, radiating joy.
Living Life Authentically
Whether she’s sharing tender family moments, poking fun at herself, or embracing bold wellness challenges, Valerie Bertinelli continues to inspire. Her warmth, openness, and humor keep fans coming back for more.
She captioned the third slide—a video of her cat enthusiastically enjoying a treat—with humor:
“Turn sound up for Bubba’s song of love for @inaba_churu 😻.”
Fans Spot the Resemblance
In the first photo, Wolfgang and a black cat gaze calmly at the camera. Valerie’s caption read,
“My two favorite boys 🤫.”
The second slide showed Wolfgang gently cradling a white cat outside. Valerie noted,
“Henry’s little moof just kills me 😹.”
A Son’s Lasting Tribute
Wolfgang often honors his father on social media. On Father’s Day 2025, he shared a home video from 1994, capturing a joyful moment with his dad and their dog. The caption read:
“Happy Father’s Day, Pop. Missing you today and every other day.”
Another shared memory showed young Wolfgang laughing in his father’s lap, with Valerie beside them, all beaming with joy.
