Van Halen’s Ex-wife Reassures Fans
It has been reported that Eddie Van Halen’s ex-wife Valerie Bertinelli has reassured Van Halen fans the guitarist sounds terrific despite his current medical concerns.
It’s said that Valerie contacted Van Halen immediately after rumours the one-time alcoholic had returned to rehab began to circulate earlier this week.
Valerie has let fans know that Van Halen is in much better shape than she thought he’d be in, although she sheds no light on the exact nature of Van Halen’s medical issue.
She said that “I just talked to him a couple of days ago. I understand the curiosity - I was curious until I talked to him. He sounds terrific. He’s just being very pro-active. It’s not as awful as people think it is. I’m so proud of him right now. He sounded terrific“.
Representatives for the rockers insisted the tour was still on, despite announcing Van Halen “is undergoing a battery of comprehensive medical tests to determine a defined diagnosis and recommended medical procedures“.
