Valerie Bertinelli’s New Adventures in Television
While the specifics of Valerie’s new project remain under wraps, it’s no secret that she’s been keeping busy. Recently, it was announced that the Hot in Cleveland star is joining The Drew Barrymore Show as a lifestyle expert. Can you picture the two of them working together? Valerie couldn’t be more thrilled.
“I absolutely adore her,” Valerie gushed to People in September 2024. “And all the people that work there are so flipping cool.” She added, “I’ll be going to New York a lot to hang out with Drew and see where that takes me.” At the time, Valerie was dating East coast-based writer Mike Goodnough, but they’ve since parted ways after he posted cryptic quotes on Instagram.
Valerie’s new role comes after her departure from the Food Network, where she hosted Kids Baking Championship and other shows for several seasons. In January 2024, she expressed her gratitude for the network in an emotional Instagram video. “Without sounding like a drama queen, the show saved my life,” she shared. “Working with all of those wonderful people and feeling productive, knowing I could spread some kindness—it helped me. It was like a flotation device. So it really hurts that I won’t be able to go back and see everybody and say, ‘Hey, I made it through.’”
In a post on X, Valerie clarified that she harbors no hard feelings toward the Food Network. “I enjoyed every single moment I worked for them, and they are all lovely, kind, hard-working people,” she said. “And I understand business is business. But I won’t tolerate lies. I am a lot of things, but I am not greedy, nor am I a liar.”
