In his new memoir, Matthew Perry claims he kissed Valerie Bertinelli at her home, while she was still married to Eddie Van Halen, lead guitarist of the legendary band Van Halen. Not only that, but Eddie was there, passed out drunk just 10 feet away.
It happened in 1990 when they were on a very short-lived sitcom together called “Sydney”. The show was a sitcom about a woman named Sydney (Bertinelli) who moves her New York detective agency to her hometown, with her younger brother (Perry), a rookie cop, tagging along.
Matthew was seriously into Valerie and said the kiss was a “long, elaborate make-out session,” and says Valerie’s marriage was “troubled” at the time. Unfortunately, the next day on the set, she acted as if nothing had happened. Matthew said he was “devastated” luckily the sitcom got canceled a few weeks later, and he didn’t have to see her anymore.
Valerie may have CONFIRMED Matthew’s story. She posted a TikTok with text saying, quote, “Anyone misbehave in their 20s and early 30s? Are you mortified?”
