Valerie Bertinelli talked about adjusting to life without her ex-husband Eddie Van Halen. The rocker sadly died in October after a battle with cancer. Valerie and Eddie share their only son, Wolf. She appeared for the first time on television on The TODAY Show after his death. Even though they were divorced, they remained very close.
