Valerie Bertinelli preached acceptance with her latest mirror selfie featuring her in underwear. She posed in a hotel bathroom wearing a black bra and matching panties, while holding a product in one hand. “At some point, I will talk about the madness my body has been through this year,” she started.
Valerie highlighted her acceptance and gratitude for every lump and sag on her body, adding that she is grateful to be in downtown Manhattan as she gets ready to color her hair roots that night. Fans were touched by her message and commended the bravery it took to post herself bare.

Valerie’s post got over 120,000 likes and thousands of comments from her fans and critics. “You look great! Thank you for sharing. You are definitely an inspiration to us all,” someone commended her, while another wished they could confidently rock a two-piece like her. Valerie’s celebrity friends, Rosie O’Donnell, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Kristin Chenoweth, also cheered in the comments.
A third fan was pre-defensive about any trolling against Valerie, promising to “go mamma bear on anyone that hints differently” about how amazing she looks. “Funny, if she were on a beach, in a bikini, nobody would care…,” a troll replied.
Valerie Bertinelli talks about aging
Valerie has never shied away from the topic of aging, as she mentioned earlier this year that she is embracing her graying hair. She spoke about the use of filters, adding that she avoids using them because some users get critical when she does.
The 64-year-old admitted that her body is slowly adjusting to changes, such as being unable to run upstairs or get up from doing squats without support. Being a yoga lover, she also finds it difficult to do her child’s pose these days and is learning to take things easy.
