‘I fell in love when I least expected it!’ the brunette beauty revealed to the magazine.
“I’m in love,” Bertinelli added. ‘It’s a seesaw of emotions because I was convinced that I would never fall in love again.
“I was supposed to die with my six cats and my dog and live very happily alone for the rest of my years; I’m fine on my own,” she said.
‘My belly is spinning. This didn’t have to happen.’
She then shared: ‘It’s crazy the comfort level. She feels incredibly good.’
Valerie added that she has been working on herself with therapy and long walks with her dog.
And her new book Indulge pushed her to be more open. “The cookbook was an outgrowth of the emotional and mental healing I’ve been doing,” she said.
‘First came work. Why I thought he didn’t deserve to be loved. Why was I using food to numb my feelings. All the drama and trauma I hadn’t dealt with…with Ed and my last marriage.

“I don’t want to say too much, but I feel incredibly blessed and lucky to have met him, because I didn’t expect it!” she added.
“He wasn’t on my radar. He was going to die with my six cats and my dog and he would be incredibly happy doing it,’ the One Day At A Time star confessed. ‘So this came out of nowhere, and I’m grateful that it did. It’s very special.’

Regarding her decision to announce the relationship on Instagram this week, she marveled: ‘What was I doing?… I just can’t help it. When I’m happy, everything takes over and he is one of the main reasons.
‘I really want women and men to understand that it’s the work you do (on yourself) that can lead you to meeting someone like I’ve been lucky enough to meet now. This wouldn’t have happened three years ago, four years ago, last year; It wouldn’t have happened. And I feel incredibly lucky to have met him and made a connection with him.”
