Valerie Bertinelli, 63, Shows Pics of Her ‘Overweight’ Body in a Swimsuit, Sparking an Online Stir

At 63, Valerie Bertinelli shared a powerful message about body positivity by posting a swimsuit photo from 2014, weighing 150 pounds on her 5’4″ frame. She boldly declared, “Aging strong not skinny is where it’s at!” The response from her followers has been overwhelmingly positive, praising her authenticity and beauty.

Reflecting on her journey, Bertinelli recalled a pivotal moment when she decided to break free from a lifelong struggle to lose weight. This introspection, influenced by the passing of her ex-husband Eddie Van Halen in 2020, led her to a profound realization about self-worth. In her memoir, “Enough Already: Learning to Love the Way I Am Today,” Bertinelli explores the importance of finding contentment beyond physical appearance.

Bertinelli’s transformation isn’t just about rejecting societal beauty standards; it’s about embracing life’s joys. She advocates for living in the moment, appreciating life’s beauty and simplicity rather than being constrained by weight.

In candid reflections, Bertinelli touches on the challenges of overcoming societal conditioning, recalling her mother’s mistreatment based on her weight. Despite the painful memories, Bertinelli’s message remains hopeful and empowering — realizing that one’s body doesn’t determine lovability.

Now, Bertinelli has learned to be kind to herself regardless of her appearance. She emphasizes that kindness matters more than looks and encourages others to treat themselves with compassion. In a world obsessed with body image, Bertinelli’s journey stands as a testament to the transformative power of self-love beyond the scale.
