    Valerie Bertinelli has struggled to keep her own relationship rule

    Valerie Bertinelli discusses the challenges of maintaining her three-week rule in her relationship with Mike Goodnough.


    The 64-year-old actress started dating lifestyle writer Mike Goodnough, 53, in March and noted at the time that she had created a "three-week rule" whereby they would never go longer than that period of time without seeing each other but admitted that has been a "challenge" for them both. She told People: "It's been challenging. The summer has been booked full. It is challenging!" The former 'Touched by an Angel' actress - who was initially married to late rock star Eddie Van Halen from 1981 until 2007 and has Wolfgang, 33, with him but was then married to Tom Vitale from 2011 until 2012 - also noted that this time round she is ready to keep her relationship more private. She said: "A part of me is just like, it's been so public and now I'm trying to pull back and make it so much less public, and try to keep some stuff for us now. It's like, 'Oh, but, yeah, I let the cat out of the bag.' I don't know. I would like to start keeping it between us and make it a little bit more special." "Even though I was so public with it, now part of me wants to just protect. He's terrific." Valerie previously explained that upon one of their first meetings earlier this year, she knew that everything felt "incredibly right" as she embarked on her new relationship. She said: "I'm driving up to meet him, and he's already at the hotel standing outside. I just jump out of the car, and I run to him, and I hug him. It was the best hug. I immediately felt like I was home. This is where I belong, in this man's arms. It all feels incredibly right."
