Tony Danza is clearing the air on Valerie Bertinelli’s claim that he missed a date.
Danza, 74, and Valerie Bertinelli, 65, recently made appearances on The Drew Barrymore Show for a cooking segment.
The duo prepared the actor’s so-called “date sauce,” a recipe that Danza admits he never made for Bertinelli because, he says, he never found the note she left in his car with her phone number on it.
“So that’s a sauce you never made for me — even though I left my phone number in your glove compartment,” Bertinelli said, putting an arm around Danza, who laughed in response.
Barrymore chimed in, “Did you ever find Val’s phone number in your glove compartment?”
“No, I didn’t!” Danza replied with a smile. “I think she’s full of crap!” he added, to which Bertinelli laughed.
Bertinelli also admitted that his attempt to woo Danza was never successful. “He never called me!” she said, much to the audience’s shock, with Barrymore adding: “By the way, they never do.”
Bertinelli was married to Eddie Van Halen from 1981 to 2007 and Tom Vitale from 2011 to 2022, and most recently dated writer Mike Goodnough before splitting in November 2024.
Meanwhile, Danza’s previous marriages were to Rhonda Yeoman from 1970 to 1974 and Tracy Robinson from 1986 to 2013.
