Valerie Bertinelli is happily celebrating her 63rd birthday overseas.
Bertinelli took to Instagram on Sunday to share a short video of her suitcase with her location tagged at the Amsterdam Airport.
"I am so over the moon grateful on my birthday this year! I have survived the hardest six years of my life and now," she began her caption.
"I’m in Amsterdam (one of my favorite places on earth with sweet special memories) And on Thursday, I get to watch my son open for Metallica! Life is good," Bertinelli concluded.
The actress and her late ex-husband, Eddie Van Halen, share a son, Wolfgang Van Halen, known as "Wolf" by his fans.
Wolf received his first Grammy Award nomination in April 2022, but didn't take the gold statuette home. The award went to Foo Fighters for "Waiting on a War," but the 31-year-old musician was still "pretty damn grateful."
