After a five year separation, and two years of divorce proceedings, rocker Eddie Van Halen and his ex Valerie Bertinelli are finally officially single. Break out the champagne!

The divorce was amicable, and very few details have been released to the public. I'm sure both will be able to find dates by Christmas!

Valerie filed for divorce in 2005, citing, as always, irreconcilable differences. At the time she filed, the couple had already been separated for over five years. They were married in 1981, and have one son who is on tour with his dad filling in for a bass player. As the son is still 16, custody was an issue, though nothing has been reported as far as who has the boy or how this will affect his current touring schedule, if at all.

How odd must it be to be roaming the countryside with your dad by your side. And your dad is now a single dude. I bet that boy sees a lot more than he ever wanted to out of his daddy in the next coming months.
