Valerie, 61, said she is “so proud” of her son Wolf for his songwriting and Grammy nomination after his father Eddie Van Halen’s death.

Wolf said the experience was “absolutely insane” and that his rocker dad would be “so proud” of him.

Valerie bragged about her son’s song and called it “absolutely stunning and gorgeous.”

At the thought of her son actually getting the Grammy, she took out a tissue and began to break down into tears.

The songwriter was nominated for his rock song Distance.

‘GAME CHANGER’

Wolf continues to pick up the rock torch after his legendary dad passed away two years ago.

Eddie tragically passed away on October 6, 2020, at the age of 65, following a long battle with throat cancer that ultimately moved to his brain.

The Van Halen co-founder passed away at St. Johns Hospital in Santa Monica, California, with his wife Janie by his side.

Valerie and the late Van Halen first met backstage at a Van Halen concert in 1980 and then walked down the aisle eight months later.

Despite what many called a rushed marriage, the former couple were reportedly good together and managed to stay together for over 20 years.

The couple ultimately parted ways in 2001 and finalized their divorce five years later.

CARRYING ON

Valerie had Wolf with Eddie in 1991 in Santa Monica, California.

Wolfgang confirmed the news of his father’s death with a tribute on social media.

“I can’t believe I’m having to write this, but my father, Edward Lodewijk Van Halen, has lost his long and arduous battle with cancer this morning,” he wrote.

“He was the best father I could ever ask for. Every moment I’ve shared with him on and off stage was a gift.
