Valerie Bertinelli<\/strong> got emotional when she was surprised by two of her Hot in Cleveland <\/em>co-stars, Wendie Malick<\/strong> and Jane Leeves<\/strong>, in a teaser clip for the Monday, September 22, episode of The Drew Barrymore Show<\/em>.<\/p>\n In the clip shared via Instagram<\/a> on Friday, September 19, Bertinelli, 65, gushed that Hot in Cleveland<\/em> was “hands down, my favorite experience in my working life.” She continued, “To work with those three women that I got to work with<\/a> \u2014 and there was not a diva on the set.”<\/p>\n Bertinelli starred on the TV Land sitcom, which ran from 2010 to 2015, alongside Malick, 74, Leeves, 64, and the late Betty White. Hot in Cleveland <\/em>followed three middle-aged best friends from Los Angeles, who make an emergency landing in Cleveland, Ohio, on their way to Paris. After falling in love with the city, they decide to stay in Cleveland because they’re still viewed as hot.<\/p>\n “We’d hang out in the morning and just talk before rehearsing,” Bertinelli told host Drew Barrymore<\/strong> about her relationship with her co-stars.<\/p>\n Barrymore, 50, then announced the surprise by stating, “Well, then, without further ado, Jane Leeves and Wendie Malick.” Bertinelli gasped and cheered as the two actresses appeared from behind a curtain and walked into the audience. Before they could make it to the stage, Bertinelli ran towards Leeves and Malick<\/a> and embraced them in a group hug.<\/p>\n Fans will get to see the full reunion take place on the next episode of The Drew Barrymore Show<\/em>.<\/p>\n Parade Daily\ud83c\udfac\u00a0<\/strong>SIGN UP for Parade\u2019s Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\ud83c\udfac<\/strong><\/p>\n Bertinelli previously revealed the biggest lesson she learned on the show in a clip shared by The Drew Barrymore Show<\/em>‘s Instagram in August. \u201cThe best piece of advice is from Betty White,\u201d Bertinell shared. \u201cShe really taught me about gratitude. I thought I was grateful. She was just living, breathing gratitude, every second of her life, every moment I was around her.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cShe was grateful for the good, the bad, the ugly, all of it. And I have learned through going through really challenging things of the past five years, I\u2019m grateful for the hard stuff,” she said of White, who died in December 2021 at the age of 99. It\u2019s sucked, and I wish I didn\u2019t have to go through it, but there was no other way for me to learn a better way. And I think mistakes are there purposefully to help us learn what not to do.\u201d<\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Sep 19, 2025, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
