The ecstatic post wrapped up with the caption, "second best day of my life," as fans flooded Bertinelli with congratulations and warm wishes.

As OK! previously reported, the nasty road to victory began when the mother-of-one filed for separation from Vitale in November 2021 — with a specific request for her then-husband to not receive spousal support, citing their prenup.

Back in May, Bertinelli legally filed for divorce from Vitale. And while it seemed that the end of their tumultuous divorce was near, the actress found herself back in court just last month to stand before a "private judge" in order to settle "any disputes between the parties related to both parties’ personal property."

Nearly one month later, Bertinelli's hardworking lawyers finally settled all disputes, with the judge declaring the Emmy winner an officially single woman.

The Losing It author was married to Vitale for an entire decade, having dated for several years prior, after her brother Patrick introduced the estranged pair.

Prior to her relationship with the financial planner, Bertinelli was married to famed musician Eddie Van Halen from 1981-2001, although their divorce wasn't finalized until 2007. The parents-of-one remained good friends until the guitarist lost his battle to throat cancer and died on October 6, 2020.
