Ok, all you Hallmark movie fans… this is not a drill. I have a fun little role in one of Hallmark’s latest movies, Kentucky Roses. Several of you have reached out to tell me you saw it and I appreciate that so much! Check it out on Hallmark+. You won’t believe how this one ends!😉 #hallmark #hallmarkmovies #kentuckyroses
Happy Mother’s Day to the one who is always up for an adventure, a game of rummikub or to help me with an audition. Thank you Mom! I love you! 💕 @nt0007 #happymothersday
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess named Leigh-Allyn Baker. She went to her (Kentucky) castle to accept the honor of being named a distinguished woman of faith. She took her sidekick, Terri. Honor was given and much fun was had. See last pic for photographic evidence. #sheleads #sheleadskentucky #kentuckycastle #lexington #kentucky @l_a_baker_13
Farmer Dave took me on a cruise with a duck. We didn’t see a cow all week, but we did see a shark, a stingray and a sea turtle! #disneycruiseline #disneydream
It seems like a dream, but two weeks ago, I was in Los Angeles working on the Oscars. I’m always so grateful to be a part it all. A few highlights from this year…
During rehearsal, Robert Downey, Jr. and Chris Evans presented me and my co-winner with an Oscar for Best Screenplay.
During the rehearsal for the In Memoriam segment for Rob Reiner, I was standing in for Daphne Zuniga who was in The Sure Thing, when I looked to my right and there was Annette Bening and Kathy Bates.
Host, Conan O’Brien, was always friendly. I gave him a high five one day as I was walking by him. In hindsight, he may have just been waving to me, but he got a high five regardless.
Lastly, I was walking outside the Kodak Theater one day with my sunglasses on and a guy walking towards me stopped and said, “You’re Valerie Bertinelli!” I just smiled and kept going. #oscars #redcarpet #hollywood
How was I to know that when I met Leigh-Allyn over a decade ago on a movie set (2nd pic is from that day), that I met my best friend. We laugh together (a lot) and cry together (as needed) and live life together. She makes me better. She is strong, faithful, loving, joyful, smart… I know that our friendship is because of divine intervention. Thank you, God, for the blessing of Leigh-Allyn in my life.
Happy Birthday to America’s mom and my sister!#leighallynbaker #happybirthday @l_a_baker_13
A huge THANK YOU to my cousin in law, Rick Minton, for these wonderful photos from the premiere of Christmas in Frankenmuth! It was like having my own personal paparazzi only without the stalking. After the limited theatrical release in Michigan, the movie is scheduled to be released on streaming services for Christmas in July 2026. I can’t wait for everyone to see it! #christmasmovies #michigan #christmasinjuly
