Who is Valerie C. Robinson? All About Michael Schoeffling’s Wife

Valerie C Robinson is the wife of Michael Schoeffling, a model and actor. Valerie and her husband Michael have been married for more than 30 years and they have 2 children, Zane and Scarlet Schoeffling. The former American model was one of the most popular actresses in the 1990s, known for movies like Having Babies II, Lottery, One Shoe Makes It Murder, etc.

Michael Schoeffling captured the hearts and minds of the American public with iconic roles like Joe in Mermaids, Jake Ryan in Sixteen Candles, and Kuch in Vision Quests. He got married to the actress during the late 1980s. Let’s find out all about Michael Schoeffling’s wife, Valerie C Robinson.

Valerie C Robinson Grew Up In Pennsylvania

Valerie C Robinson was born Valerie Carpenter Bernstein in Newfoundland, a village in Dreher Township, Wayne County, Pennsylvania. That’s just about the verified available information on the former actress and model’s birth information.

There are unverified sources claiming that the former actress was born on January 25, 1970, but a closer look at the former actress and the timeline of her career shows that a 1960s date would likely be more appropriate.

Valerie has not been forthcoming about her exact date of birth, and this has only served to inflame the speculations regarding her actual date of birth and age. One would also assume that she grew up in Pennsylvania, among other likely scenarios involving her early childhood. The identity of her birth parents or any relative, living or dead, is also shrouded in mystery surrounding her early childhood.

Like almost every aspect of her formative years, the details of Valerie’s formal education background remain unavailable and inaccessible to the media and general public making it somewhat of a challenge to determine exactly where she received a formal education beginning from the elementary level to the college level.

Valerie Robinson Has Been Michael Schoeffling’s Wife For More Than 30 Years

Valerie C Robinson is currently very happily married to her husband, Michael Schoeffling. There is no information available to ascertain the timeline of their relationship, and while the media and a good majority of the general public would love nothing more than to be up to date on the finer details of Valerie’s marital relationship with Michael Schoeffling.

The available information, which shows that the couple had their first child in the late 1980s, and as a married couple for that matter, suggests that a wedding most likely happened a couple of years earlier. Working with that premise would also indicate that Valerie and her husband, in all probability, met and began dating in the early 1980s. Again, it is important to understand that these pieces of information are based purely on conjecture.

Valerie C Robinson and her husband, Michael Schoeffling, have two children together. They welcomed their first offspring in 1989 and named the son they had Zane Schoeffling. Zane’s younger sister joined the family a couple of years later, in 1991. Valerie and her husband named their then-baby daughter Scarlet Schoeffling. Valerie’s children are already past their 30th birthdays, and it will be somewhat a surprise if both children still live with their parents.

The lack of information regarding the whereabouts of Valerie’s children makes it quite impossible to determine if either Zane or his sister, Scarlet, followed in the career footsteps of their parents to become actors. Robinson and Schoeffling have been married for more than 3 decades. While it would be normal for the couple to have had some tough time in the marriage, no single trace of scandal or controversy is recorded about a union steadily approaching its 40th anniversary.

Since she retired from acting, Valerie has stayed away from the spotlight, and her media engagements have reduced or stopped altogether, along with her screen time. She currently enjoys retirement with her husband in her hometown of Newfoundland in Pennsylvania.

Valerie’s acting career began in 1977 when she was handed a minor role in the movie Having Babies II. She played the character of a woman named Terri in the movie, but as previously mentioned, her role in the movie was very negligible. Valerie had to wait for around five years before she got another movie role. Her next silver screen appearance came in the 1982 movie One Shoe Makes It Murder.

A couple of years later, in 1984, she starred in a movie titled Over the Brooklyn Bridge. Valerie landed her first TV series role as Mary Beth Linderman in the series Lottery, where she was limited to a single episode. Five years later, in 1989,  Valerie starred in what is now her penultimate movie, titled Party Hearst. Her last movie appearance came in the 2018 movie titled Awful, where she was cast to play the role of Frances Ledbetter.

Despite her relatively few acting credits, Valerie C Robinson acquired a substantial net worth currently estimated to be around $500k.
