The pair entered their union in 2011 with a prenuptial agreement in place, which Vitale attempted to challenge the validity in June.
At the time, he also requested spousal support and hoped to block Bertinelli from requesting support from him.
But it was noted Wednesday that the neither Bertinelli nor Vitale will receive spousal support.
TMZ adds that Vitale must vacate the Malibu home he and the star once shared by the end of the year.
If he does not, Vitale must pay rent starting January 1, 2023, with the agreed upon amount being ‘$50K/month and/or $1,666/day.’
But if Bertinelli does not pay him the $2.2 million on time, Vitale will be able to remain in the home for each day she is late.
Bertinelli was beyond thrilled to share with her Twitter followers that she is now ‘officially f**king divorced’ on Tuesday.
In a jovial video shared to her account Tuesday, an elated Bertinelli revealed that she had just received a phone call from her lawyer informing her of the news.

Bertinelli and Vitale’s split has not been easy, with the two battling it out over money and their prenuptial agreement.
In her book Enough Already: Learning to Love the Way I Am Today, Bertinelli described her parting from Vitale as slow and painful.
‘We have drifted from the interests that made us a couple and found that those differences can’t be fixed,’ she said.
‘He is a good man who is going through many of the same issues that I have faced: What can he do to add meaning and purpose to his life?

She wrote: ‘I love you’ are the last words Ed says to Wolfie and me, and they are the last words we say to him before he stops breathing.’
Bertinelli told People in January that her parting from Vitale was not linked to her love for the late rock musician, as they ‘grew apart.’
She added: ‘The decision has nothing to do with my love for Ed. I wish Tom the best and I know he feels the same way about me.’
Wolf proposed to his girlfriend Andraia Allsop, it was shared in early July.
