‘Well. We did it. We got ourselves a quarantine puppy. Officially outnumbered by canines now, just in time for Christmas. Speaking of which. May you have yourself a merry little one. Love yourself & love each other – even if it’s over Zoom for now,’ she wrote. 

 A lifelong Van Halen fan, Wilson clearly instilled his love for the rock god on his kids and was gutted upon his passing as he took to Instagram to share a photo autographed by the legend.
