Last month, a video of Rachael Ray went viral after some people thought she was slurring her words. Fans quickly became worried about the celebrity chef’s health. But just recently, Rachael decided to give an update and share what was really going on with her.
In the first episode of her podcast, “I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead,” Rachael explained that she had been recovering from a few different health problems. She said she believed all the issues were caused by her love for housework!
“I take care of the house. I adore doing housework,” Rachael said during the podcast. “I love being in the kitchen. Even though I enjoy doing chores, I always write something and work with my brain every day.”
Rachael also admitted that she enjoys what many people would call physical labor. “I enjoy creating lists, organizing dinners, and preparing meals. I enjoy doing manual labor, like carrying in the woods,” she said, revealing how much she loves to stay active.
She even shared a fun detail about her relationship with her husband, John. “John and I are often competing with each other,” Rachael said, laughing. “How much timber does John have on him? Can I carry more than him? I don’t say it out loud, but I think it to myself.”
But lately, Rachael has had to slow down. She explained that she had experienced “a couple of bad falls” in the past few weeks. However, she didn’t go into detail about the falls or what kind of injuries they might have caused.
In early September, fans became especially concerned after Rachael posted a video on Instagram. In the video, it seemed like she might be slurring her words, and part of her face looked like it was sagging.
A fan commented, “Observe her mouth. It looks like she might be recovering from a stroke.” Another fan added, “To me, it sounds like she’s drunk. She also looks bloated. I hope she gets the help she needs or else she might become another person who dies from addiction.”
Despite the concern from her fans, Rachael didn’t comment on the video until recently. When she did speak up, she gave a clear explanation for what had happened but didn’t go into too much detail.
Fans were relieved to hear from Rachael and are glad to know that she’s recovering, even if she hasn’t shared every detail. Many people are still wishing her well, hoping that nothing serious is going on with her health.
“What happened to Rachael Ray?” one fan wondered. “I really hope she’s okay. Nothing terrible should ever happen to her.”
