Rachael Ray shared an update on her health after a video of her appearing to slur her words went viral last month.

In the debut episode of her podcast, โ€œIโ€™ll Sleep When Iโ€™m Dead,โ€ the chef revealed she has been recovering from some injuries, which she attributed to household chores.

โ€œIโ€™m a homemaker. I love chores. I love being in the kitchen,โ€ Ray said on the podcast episode. โ€œI always work with my brain every day, Iโ€™m always writing something, but I really like chores.โ€

โ€œI like what people consider physical work,โ€ she continued. โ€œI like making dinner, planning dinners, making lists. I love physical labor, helping carry in the wood.โ€

She added that she often finds herself competing with her husband John. โ€œโ€˜How many pieces of wood did John carry? Can I carry more? I donโ€™t say that to John. I just say it to myself,โ€ she said.

The 56-year-old added she had to put the physical labor on hold because during the last several weeks she had suffered โ€œa couple of bad falls.โ€

She did not go into detail how the falls happened or what kind of injuries she may have sustained.

Fans first became concerned for the TV personalityโ€™s health in early September after she shared a clip on Instagram that appeared to show a portion of her face drooping and her slurring her words.

โ€œLook at her mouth. It looks like she may be recovering from a stroke,โ€ a worried fan wrote.

โ€œSounds tipsy to me. And she looks bloated. I hope she gets the help she needs or she will be another person dead from the awful disease of addiction,โ€ another wrote.

Despite numerous comments showing both their concern and support for the Food Network star, Ray never addressed her fans until now.

 

Although she didnโ€™t provide an in-depth answer to the viral video, she offered a plausible explanation.

Whatever happened to Rachael Ray I do hope sheโ€™s okay. I would never wish anything bad upon her.
