Rachael Ray has reemerged on social media in her first video since the one she posted last week that raised concerns on her health and speech.
The Instagram Reel, which was shared on Saturday, September 7, featured a segment from Ray's FYI show Rachael Ray in Tuscany, which showed the chef cooking up her recipe for Rabbit Ragu. Despite this new content, she did not address the health-related concerns that had arisen from a previous video and notably not slurring her speech in the new video.
The initial worry stemmed from a September 2 video in which the former Rachael Ray Show star recounted a memorable dinner party with the late Tony Bennett. The 56-year-old described a mishap where Bennett, slipping on a freshly polished floor, fell and hit his head. "I thought I killed Tony Bennett," Ray humorously detailed her panic. Although the story was received with affection by many, some were alarmed by Ray's appearance.
This led to a flurry of comments suggesting she might be experiencing health issues like a possible stroke, or that she was under the influence of alcohol. Some comments urged Ray to get checked by a medical professional, while others defended her, attributing any speech issues to aging or medication.
"I think it's a mini stroke. Part of her mouth seems sinking. When was this???? I haven't seen her this makes me so sad," noted one concerned fan, while another confidently declared, "I love her and yes, she's drunk." Other's shut down the rumors by leaving comments like, "She's aging like the rest of us," and "Please stop. We get old, our face changes, some women don't get facework done."
Ray posted her first photo since the concerning video on Thursday, Sept 5, sharing a mouth watering pic of shrimp and chorizo paella along with a link to the recipe.
When contacted by TMZ for a comment, Ray's representative chose not to respond.
