Some fans are worried after Rachael Ray shared a new video allegedly "slurring" her words, months after sparking concerns with another viral clip.
The celebrity chef recently took to her Instagram to post a video in the kitchen for Mother's Day honoring how her mom taught her not just to cook but "showed me how to make something outta nothing," sharing personal anecdotes of how she learned to get creative with cooking while having a tight budget.
Noting how "grateful" she was to learn how to cook with pantry staples like beans and vegetables with a "little protein," which she lived off for "a long time," she said, "I'm deeply thankful for it. It's made my life what it is."
While Ray was focused on sharing her message with followers, some viewers took something different from the video, worrying that she doesn't "look well" and is "slurring her words," per Page Six. "I don't recognize Rachel [sic]," one commenter wrote, as another added, "I hope she's OK."
However, not everyone agreed that Ray's behavior seemed off.
"She looks fine. Leave her alone," one user wrote, while another defended, "She's having some health issues. Hopefully, people will understand and show her grace as she goes through it."
This isn't the first time concerns have arisen from one of Ray's videos. Last year, fans voiced their worries for the TV personality's health after she allegedly seemed to slur a few words in another Instagram post. Around that time, she admitted on her I'll Sleep When I'm Dead podcast that she had experienced a "couple of bad falls."
