Rachel Ray Reveals She's 'Had A Couple Bad Falls'

With many fans constantly asking for an update on her health, the author shed some light on what's been going on in her life. In the the very first episode of her new podcast, "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead," which premiered last Tuesday, the host was speaking about her love for being a homemaker.

"I love chores. I love being in the kitchen. I always work with my brain every day. I'm always writing something," she explained. "But I really like chores. I like what people consider physical work. I like making dinners, planning dinners, making lists," adding that she even likes "helping carry in the wood."

However, she then noted that she "hasn't been doing that in a while" because she "had a couple of bad falls in the last couple weeks." While she did not elaborate on how severe the falls were and whether they've had any long-lasting health effects, fans took this as an explanation for her potentially slurred speech.
