The celebrity chef has hosted the Food Network show since September 2006, but it has been reported that she “hasn’t been doing well for a while”.

Rachael reportedly taped her final episode earlier this year – and said the finale was something for the ages.

In conversation with the New York PostShe said, “The last one.” [taping] The day was terrible. We had almost two feet of snow [in upstate New York] and we were unable to film many of our interviews.

“I had a lot of pick up work to do the next day to try and make up for what we couldn’t do as we didn’t have internet and it was easy [her husband] John [Cusimano] and me and no control room. It was crazy,” she continued.

“Donnie Wahlberg was one of my last guests and he got a bit confused when we were talking about the end of the show.

“I was so touched by that — that someone who is so famous in so many ways and for so long is with his wife.” [Jenny McCarthy]one of the most beautiful women in the world who is also hugely famous – to show that true emotion that really touched me.

“I was like, ‘Oh my god, some people respect you too, dumbass — you’re not just a waitress from upstate New York. Some people actually like what you did here too,'” she added.

Donnie even took to Twitter on Tuesday and tweeted some photos of him and Rachael during the shoot, writing, “Such a touching episode. Don’t miss them tomorrow!”

“I’ve already stopped recording! I can’t wait to check it out!” one fan replied.

Others mourned the end of The Rachael Ray Show, as one viewer wrote: “Well that sucks I love your show so much I’m going to miss it. Much luck.”

Another person said: “I’m really going to miss your show. Since I’ve been working from home in 2019, you’ve been part of my everyday life. Enjoy and good luck. We will miss you very much!!!!”

Rachael’s popular program mixed kitchen segments where she showcased her cooking skills with interviews with the biggest celebrities.
