Addressing her fans on the first episode of her new podcast, Iโll Sleep When Iโm Dead, Rachael shared that she has been recovering from various health issues, which she attributes to her love for housework.
โI manage our home and truly love it,โ she explained, adding that her daily life is filled with both physical tasks and creative work. โI love being in the kitchen, making lists, organizing meals, and doing manual labor,โ she continued. โI even enjoy bringing in wood from the forest.โ
Rachael mentioned that she and her husband John frequently challenge each other to carry more wood, adding a playful rivalry to her routine. However, at 56, she admitted that she recently needed to cut back on the physical labor after experiencing โa couple of bad fallsโ in the past few weeks, though she chose not to disclose details about her injuries.
The video that initially raised concern showed Rachael with slightly slurred speech and a hint of facial sagging, prompting fans to wonder if she might have had a stroke or was facing other health issues. While some speculated about her condition, others sent supportive messages, hoping for her well-being.
Though she didnโt delve into specifics, Rachael provided a plausible explanation, reassuring fans without going into too much detail. โWhatโs happening with Rachael Ray? We all hope sheโs okay,โ one fan commented, expressing the sentiment of many who wish her well.
