Bobby Flay is paying tribute to fellow celebrity chef Anne Burrell following her sudden passing earlier this week.
Flay took to Instagram to remember his co-host, saying, “‘Worst Cooks in America’ was the funniest show on TV. All of his co-hosts (myself included) were right up there with Ride Anne Burrell.”
He shared a photo of Burrell holding two Maine Coon cats and went on to say… “The greatest gift I received from AB was transforming me into a world of Maine Coon cats (including Nacho)… a gift I will have forever.” For context, Nacho is Flay’s cat.
Burrell and Flay were side by side on “Worst Cooks in America,” where he served as celebrity chef for four seasons.
As you may know, Burrell died on Tuesday … her husband found her unconscious on the shower floor. While the official cause of death has not been confirmed, the incident was reported by the 911 caller as cardiac arrest.
Clearly, its impact extended far beyond the kitchen.
