Rachael Ray Details Getting “Bashed” Over Decision to Not Have Kids – E! Online
Martha Stewart Reveals What Sparked an Alleged Feud Between Her and Ina Garten 20 Years Ago
Rachael Ray is happy being a childless dog lady.
But it’s a decision she admitted many fans have taken issue with. The former Food Network star hosted celebrity trainer and former Bigger Loser judge, Bob Harper on her I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead podcast, where they bonded over their decision to not have children…but dogs.
“I chose to never have children,” Bob told Rachael on the Nov. 12 episode. “God love all the people that have kids.”
Rachael quickly agreed, but added another layer to the conversation noting, “Me too. And boy did I get bashed for it over the decades.”
But it didn’t lead to the 56-year-old—who has been married to John Cusimano since 2005—changing her mind, as she’s been so happy to dedicate her life to caring for her dogs.
“They never talk back,” Rachael quipped about the difference between dogs and kids. “They always want to hug you. It just brings you a ray of light.”
