After Feb. 25’s fiery finale of Top Chef, the knives are out! Although Hosea Rosenberg won the Bravo show’s cook-off, viewers felt fan favorite Carla Hall was robbed, thanks to bad advice from her souschef, season three runner-up Casey Thompson.
Carla, 44, rushed to the former cheftestant’s defense, saying, “I take full responsibility.”
The less-polite Casey slammed the Georgia-based cook and the show in an outspoken interview with the online magazine D, insisting she “did not influence Carla. She has no ideas of her own,” and posting on her Facebook page, “I’m done with TC.” (She later claimed D took her words out of context).

Meanwhile, Hosea was recently spied in a clinch with fellow Top Chef-er Leah Cohen at Madame X bar. The pair also shared a midseason make-out session, despite having partners.
“Leah and I are good buddies,” Hosea dished to OK!.
