As OK! reported, in addition to appearing to slur her words in the video, many of the Food Network star's admirers thought her face looked different. While some accused the talk show host of being "drunk" or having suffered a medical condition, others thought she was just aging, as she's been famous since the early 2000s.

While Ray "liked" some of the comments on her recent recipe post, she didn't interact with any of the 600+ comments on the video.

The cookbook author hasn't publicized any recent health issues and revealed to People earlier this year that she has no plans of slowing down career-wise.

"I'm not really good with downtime. I love to work. I love it," she insisted. "I love to have my brain very active, and if I'm not writing shows, I'm drawing ‘foodles’ I call them — recipes on paper — and writing books and things. I don't like being idle. I've never been good at it."

"I really am bad at doing nothing!" she confessed, revealing she sometimes begins her days as early as 3 a.m. so she has time to get everything done.

"I can't sleep. I wake up at three or four in the morning, and I just start working because I can't stop thinking about it. I'm not very good at sleep. I never have been," the 30 Minute Meals host spilled. "Even when I was a little girl. My nickname was Little Hoot because I was a night owl."

When it comes to her future endeavors, Ray shared, "I'm always game for anything, and I'm a person who's over 50 years old. I'm trying to still remain relevant, which is an honor. It's cool to be over 50 and get new opportunities that keep getting thrown at me."
