Fans are expressing outrage after the Food Network posted a photo of chef Anne Burrell to promote her show, just weeks after she died by suicide.
The Food Network shared a picture of Burrell alongside her co-host, chef Gabe Bertaccini, earlier this week to promote a new episode of the long-running show, “Worst Cooks in America.”
“It’s showtime! 🌟” the Instagram post said with a photo of Burrell and Bertaccini both smiling, alongside a carousel of pictures from the episode.
“The recruits step up to the spotlight in the first-ever Boot Camp Culinary Pageant! Competing head-to-head, they show off their kitchen skills in hopes of being crowned Mister or Miss Boot Camp 👑 ” the post continued. “Watch a new episode of #WorstCooks TONIGHT at 9|8c!”
The chipper tone struck followers as “odd,” as well as the failure to mention Burrell’s death.
