Anne Burrell, a Food Network star, host of Worst Cooks in America, and celebrity chef has died. She was 55.

Burrell died at her home in New York this morning, her family confirmed.

“Anne was a beloved wife, sister, daughter, stepmother, and friend - her smile lit up every room she entered. Anne's light radiated far beyond those she knew, touching millions across the world. Though she is no longer with us, her warmth, spirit, and boundless love remain eternal,” Burrell’s family said in a statement to Deadline.
