Anne Burrell, the exuberant Food Network host whose infectious energy and signature spiked platinum hair made her a standout in food television, died Tuesday at her home in Brooklyn, according to a report from People Magazine. She was 55.
Her family confirmed her death in a statement to the publication, writing: “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.”
