John Cusimano Shares Heartfelt Tribute To His Mom
Rachael Ray shared an old photo of herself, her husband John Cusimano, and his mother Victoria to Instagram Stories on Friday. To accompany the snapshot, she wrote, “My mother-in-law, Vicki, will be greatly missed” along with a broken-heart emoji.
Her husband, John Cusimano, shared the same photo along with several others to share the heartbreaking news of his mother’s death on Instagram. The rock singer also shared a throwback photo from his childhood and another photo with his mom.
In the caption, John wrote, “My Mom was so cool. She was a bad a** and a force of nature. She was a friend to many. She was best friend and loving wife to my Dad.”
“She was my Mom and I miss her so much. RIP Victoria Cusimano,” he concluded the post.
According to her obituary, Victoria Cusimano died “peacefully” on Wednesday, March 27, 2024. She was born on September 11, 1943, in Brooklyn. Victoria married Andrew Cusimano in 1964 and the pair moved around the state of New York for much of their lives before retiring to New Jersey.
In addition to John and Rachael, Victoria is survived by her husband Andrew, their son Andy and wife Danielle, her sister Patricia and her husband Jerry. She is also survived by multiple nieces, nephews, and grandsons.

John Cusimano and the former Food Network star got married in September 2005 in Tuscany, Italy. Although the couple is happily married, they chose not to have children. Instead, they share three dogs named Boo, Isaboo, and Bella Boo Blue.
When it came time to discuss having kids, Rachael Ray knew that she did not want to add children into her busy lifestyle. She has said, “I have an enormous amount of hours that have to be dedicated to working. For me personally, I would need more time to feel like I’d be a good mom to my own child. I feel like a borderline good mom to my dog.”
She continued, saying she couldn’t imagine how having human kids would feel. Rachael said she felt like it wouldn’t be fair to her children or the people she works with on a daily basis.
However, there was never any love lost between Rachael Ray and her husband John or his family. She will miss her mother-in-law dearly.
