Rachael Ray Recently Appeared On Tommy DiDario’s Podcast
Ray is known for hosting a variety of food-themed shows, such as her own eponymous talk show. She’s also recently become known for hosting her own podcast series, “I’ll Sleep when I’m Dead.”
However, the star has occasionally appeared on other podcasts. Recently, Ray made an appearance on Tommy DiDario‘s “I’ve Never Said This Before” podcast.
Notably, DiDario and Ray have some background together. While nominally known as an entertainment correspondent, DiDario notably served as a lifestyle expert on The Rachael Ray Show during its final six years.
In a clip released by Us Weekly, Ray discussed a “miscommunication” that occurred before she started dating Cusimano in 2001. As she shared, “The first time I saw my husband, I thought he was gay and I tried to set him up on a date with a male friend of mine.”
However, Ray’s attempts to play matchmaker were short-lived. As she continued, “And he said, ‘But I am not gay.’”
Ray Has Opened Up About Her Marriage Before
That said, Ray wasn’t too unhappy to learn John was available. She then revealed, “Then I was like, ‘Check, please’ and I couldn’t wait to get him in the sack. It was [a memorable evening] and he is a very blessed man.”
Ray even teased what her love life was like. As she shared, “I had to buy two different sized suits for our wedding from Prada because his jacket was one size and his trouser was another.” She noted, “I am a very lucky lady.”

Ray and Cusimano married back in September 2005 while in Tuscany, Italy. Over the years, the country has proved to remain important to Ray. She recently shared with fans that she celebrated Christmas in Puglia for 2024. In fact, she noted that this was the third time she had celebrated Christmas in the area.
As previously reported, Ray talked about her marriage to Cusimano in a November episode of her podcast. At the time, she noted, as shared by TV Insider, “One of the things that I think has been essential to my life and my success over the years is the partner that I chose. I love my husband John, and John works with me and has built our business and our brand together, but we agree in concept about service to community, service to the world, service to animals, to children.”
“He’s a lawyer and a musician. I’m not a musician, I’m certainly no lawyer… but we balance each other in a weird way. We allow each other to be open to different worlds… It’s balance.”
