WASHINGTON — Food Network star Anne Burrell’s death at the age of 55 has been ruled a suicide, New York officials said Thursday. 

The cause of death was confirmed by New York City’s Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, who listed the cause as “acute intoxication due to the combined effects of diphenhydramine, ethanol, cetirizine, and amphetamine,” multiple media outlets reported. 

Diphenhydramine and cetirizine are over-the-counter antihistamines.

Burrell was found “unconscious and unresponsive” in her Brooklyn home June 17, the New York City Police Department said at the time. 

According to the New York Times, and other outlets, an internal police document revealed Burrell was discovered surrounded by approximately 100 pills. 

Her death came just hours after she had performed a show with her improv class Monday. 

Burrell was best known as the longtime host of Food Network’s “Worst Cooks in America,” where she transformed kitchen disasters into capable home cooks. Her trademark platinum spiky hair and boisterous laugh made her one of the network’s most recognizable personalities. She was a frequent judge on the network’s many popular competition shows, such as “Chopped.”

Burrell also appeared on numerous Food Network programs including “Chef Wanted,” “Chopped” and “Food Network Star.” 

Survivors include her husband, Stuart Claxton, whom she married in 2021, and his son, her mother and her two siblings.

“Anne’s light radiated far beyond those she knew, touching millions across the world,” the family said in a statement released by the Food Network.
