Police officers are understood to have responded to a 911 call made from Burrell's apartment about an unresponsive woman.

NEW YORK (Gray News) - Authorities are reportedly investigating a Food Network star’s death as a possible overdose. Anne Burrell, known for hosting Food Network series, including being the longtime co-host of “Worst Cooks in America,” died Tuesday at her home in New York. She was 55.

The 55-year-old Food Network star — who hosted “Worst Cooks in America” for 15 years — was found unresponsive in her Brooklyn home on Tuesday. She reportedly suffered cardiac arrest and her body was surrounded by pills, as previously reported by Page Six. (It’s premature to draw any conclusions about whether the pills played a role in her death.)
