You’ll Never Believe Who Anne Burrell Married! Inside the Mysterious Life of Stuart Claxton — Her Unexpected Husband Who’s Nothing Like You’d Imagine
Burrell was found dead Tuesday in their Brooklyn home Tuesday. A cause of death is not yet known.
Food Network star, Anne Burrell, is dead. And while not much is known about her tragic passing at 55, she did have love in her life with her husband, Stuart Claxton.
Burrell married Claxton, a marketing professional, in October 2021 in a fall-themed ceremony in Cazenovia, New York, Burrell’s hometown, after meeting on the dating app, Bumble.
The wedding featured a horse and carriage entrance and was attended by close friends, including celebrity chef Rachael Ray, who served as a bridesmaid.
Born in 1972 in Scotland, Claxton’s career has taken him from working for Guinness World Records, where he stayed for nearly 13 years, doing ad sales for Univision. He previously spent ten years working for Guinness World Records and, in 2023, began working for NextUp as their vice president of marketing and communications.
As for the couple’s private life, Burrell served as a stepmom to Claxton’s son, Javier, and lived in an apartment in Brooklyn that they renovated together.

After attending the Culinary Institute of America in the ’90s, Burrell continued her training in Italy.
She began working in restaurants and for Mario Batalli, who landed her a gig on Iron Chef America. From there, she launched her own show, Secrets of a Restaurant Chef, on Food Network and, in 2010, began to host the network’s Worst Cooks In America.
She also hosted the spinoff series, Worst Cooks In America: Celebrity Edition; the most recent season finished airing back in February.
