Rachael explained the decision in a statement to Deadline. She said, "In my more than 20-plus years in television, I have had 17 wonderful seasons working in daytime television with Rachael. However, I've made the decision that it is time for me to move on to the next exciting chapter in my broadcast career."

Rachael Domenica Ray was born in Glens Falls, New York, the daughter of Elsa Providenza Scuderi and James Claude Ray. Her mother's ancestry is Sicilian and her father is French, Scottish, and Welsh.

“I've made the decision that it's time for me to move on to the next exciting chapter in my broadcast career,” Ray announced on March 3, after the series had seen a significant decline in ratings in recent years. She said she would instead be focusing on her recently announced production arm, Free Food Studios.

Ray graduated from Lake George High School in upstate New York in 1986 and attended Pace University near New York City. She lasted only two years in college before dropping out and beginning her working life, finding work at a gourmet grocery store in the city.
