While on Instagram, The Top Chef host penned a lengthy post offering inspirational words for her fans. She said, “This year has been a mix of misery and elation. The whole world was swallowed up by the plague In March. We were lucky but so many weren’t and I felt an impending doom, a creeping anxiety I could not shake. Then another Black life was taken and it was good that we all rose up- but so painful too. So painful that some of our fellow Americans could not even bring themselves to say that Black lives matter, some who hold our highest offices.”
The India-born beauty, who has a daughter 10-year-old Krishna, and Adam Dell, said that even during the global coronavirus pandemic her family has grown together in unimaginable ways. She also took the moment to announce the success of her Hulu series “Taste the Nation.”
Padma Lakshmi said, “We made a cocoon for our family. We lived for the first time-all under one roof. We became closer. And professionally, I finally got to show the world what I would do if I got to build a show from scratch. Taste the
Nation was well received beyond my wildest dreams, 100 percent even on rotten tomatoes!”
The 50-year-old host also expressed how she felt “truly blessed” and has “a loving and attentive partner, a child that continues to be a miracle every day and work that I am proud of and fully engaged by with people I love”. She also felt cherished by saying, “I am today very lucky. But I am also a product of the toil and troubles my younger self endured. And I thank that version of me.”
And lastly, Padma concluded by saying, “Thank you all so much for joining me on this trip. I have loved sharing it with all of you every day (even the Trump supporters) #thisis50 #virgoseason.”
