Valerie Bertinelli left 'really hurt' after being axed from Food Network's Kids Baking Championship over 'budget cuts' following nine years as host
Valerie Bertinelli revealed her surprising exit from Food Network and the show she hosted, Kids Baking Championship on an Instagram story post.
The 63-year-old actress had hosted Food Network's Kids Baking Championship since 2015 though she could not finalize a deal to return.
The One Day at a Time star was in talks to return as the host, though a source told People that her return was,'absolutely discussed,' but her team,'decided they wanted more and talks stalled.'
She added that the last season she filmed was during her 'apex year of hell' that included her divorce from Tom Vitale.
Another source added,'Her deal was up, and [Food Network] chose not to renew. They did not make a new offer, but Valerie very much wanted to continue."
Now Bertinelli took to Instagram story on Saturday, stating that 'budget cuts' were the reason she wasn't returning as host alongside Duff Goldman.
