“It’s very hard, especially for hot-tempered or creative or loud people, to tone it down,” the celebrity TV chef said. “John and I never let it rest. We have big screaming matches all the time, but I think that’s healthy. I really do. And I don’t trust people who are too quiet.”
Ray, who will mark her 20-year marriage to Cusimano in 2025, elaborated on what it means to her.

Molen, who was married to “American Pie” actor Jason Biggs for 16 years, pushed Ray forward and asked which of them apologized first after a heated discussion.
Ray responded, “I don’t know that we ever apologized to each other.” “Eventually I pat his buttocks or he kisses my head, and it’s just the way it is. This is an apology. It just kind of made sense. ‘I still like your ass.’ ‘I still like your head.’ It’s kind of in that area.”
