In a conversation with People, Fieri shared, “I’m doing better. It was definitely a trying holiday.” He reflected on the experience, expressing a newfound appreciation for mobility. The Food Network star, who is passionate about CrossFit and hiking, admits that being unable to engage in these activities has been challenging.
