Taylor Hurt Chopped Cause Of Death

How Did Taylor Hurt, Past Participant Of Chopped Passed Away?

Chopped, shown on the Food Network, challenges competing chefs to create gourmet dishes out of a mystery basket of ingredients in order to compete for a cash prize of $10,000. Fans of the show may remember past participant Taylor Hurt, who became nationally famous for her inventive and inspiring cooking.

So, when a recent episode ended with a title card that said it was in “loving memory” of Taylor Hurt, it was clear that she had passed away. Naturally, we’re upset to hear this, but we can’t help but wonder what happened.

How Did Taylor Hurt Passed Away?

Neither Taylor Hurt’s family nor her partner have commented publicly on the circumstances surrounding her de@th. In fact, for many people, the cooking show was the only proof that she had passed away. Taylor’s de@th was never suspected by those who wondered why she wasn’t posting to her social media accounts.

Her final Instagram post was posted on November 19, 2020, just 10 days before her terrible de@th. It promotes both her job and Chef Katie Dixon’s cookbook “Be Nourished.”

Having said that, Brandi Emmons Lott just made a post on Facebook that hinted that Taylor may have developed an addiction. Her caption said, “It was truly a blessing to get to see you again Taylor M. Hurt. You looked so confident on Chopped and I am so proud of you! Addiction is a horrible horrible thief!! We love you big Tater!!”

From what we know, Brandi is also from Mississippi, but we can’t say for sure if she knew Taylor or anything else about what happened. So, until Taylor’s family tells us more, if ever, we can only guess.

Taylor had even made up a lot of her own recipes, and she was successful enough to get her work published in the “Be Nourished” cookbook. She had worked at a few restaurants in New York City over time, so her experience showed her drive.

During her appearance on “Chopped,” Taylor sadly came in last. Still, she wowed the food world with her mouth-watering three-course meals and their great presentation. Her fruitful life, however, didn’t last long, as she passed away on November 29, 2020.

According to her obituary, her lifelong dream was to become the host of a popular cookery show. Taylor was loved and cared for by her parents, Gary and Luvith Hurt, as well as her siblings, Del Sanders, Kay Cameron, and Vivian Hurt. Her girlfriend at the time was Paige Pirtle, who still remembers her and misses her.
