Paula Deen ‘Dropped a Ton of Weight’ After Scandal, Lives a ‘Calm’ Life: She’s ‘Humbler’


Paula Deen 'lives a very calm life, more modest than she was used to before the scandal that got her fired from Food Network,' sources exclusively tell Closer.

Paula Deen is barely recognizable after losing a radical amount of weight as she grapples with diabetes, and sources exclusively tell Closer she’s a very different person from how she was in the days she was looking to find peace after all the blunders. She can still whip up a Southern-comfort meal with biscuits and gravy, desserts like peach cobbler and banana pudding or chocolate pound cake, but she’ll only take a small bite to taste and show her fans it’s really good.” With her YouTube channel currently up to 554,000 subscribers, “It would give her a thrill to topple people like Martha Stewart,” says the insider, “but frankly she hasn’t the time or heart for that kind of petty stuff anymore.”
