Brad Leone is one of the star chefs of the super successful YouTube channel Enjoy your meal. He is the host of It’s Alive with Brad and its spin-off series on the road, It’s Alive: Goin’ Places. Brad started his career in Enjoy as a test kitchen helper. Little by little, she worked her way up the ranks to become Test Kitchen Manager.
In 2016, Bon Appétit began filming a series that followed Brad at his station in the kitchen. The magazine shelved the project for eight months before the show’s creative director put the series back into production. The show was an instant success, and over time, the organizers gave Brad the freedom to steer the series in his own direction.
This piece will look at Brad’s personal life. We are not sure if he is married, but he is in a relationship.
Leone says that her partner Peggy and their children, Callen and Griffin, are big fans of her cooking.
Brad and his long-time partner, Peggy Marie Merck, are raising two sons: Callen and Griffin. The adorable children are regularly featured on their parents’ Instagram pages.
brad said Enjoy that he does most of the cooking at home since his partner and children are big fans of his cooking. He told the publication that Griffin especially gobbles up anything Brad cooks:
“Everything we eat at home, he eats. If we’re going to eat leg of lamb with a little rice and salad, I chop everything super fine, which is almost a paste, and eat it. Salmon belly. Shrimp. Deer. Chicken Soup. All.”
Brad refused to get involved afterwards Enjoy was criticized for fostering inequality in the workplace
In mid-June, Bon Appétit made headlines for all the wrong reasons after employees exposed rampant inequality in the workplace. Brad responded to the reports by stating that, on a personal level, he had done everything possible to promote equality. However, he apologized for not acknowledging the ‘microaggressions’ that were occurring in the workplace. He posted the following message on Instagram:
“I did everything I could to support diversity and equity in our workplace and in my content at BA. I hope my relationships with coworkers and my content speak to that. I now see how I was blind to the experiences of my BIPOC and gay colleagues, I didn’t see the microaggressions I had never experienced and I apologize for that.
She then vowed to play a role in ending workplace discrimination at Bon Appétit. “I hope that myself and the future BA can set an example of work and integrity against racism in all fields and that our action helps open the door to every other workplace in the world,” she wrote.
Leone’s popularity grew because he did not present himself as a perfect chef.
When Leone put on her show Enjoy, he set out to prove that it was common to make mistakes as a chef. He wanted to show fans that even professional chefs are imperfect. Contrary to his expectations, his approach won many fans. lioness said uproxx:
“I wanted to bring the human element back to food. When people make recipes at home, things go wrong. People make mistakes. Things happen. I think it’s a more fun video to watch. And it turned out to be true.”
Leone has made mistakes, and some of them have put her life in danger. He once tried to make Italian sparkling red wine, but ignored a crucial safety instruction during fermentation: He opened a carbonated bottle under pressure without chilling it. The bottle exploded, injuring Leon and his partner. He said embedded magazine:
“There was Lambrusco on the ceiling, on our faces, it had small glass micro-cuts on the face. We were very lucky no one got hurt. My coworker, Chris Morocco, the senior food editor, was standing next to me at the time and didn’t speak for days.”
