In this week’s issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands now, the chef, 56, gushes over his daughter Sophie, who is currently working as a community journalist for ABC7 in Los Angeles after graduating from the University of Southern California’s Annenberg School of Communication. She is his only child with ex-wife Kate Connelly.
Sophie, 24, reports on events, store openings, and neighborhood concerns—like local restaurants getting backlash forasking customers to wear a mask—in Los Angeles. In the past, she has also collaborated with her dad for the Food Network seriesThe Flay List.
“Usually, if it’s somebody’s birthday, somebody cooks for them, but that didn’t happen,” he says with a laugh. “I had to cook dinner anyway, which was totally fine.”
