Food Network star Giada de Laurentiis confessed that she's dating right now, but she didn't confirm that she's indeed hooking up with rumored boyfriend Bobby Flay.

Giada de Laurentiis dropped by "The Wendy Williams" show where the talk show host immediately came at her about the dating rumors with Bobby Flay, who also recently divorced with "Law & Order: SVU" actress Stephanie March.

"I love how she just dropped that in the middle of it, that's what makes you good at what you do Wendy!" she said. "I'm going to say kind of, and I will tell you, this is the first time I've actually said that!'"

Giada de Laurentiis also talked about the divorce with Todd Thompson after 11 years.

"I've always loved cooking, and I always say that I sort of gained my confidence as a young girl in the kitchen, that's where I felt the most creative and empowered," she added.

"What happened over the years working, you get caught up in your world, and all of a sudden my world came sort of crashing and I got divorced. I have a child, so I became a single mother [to Jade, 7]... I took a year of just sort of reflection. Cooking really helped me get through it. It made me happy."

In a previous interview with Gossip Cop, Giada de Laurentiis insisted that she never cheated with rumored boyfriend Bobby Flay, as well as Matt Lauer of the "Today" show, while being married to Todd Thompson.

"My long-time friendships with my co-workers Matt Lauer and Bobby Flay are exactly that - long-time friendships. There has never been a romantic relationship with these two men," she said.

While Giada de Laurentiis might not have cheated on Todd Thompson with Bobby Flay, it doesn't really rule out the rumor that they hooked up after their respective divorces. And she's quite evasive about her answers when questioned about the Food Network star.

In the interview with Wendy Williams, for example, Giada de Laurentiis was asked if she's dating Bobby Flay, but she only joked that she's been linked to any man she's met on the street.
