Guy Fieri signs £80 million deal for 'more Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives'

Big news for those who love US TV chef, Guy Fieri.

Variety has just reported that he's just signed a three-year deal with Food Network worth over $100 million (£79m) – and Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives could well be part of the package.

The new contract means Fieri will hit 20 years with the network, which produces the likes of DDD, Guy's Grocery Games, and Tournament of Champions.

"Recognised everywhere he goes, there is only one Guy Fieri," said Warner Bros Discovery head of food content, Betsy Ayala, in a statement as news of the partnership dropped.

"Guy’s love of food, restaurants, and the chefs behind the dishes, combined with his extraordinary passion for crafting series with stories that resonate make extending this partnership a clear choice in our mission to deliver to viewers more of what they love."

“For nearly two decades, Food Network has been my home and continuing to create great TV within the Warner Bros. Discovery universe is exactly where I want to be," Guy said.

"Food is our most universal language so being able to unite people through highlighting chefs, restaurateurs and the folks dishing out incredible meals all over this country and world is a privilege and responsibility that I don’t take lightly."

Guy's last deal with Warner Bros Discovery earned him $80 million (£63m), meaning the new collab will reportedly break his own record.

The Mayor of Flavortown will also keep producing shows for the network through his Knuckle Sandwich production company.

In addition to his role as host of one of America’s most enduring food shows, Fieri has also opened around 60 restaurants over the course of his career.
