During the episode, Gomez was caught texting her co-host, Raquelle Stevens.
“Sel, who are you texting?” asks Stevens, 30, and Gomez then tries to hide a smile as she shushes her friend.
“Look, it’s tough out there,” he added Just the murders in the building actress. But her co-host chirps, “I could probably guess who,” and Gomez quickly says, “Stop.”
That wasn’t the only time Gomez was caught in the act during the final episode. Towards the end of the episode, when Stevens asks chef Adjepong, 36, how their cake is doing, he confirms that they have a timer running — which Gomez was tasked with setting at the beginning of the episode.
But Gomez soon realized that she hadn’t set the timer.
A montage of the show pokes fun at Gomez’s banter and zooms in on her face as she realizes her mistake. As fun music plays over Gomez’s shocked face, the episode then plays a clip of her going to “set the timer.” The video then shows the actress getting distracted and sending a message to a “mysterious recipient”.
After Gomez’s little hiccup, Adjepong quickly went to check on the cake and declared, “It’s definitely time to take it out.” As he takes out the overbaked cake, he says to the host, “It’s actually okay. Um… it’s perfectly fine.”
As Gomez shares a look of deep concern, Stevens interjects, “He’s just being nice.”
“No no no. I actually like that it’s a little over,” Adjepong said. “I’m completely honest.”
