When it comes to various elements of her life, Valerie Bertinelli doesn't seem the type to withhold many secrets from her followers. But now, fans aren't so sure. In fact, many seem to think the Hot in Cleveland actress may have a secret project in the works, and they're trying to put all the clues together to figure out what it might be.

It all started on June 28, when the Food Network star posted an Instagram video with her Kids Baking Championship co-host Duff Goldman. As they walk toward a soundstage, the twosome kept cracking jokes about making sure to keep their location a secret.

"I started talking before I started shooting," she laughed in the beginning of the clip. "Guess where we are?" Duff, as fans of the two know, can't go without teasing his co-star, so naturally he had to respond in as hilarious of a manner. "Evidently, we're at a bar 'cause you're drunk," he jested right back.

Keep in mind, Valerie does mention that she was not drunk at the time of filming ("No, I'm not drinking — it's too early!"). But since the post does feature video monitors and the duo having to walk onto a soundstage, TV goers are wondering if she and Duff are teaming up for an entirely new project. We get it — they do make TV magic, so it wouldn't be too much of a surprise if we saw them together on some other Food Network program.

Chances are, Valerie and Duff have just joined forces for another round of Kids Baking Championship. How do we figure? Over the last few years, the newest season would air sometime in December and would finish in February. Given how the show features kids (it is in the series' title) and it's a week-by-week competition, it would make sense for filming to start now while most are on summer break.

And many people seem to agree it's for the hit show. "Filming Kids Baking. one of my fav," wrote one follower. "Kids baking championship? Hoping for another season. You two are so cute together. Good to see you smiling Val," another responded. "Another season of Kids Baking Championship?!? Yay!!" one more replied.

Until we get more clues, there's no way to tell exactly what Valerie (and Duff) is up to. But we do know one thing: She's going all in with her love of TikTok. Check it out here:
