Andy Cohen, host of Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live just announced he’s tested positive for coronavirus on his Instagram in a very solemn post. His post was captioned, “After a few days of self-quarantine, and not feeling great, I have tested positive for Coronavirus,” he wrote in the caption for his post. “As much as I felt like I could push through whatever I was feeling to do #WWHL from home, we’re putting a pin in that for now so I can focus on getting better. I want to thank all the medical professionals who are working tirelessly for all of us, and urge everybody to stay home and take care of themselves.”
What’s so unfortunate is that the new father had just announced he had hunkered himself down in his New York City apartment with his child not letting any of his friends come over because a neighbor tested positive for coronavirus and here he ended up getting it anyway. On the brighter side of things a couple hours prior, Bravo announced he would be doing his show from home. “Just when we thought our show couldn’t get any more low-tech, we’re all homebound,” Cohen said in a statement, and added that there will be “at-home show-and-tells and surprises. I’m not sure how this will play out, but I know it’ll be fun.”
Other celebrities tested positive for the coronavirus are Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Daniel Dae Kim, Prince Albert II, Sean Payton, Colton Underwood. And feeling the pinch, stars have been donating to the cause as well. Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have pledged $1 million to Feeding America and Food Banks Canada; Steph Curry and his wife Ayesha have donated money to Alameda County Community Food Bank through their foundation, Eat, Learn, Play and a number of others as well. Hopefully their efforts won’t go in vain and we’ll be praying for a speedy recovery for Andy Cohen.
