“Anyone who has been in close contact with me has been notified, and I am following all proper CDC guidelines.”

“I’ll see you all again after the holidays. Please stay healthy and safe.”

The diagnosis marks the end of a tumultuous year for DeGeneres, who made headlines after accusations of bullying behaviour behind the scenes.

Hollywood Reporter has confirmed the daily talk show Ellen will cease filming until January.
