Comedian and day time talks host Ellen DeGeneres has revealed she has tested positive for Covid-19.
“I want to let you all know that I tested positive for Covid-19. Fortunately, I’m feeling fine right now,” the 62-year-old posted to social media.
“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.
