Anderson Cooper has tested positive for COVID-19.
The CNN anchor shared his diagnosis Monday night via Instagram Story.
“Just tested positive for COVID. Thankfully, the kids are negative. Hope to get back to work soon,” he captioned a selfie in bed.
It was not immediately clear if the “Anderson Cooper 360″ host plans to work from home, People magazine reported.
According to Entertainment Tonight, Cooper’s infection marks the latest in a string of celebrity COVID-19 diagnoses, including Kelsea Ballerini, who was forced to co-host Monday night’s CMT Music Awards remotely after testing positive for the virus.
Meanwhile, celebrity power couple Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick tested positive for COVID-19 last week, forcing the cancelation of Thursday’s performance of their Broadway show, “Plaza Suite,” the entertainment news site reported.
Other celebrities who have tested positive for COVID-19 in recent weeks include, but are not limited to, Daniel Craig, Miley Cyrus and Lin-Manuel Miranda, ET reported.
