Bravo Star Andy Cohen Tests Positive for Coronavirus

Andy Cohen, the host and producer of Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live,” has announced that he has tested positive for coronavirus.

Cohen announced his test results in an Instagram post and said that he will be taking a break from filming his show while he fights the virus. 

“After a few days of self-quarantine, and not feeling great, I have tested positive for Coronavirus,” Cohen wrote. “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.”

The reality television wrap up show features several celebrity guests each episode.

Earlier on Friday, Bravo had announced that Cohen would be filming the show from his apartment in New York City.

“Host and executive producer Andy Cohen will check in with Bravolebrity and celebrity guests for a kiki from the couch, with special games, at-home show-and-tells and surprises. Kicking off the virtual party this Sunday are guests Nene Leakes, Jerry O’Connell, and Ramona Singer,” a statement from the network read.

Multiple celebrities have tested positive for the virus leading many to question why they appear to be getting priority access to the tests.
