In breaking news this morning, Hollywood A-lister Tom Hanks has announced that he and his wife Rita Wilson have coronavirus.
The 63-yr-old Academy Award-winning actor is currently in Australia, where he was set to film a movie about the life of Elvis Presley.
He has just released the following statement:
“Hello, folks. Rita and I are down here in Australia,” Mr. Hanks said in a statement. “We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too. To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the coronavirus, and were found to be positive.”
He added that he and Ms. Wilson “will be tested, observed and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires.”
“Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no? We’ll keep the world posted and updated,” he said.
