She’s been sitting far apart from her fellow hosts and she kept her distance from fellow judges on Dancing With the Stars, but now, The Talk’s Carrie Ann Inaba has tested positive for COVID-19. Fellow co-host Sheryl Underwood shared the news on today’s episode of the CBS talk show, currently in its 10th year.

Carrie Ann Inaba Tests Positive

“As you can see Carrie Ann is not here with us today,” Underwood announced. “She found out this morning that she tested positive for COVID-19. Obviously, our thoughts are with her, we love her, and we’re praying for a full recovery. And, out of an abundance of caution, Mrs. O will be doing the show from home today, from her home, even though she tested negative for the coronavirus.”

Sharon Osbourne, AKA Mrs. O, adds: “I send all my love and prayers to Carrie Ann.” Eve says, “Obviously, just concerned. I’m just happy that everyone is okay. Carrie Ann is where she needs to be, and sending her so much good energy and so much good love.”

“That’s right, sending her love and positivity. We love you girl, we love you,” adds Underwood.

“Hey Everyone, I have tested positive for COVID 19,” Inaba shared in a social media post. “I’m home with some symptoms and will be sequestering as per the CDC guidelines, resting and taking care of myself. I have been in a very safe environment following all the guidelines and safety protocols and it still found it’s way to me. So, this is a friendly reminder to be extra careful this holiday season.

“Wear your masks, socially and physically keep your distance, and wash your hands,” Inaba adds. “Take care everyone. And I’ll keep you updated on my journey.” Entertainment Hub wishes Inaba all the best and a quick recovery. The Talk airs weekdays on CBS. Check local listings for air times.
