The Watch What Happens Live host thanked everyone for "the amazing messages" he has received during his recovery.
Andy Cohen shared an update on how he's doing since announcing that he had tested positive for coronavirus (COVID-19) last week.
The Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen host took to his Instagram Story on Tuesday, March 24 to let fans know that he is recovering from the illness. "Thank you all for the amazing messages," Andy shared atop a photo of the New York City skyline. "I am getting better every day and can't wait to see everybody again."
Andy also advised everyone, "Stay home. Be smart."
He ended his post by showing gratitude to all of the medical professionals that are still out in the field amid this pandemic. "And thank you to the medical professionals on the front lines!" Andy shared.
Andy announced that he had tested positive for coronavirus in a post on Instagram on Friday, March 20. "After a few days of self-quarantine, and not feeling great, I have tested positive for Coronavirus. 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," Andy wrote. "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."
Production on WWHL has been suspended since March 13. As Andy mentioned, he was planning on filming a special edition of his talk show, dubbed Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen: @ Home, from his Big Apple apartment in its place. However, those episodes have been postponed following his coronavirus diagnosis.
