Reality TV star Khloé Kardashian has confirmed that she was diagnosed with COVID-19 in a teaser for an upcoming episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. The show has been hinting at this for some time now. Her sister, Kylie noted in a trailer way back in April that ‘someone close’ to her had tested positive for the virus. Khloé addressed the camera (presumably her phone) from her bedroom, saying, “I’ve just found out that I do have corona.”

“It was really bad for a couple of days – vomiting and shaking and hot and then cold. I suffer from migraines, but this was the craziest headache,” she continued. “My chest would burn when I cough.”

This is not the only Kardashian/COVID news this week. Kim is under fire for celebrating her 40th birthday on a private island. However, given the timeline of the episodes, it is likely that Khloé contracted the virus in March. The reality star’s Instagram at the time did not indicate anything unusual, apart from maybe slightly fewer new selfies than usual.
