Written by News on 04/04/2020
Boris Johnson’s fiance Carrie Symonds, who is pregnant with the couple’s first child, says she has spent the past week in bed with symptoms of coronavirus.
Posting on social media, Ms Symonds said she has not yet been tested for COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus.
“I’ve spent the past week in bed with the main symptoms of Coronavirus,” she said on Twitter.
“I haven’t needed to be tested and, after seven days of rest, I feel stronger and I’m on the mend.”
The 32-year-old advised other expectant parents to keep up to date with relevant guidance from the Royal College Of Obstetricians And Gynaecologists.
“Being pregnant with Covid-19 is obviously worrying. To other pregnant women, please do read and follow the most up to date guidance which I found to be v [sic] reassuring.”
Ms Symonds’ fiance, Prime Minister Boris Johnson, is currently self-isolating after showing symptoms of the coronavirus.
Mr Johnson has already been in his flat above 10 Downing Street for seven days, the reccommended amount of isolation time for those living alone.
But Mr Johnson will continue to remain away from others as he still is suffering from a high temperature, a symptom of COVID-19.
Ms Symonds is believed to have left Downing Street more than a week ago for her flat in Camberwell in South London.
