She broke the news in a video-backed statement shared on her Instagram handle on Sunday morning.

In the post, the film star can be seen plugged onto a ventilator with a drip line running through her arm.

“I couldn’t have been more careful with the kids going to school etc. I would rather go through this than my children. What a Christmas and New Year. What a 2021! COVID is a terrible terrible virus,” the actress wrote.

“I can’t even explain. So exhausting, 3 weeks and still counting. Thanks to @ldn_ambulance Kent zone, @darent_valley_hospital @tiko4guvnor @drtonero @wonuola.akintola. This too shall pass.”

In a picture that accompanied the post, which appeared to be the COVID-19 test result from a UK hospital, the mother of three was asked to self-isolate and stay at home until January 6.

“Account ID 1b7bdb00. You have tested positive for COVID-19, so you must stay at home and self-isolate until the 6th of January (including this date). If you still have a fever until the 6th, you should continue,” the text read.
