Real Housewives of New Jersey star Jennifer Aydin says she's tested positive for coronavirus, making the announcement Wednesday in a video on Instagram.

 

In a post on Instagram, Aydin says, “I've been sick for the past 10 days and Monday is when my test came back positive. But today is the first day that I'm finally starting to feel better. Keeping my kids away has been the hardest and I'm grateful that I have no breathing issues. My days haven't been so bad, aside from a lot of fatigue and sleeping. At night is when it's the worst for me because of the mix of sweating and chills. I'm taking my vitamins and drinking hot liquids. We'll all get through this. #staypositive #stayinside #covid19.”

Aydin, 42, is the first member of the Real Housewives franchise to reveal she has the virus.

 

She is a mother of five, and currently quarantined in her home in Paramus.
