‘DWTS’ competitor Cody Rigsby tests positive for COVID-19 days after Cheryl Burke

Cody Rigsby, a standout Peloton instructor who landed a spot on the current season of “Dancing With the Stars,” has tested positive for COVID-19, he revealed Thursday.

This is the second time he’s tested positive for the virus in 2021.

“While I am fully vaccinated and took many precautions, following CDC guidelines, I recently tested positive for COVID-19,” the 34-year-old shared on Instagram. “To properly rest and recover as well as avoid exposing others, I will be taking a break in the coming days. I appreciate all your support and I’ll be back as soon as I am ready.”

Rigsby added within the video that his symptoms thus far include congestion and a mild headache.

Four days prior, his dancing partner, Cheryl Burke, announced that she also tested positive for COVID-19.

“I feel so bad. I feel so bad for Cody. I feel like I’m letting him down. I just feel like s–t,” she said of partner Rigsby at the time.

“It’s so overwhelming because it’s Sunday and the show’s tomorrow. I figured I should let you guys know since I’ve been as open and as real and as vulnerable as I could be here,” Burke continued. “I just hope I didn’t spread it. For those of you who don’t think COVID is a real thing, it’s f–king real, dude.”

Before the fitness instructor’s diagnosis, plans were put in place for Burke to coach him via Zoom as she recovered.
