Talk show host Tamron Hall is entering May sweeps with a COVID-19 diagnosis.
“I wanted to share the news with you that I have tested positive for COVID-19,” Hall informed her “Tamron Hall Show” staffers Tuesday in an email obtained by Page Six.
“I am following CDC guidelines, staying home and taking every precaution to ensure everyone’s safety,” she wrote.
Just days before, Hall, 51, was posting Instagram videos with Elmo and Cookie Monster to celebrate her son Moses‘ 3rd birthday. The family also welcomed a new dog, Exodus, whom they gifted the toddler for his b-day.
But, not to worry.
“Thankfully, Moses and my entire family have all tested negative,” Hall continued in her email.
“I am devastated to say the least, but I know we will get through this,” she wrote.
Hall was expected to co-host City Harvest’s 2022 gala with Benjamin Bratt earlier this week but was forced to pull out after the diagnosis. She has also been taping her Emmy Award-winning talk show from home all week.
“The staff has been rushing wardrobe and equipment from the studio at ABC to her home,” an insider tells us.
“Full House” alum Dave Coulier was booked to sit down with Hall in the studio for his first daytime interview since posting his sobriety photo in March. The interview has now been moved to Skype, we’re told.
The show also booked “Dancing With the Stars” pro Cheryl Burke for her first interview since announcing her divorce from “Mrs. Doubtfire” star Matthew Lawrence in February, and we’re told a big Mother’s Day show was in the works as well.
“They’re scrambling to save their big Mother’s Day show. Tamron’s showing no symptoms, and they hope she’ll be back in person for the Mother’s Day show,” the source shares. “They are moving mountains to make it happen.”
