Garth Brooks has announced that his ‘Queen’ Trisha Yearwood has tested positive to the dreaded Coronavirus. This comes a few days after they were exposed to the virus, but his test result has been negative.
Garth Brooks who has been in quarantine together with Yearwood,
at their home in Tennessee after they were exposed to the virus when a member of their team tested positive recently, confirmed Yearwood test result on Wednesday.
“The Queen and I have now tested twice,” said Garth Brooks, who is currently still testing negative for COVID-19. The couple were forced to wait a week after their initial exposure to the virus for testing because of severe winter weather.
“Officially, she’s diagnosed as ‘on her way out of the tunnel’ now, though, which I’m extremely thankful for,” Garth Brooks added.
“Anyone who knows me knows my world begins and ends with Miss Yearwood, so she and I will ride through this together.”
Brooks continued to say that “anyone who knows” Yearwood “knows she’s a fighter and she’s been doing everything right, so I know we’ll walk out the other side of this thing together.”
“She’s tough. She’s stronger than me,” Brooks said of his wife, who is still experiencing symptoms.
The country star, who performed at President Joe Biden’s inauguration last month, said that there is some concern over the potential long-term effects COVID-19 could have on Yearwood.
“Living with her, I sometimes take it for granted she’s one of the greatest voices in all of music, so the possible long-term effects on her concern me as her husband and as a fan,” he said. “We’re very lucky she is currently under the greatest care in the best city for treating and healing singers.”
The duo released a duet, “Shallow,” earlier this month.
Fans have been sending in their love on social media to the couple.
