NEWSNeil Patrick Harris Reveals He And His Family 'Feel Good' After Getting Coronavirus
Neil Patrick Harris revealed that he and his husband, David Burtka, and their 9-year-old twins, Gideon and Harper, are "feeling good" after contracting the novel coronavirus earlier this year.
"It happened very early in the pandemic, like late March, early April," the 47-year-old shared during an interview with the TODAY show on September 15. "We were doing our best before, and I thought I had the flu, and I didn't want to be paranoid about it. And then I lost my sense of taste and smell, which was a big indicator, so we holed up."
While the father of two dished that the family is on the mend six months after being exposed, he described the recovery process as "not pleasant, but we got through it," adding that he and his family now "have antibodies."
"We want to make sure everyone's doing their best to slow this down every way possible, for sure," the How I Met Your Mother star added.
