Kim Kardashian reveals she wore a face shield and gloves while changing Kanye West’s sheets as he battled COVID-19 in March: ‘It was so scary and unknown’
Kim Kardashian has revealed that she took care of Kanye West while he recovered from COVID-19 back in March.
The 39-year-old reality star opened up about helping her 43-year-old husband at a time where not much was known about the novel coronavirus in a cover story interview with GRAZIA released on Monday.
She explained: ‘Kanye had it way at the beginning, when nobody really knew what was going on.
It was so scary and unknown. I had my four babies and no-one else in the house to help.’
Kardashian said that he had tested positive around the same time that Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson revealed that they had it in mid-March.
However, during his infamous Forbes interview from July, Kanye revealed that he had it in February.
Regardless of the timetable, Kim stepped up to the plate to take care of her ailing husband.
She explained: ‘I had to go and change his sheets and help him get out of bed when he wasn’t feeling good. It was a challenge because it was so unknown.
‘Changing his sheets with gloves and a face shield was really a scary time.’
Back in July, Kanye described his symptoms as he said: ‘Chills, shaking in the bed, taking hot showers, looking at videos telling me what I’m supposed to do to get over it.
‘I remember someone had told me Drake had the coronavirus and my response was Drake can’t be sicker than me!’
The 33-year-old Canadian rapper later tested negative in March.
Meanwhile Kanye sent his condolences to the Commander In Chief and First Lady Melania Trump on Saturday, as they recover from COVID-19 following the announcement of their diagnoses Thursday night.
The 43-year-old wrote on Twitter: ‘There’s a crying need for civility across the board. We need to and will come together in the name of Jesus.
‘I’m praying for President Trump’s and Melania’s full recovery, just as I would for Joe and Jill Biden if they were stricken, as well as everyone else with COVID-19.’
