Trisha Yearwood Tests Positive For Covid-19

Trisha Yearwood has tested positive for COVID-19. The country couple’s team shared a note from the duo on Facebook, revealing the news on Wednesday (Feb. 24). 
Brooks, meanwhile, remains negative for the virus. 


“The Queen and I have now tested twice. Officially, she’s diagnosed as ‘on her way out of the tunnel’ now, though, which I’m extremely thankful for," Brooks says. "Anyone who knows me knows my world begins and ends with Miss Yearwood, so she and I will ride through this together. And anyone who knows her 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."


We learned that Trisha does have symptoms, but Garth did not share what they are. He continued to share his love for his wife.


"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,” Brooks admits. “We’re very lucky she is currently under the greatest care in the best city for treating and healing singers.”


Brooks asks for prayers and well wishes for Yearwood. "She's tough. She's stronger than me," he says, but adds that he, too, is praying for her.
