“But I’m alright.”

Clodagh McKenna said: “Hope you’re ok.”

A fan added: “Get well soon,” followed by a red love heart emoji.

It comes after Vanessa confirmed she had tested positive for Covid.

She said in an Instagram video of herself holding up a positive lateral flow test: “Oh well, here it is. I’ve got Covid.

“Gosh, I don’t really know what to say. It’s a bit of a shock because I don’t feel that bad, I feel in fact okay.”

Vanessa added that she had just been in the This Morning studio.

She said: “I’ve just did This Morning and I gave a right cough when I was on the telly and I thought that’s a bit weird.

“Got on the back of the motorbike to come home again and felt slightly queasy which I never never do.”
