Comic Ali Wentworth has confirmed she has tested positive for coronavirus, saying, “I’ve never been sicker.”

Wentworth, 55, posted a photo from her bed as she wrote on Instagram that she was suffering from “high fever. Horrific body aches.. Heavy chest. I’m quarantined from my family. This is pure misery #stayhome”

Her husband, “Good Morning America” anchor George Stephanopoulos, announced on Wednesday that he will be working from home for the foreseeable future after Wentworth developed symptoms of the deadly illness.

Stephanopoulos, 59, joined the morning show from his at-home studio set-up, with his co-anchor Michael Strahan, explaining to the audience that the star was “coming to us from his home.”

“Yeah, I’m broadcasting from home right now,” Stephanopoulos chimed in. “Ali has developed some symptoms so she’s upstairs resting right now.”

Last week, Stephanopoulos’ “GMA” co-anchor and two-time cancer survivor Robin Roberts revealed that she would be working from a studio in her basement after doctors urged her to avoid the studio and remain quarantined at home.

Wentworth’s famous pals were quick to wish her well as Sarah Jessica Parker wrote: “No. Oh Ali. I’m so, so sorry. So sorry. I’m sure you are in good hands, but sending love.”

Filmmaker Nancy Meyers added: “Ali, you are strong and young (yes, don’t argue) and you will be ok. I know you will! Hang in there! Stay positive.I’m sorry it hurts. Sending a big virtual hug.”
