FORMER Dynasty actress Emma Samms, who lives in Stroud, has revealed that she has coronavirus.
Emma, who famously starred in Dynasty and The Colbys, shared the news on Twitter yesterday.
The soap star also shared her sadness at not being able to be with her daughter Micha on her 22nd birthday, as she is still self-isolating after contracting the virus.
She wrote: "This is my beautiful daughter Micha. It’s her 22nd birthday today but she’s on her own and I’m on day 10 of dealing with coronavirus, so I can’t even give her a hug."
This is my beautiful daughter Micha. It’s her 22nd birthday today but she’s on her own and I’m on day 10 of dealing with coronavirus, so I can’t even give her a hug. Please could you all wish her a Happy Birthday? And RT?
