“I also learned that my test came back positive for COVID, which is really no surprise given that I have been here for a couple of weeks,” he said on GMA on Monday. “But I am one of those I guess cases that are asymptomatic. I have never had a fever. Never had chills. Never had a headache. Never had a cough. Never had shortness of breath. I’m feeling great.”
He also said that his wife is recovering well.
He told co-anchors Robin Roberts and Michael Strahan, “She is doing much much better. …She is going on her fifth day now with no fever which is a good sign. Slowly getting out of bed a little bit more each day. So we are really happy about that.”
Wentworth revealed her diagnosis on April 1, and talked about her experience in a video that ran on the show. At the time, Stephanopoulos said that he “wonder myself if I already had a mild version and just didn’t know it.”
