Richard Schiff and wife Sheila Kelley have coronavirus

‘The Good Doctor’ actor Richard Schiff and his wife, Sheila Kelley, have been diagnosed with coronavirus.

Richard Schiff and his wife have been diagnosed with coronavirus.

The 65-year-old star and his spouse Sheila Kelley tested positive for the virus last week and are currently “recovering” at home, where they have found their symptoms change “radically” from hour to hour.

Richard revealed on Twitter: “On Election Day I tested positive for Covid-19. This has been the most bizarre week of our lives.

@thesheilakelley is also positive. This is tough.

“We are determined to find a way to health again. We root for everyone out there who are struggling with this thing. Love from here.”

And Sheila revealed: “Richard and I have some news. We have both tested positive for COVID-19.

“We‘re quarantined in our home in Vancouver, recovering. This virus is a slippery sucker. One minute you feel almost fine and the next you can’t catch your breath. Symptoms change radically daily even hourly.

“I am grateful for @s.factor.official embodiment practice as it tunes me deeply into my body. It is helping me cope from minute to minute.

She also wrote: “We are hanging in there. Spiraling love from one to the other. That and deep slow long breaths.”

The 59-year-old actress lent her support to others suffering from the virus and urged those who haven’t contracted it so far to do what they can to “stay healthy”.

She wrote: “For those of you who do not have this virus stay healthy keep practicing physical distancing.

“If you have Covid we’re in this together. Breath deeply. Breath slowly. Breath fully. We will get through this together (sic)”

While Richard appears as Dr. Aaron Glassman in ‘The Good Doctor’ and Sheila has a recurring role as his on-screen wife, production on the show has continued while the pair self isolate, though the filming schedule has changed to accommodate their absence.

It is believed they contracted the virus outside of work as an on-set transmission automatically sparks a production shutdown.
