Golden Girl Betty White, 98, to star in Lifetime Christmas movie
GOLDEN Girl Betty White, 98, is set to star in Lifetime Christmas movie.
The untitled film apparently sees Betty’s character helping potential Santas get ready for the holidays.
Production has been mostly halted on movies and television series because of the pandemic.
Lifetime says its holiday movies are in “various stages of production.”
In the meanwhile, Betty has been staying put at home in her mansion amid the coronavirus.
She’s been self-isolating at home and remains in good health, according to TMZ.
A representative for Betty also confirmed to TODAY: “Betty is fine.”
Sources close to her said she’s limited in-person interactions to only those “equally cautious” of the disease.
She has assistance for errands like grocery shopping so Betty doesn’t have to leave her estate.
The actress is apparently using the quarantine as a time to relax.
Concerned fans have had tweeted: “Can someone please check on Betty White?? We must protect her from coronavirus.”
Another added: “I think we need to protect the queen #bettywhite. I hope she’s in an underground bunker!”
Others wrote: “I wonder how Betty White is doing? I hope she’s safe. #bettywhite”
