She told her followers how she was sent wrong information about the illness that sent her anxiety “through the roof”.
The post made the untrue claim that kids would be taken to the hospital by paramedics without their parents.
But luckily, she found the appropriate advice from This Morning’s Dr Ranj, who sent her information to calm her down.
Kerry captioned the image: “Just been sent this which has the correct information on! Which makes me and I’m sure many others so much better!
“Being a mother of 5 and my eldest having the symptoms it’s been really scary stay safe people and stay home 
thank you to @drranj for sending me this xxx”
Kerry hasn’t said to what extent her eldest is suffering from the symptoms or if she’s been officially tested.
Earlier in the month, Kerry commented how she feared the global pandemic would have left her stranded in the Maldives with her boyfriend Ryan Mahoney.
Kerry told the Loose Women panel: “Honestly, I had a bit of a panic attack the last three days [about getting home], got really anxious.

“As much as I complain, you know what it’s like being a mum, the kids are driving me crazy, I want a bit of a break, the last three days I started getting really bad anxiety.

“And within five minutes they were doing my head in.”
Kerry is also mother to Lilly-Sue, 17, Heidi, 13, Maxwell, 11, and Dylan-Jorge, 5.
