Khloe Kardashian says ‘being taken away’ from daughter True, 2, after testing positive for covid was ‘heart-wrenching’
KHLOE Kardashian thought the “hardest part” about getting coronavirus was having to isolate away from her two-year-old daughter, True.
The KUWTK star, 36, battled vomiting, a burning cough and crippling migraines when she contracted the virus earlier this year.
Khloe said it was “heart-wrenching” having to stay away from True – who she shares with Tristan Thompson – for 16 days.
“I don’t care about how beautiful of a place you have, being taken away from your child – because I couldn’t be around my daughter – was the most heart-wrenching thing,” she said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Thursday.
The E! star recalled how “scared” she felt when she tested positive for the deadly disease.
“At the very beginning, I tested positive and it was so incredibly scary,” she said.
Khloe went on: “I mean, it’s still scary, but especially then, when the whole world was shutting down, and we didn’t have really any information, or the information we had just changed every single day.”
The reality star said she “felt really quickly on” that she was “getting sick with something”.
“I remember I just wore a mask, I remember I wore gloves, just because speculation all about COVID, but nobody really knew, and we were all like, ‘There’s no way I could have COVID,'” she said.
Khloe learned she had contracted the virus when her whole family were tested in March – and said her loved ones were “really alarmed” by her diagnosis.
While “everyone else tested negative,” the entrepreneur had to quarantine in her room for about 16 days while she recovered.
“We had to wait until I had negative test results to leave,” Khloe explained.
Her brother-in-law Kanye West tested positive for coronavirus in February and was looked after by his wife Kim Kardashian.
“It was so scary and unknown. I had my four babies and no-one else in the house to help,” Kim recalled to Grazia magazine.
Kim added: “Changing his sheets with gloves and a face shield was really a scary time.”
Khloe detailed her “really bad” symptoms in a preview from Thursday’s episode of KUWTK.
The clip shows Khloe, lying her bed and saying: ”Just found out that I do have corona. I have been in my room. It’s gonna be fine, but it was really bad for a couple days.”
