Sheree Whitfield – Age 50

The Real Housewives of Atlanta character Sheree Whitfield announced on 15 July that she had contracted COVID-19 and had been off social media while self-quarantining at home. She described the condition as no joke and urged people to stay safe.

She went into more detail on 20 July during an Instagram Live episode of Hollywood Life’s TV Talk and described how she went from a scratchy throat to headaches to aching sinuses. She completely lost her appetite for a week. She believes she picked up the virus during a friend’s small birthday party she attended, and when she contacted the friend, she found out that her whole family had COVID-19.
