Gold Coast Covid-19: Tammy Hembrow and Hayley Anderson share their struggles with Covid-19

Covid-19 has infiltrated the Gold Coast influencer community, with one social media personality saying the hardest part is “not being able to kiss my kids”.

THE Gold Coast’s Instagram sensation Tammy Hembrow has contracted Covid-19, saying the hardest part is “not being able to kiss my kids”.

Hembrow spent New Year’s Eve at home after she tested positive to the virus.

She posted to her Instagram on Monday to update her 13.8m followers and said she felt like she was slowly getting better.

Tammy Hembrow says the worst thing about Covid-19 is 'not being able to kiss my kids'.

“The past couple of days I haven’t been able to get out of bed,” Ms Hembrow said.

“I had a fever, the worst headaches and body aches. I now am just super tired, congested and have a cough.”

As a mother of two with a third on the way, Ms Hembrow said she struggled with separating herself from her children Saskia and Wolf.

“The hardest thing about Covid for me is literally not being able to kiss my kids,” she said.

“I never realised until now how many times a day I kiss my kids.

“I am just trying to not share germs with them but I just want to smother them.”

She said both her children had no symptoms and her pregnancy was not affected by the virus.

“I have been feeling baby girl kicking away in there, she seems as fine as ever,’ Ms Hembrow said.

“Thanks for all the love, the well wishes and big hugs to anyone else who is isolating right now … I feel you.”

Gold Coast creator Hayley Anderson tested positive to the virus on Sunday and said she suffered with vomiting, shivering, sweating and aches.

“It hurt to even lift a water bottle,” she shared to her 403,000 followers.

While rapid antigen tests were sold out across the Gold Coast and pressure was on PCR testing centres where wait times remained in the hours, her fanbase pulled some strings.

After a call-out for help on her Instagram story, by Sunday afternoon she received a package from one of her followers containing tests and gummy bears.

The note read: “Get well soon and take care in isolation.”

“I have the best followers,” Ms Anderson said.
