She took to Twitter to say: “For last 2 weeks I’ve had all symptoms of C19 (tho haven’t been tested).”
She added she was “fully recovered” now.
The 54-year-old also encouraged followers to watch a You Tube video on a technique that can help if patients of COVID-19 are struggling to breathe.
“Please watch this doc from Queens Hospital [UK] explain how to relieve respiratory symptoms,” she wrote.
“[I] did this on doc husband’s advice.”
She continued: “I’m fully recovered & technique helped a lot.”
JK was inundated with well wishes following her revlations.
“Thank you for your kind and lovely messages! I really am completely recovered and wanted to share a technique that’s recommended by doctors, costs nothing, has no nasty side effects but could help you/your loved ones a lot, as it did me,” she added.
