“Hi everybody, it is day seven for me which I guess is a week in the old money,” Richard said.
“Day four since I got the bad phone call, and so far today is a pretty good day,” he added.
The 65-year-old then went on to reveal that his son Christian – whom he has been in contact with recently – tested negative to the virus.
“Christian, my son and his dance partner Lily [Cornish] both [tested] negative so they’re still in business [on Dancing With The Stars], huge relief. I’m so happy when people let me know that they’re negative, it’s great,” he revealed.
Richard wrapped up the video by thanking his fans for their “love” adding that we are “all in this together”.
Wilkins broke his silence after testing positive for Coronavirus on Sunday, calling his diagnosis a “bizarre feeling”.
“Hey… sincere thanks for all the messages… I really appreciate it,” he said.
“It’s actually a bizarre feeling to have tested positive to this thing we’ve all been talking about.
“I feel 100 per cent… no symptoms at all! Thanks again… love to all RW xx”
The news comes days after 65-year-old Wilkins interviewed American actress, Rita Wilson in Sydney on March 7.
She and her husband, actor Tom Hanks, tested positive for the virus last week and remain in hospital in Queensland.
Hanks is in town to film Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis biopic.
