The entertainment reporter, 65, updated fans on his wellbeing via his Instagram, and shared the surprise delivery from Luke Mangan which lifted his spirits.
In the footage, while keeping a safe distance, Luke jokingly said: "Special delivery! Don't breathe!"
"Lukey! I'm not breathing. Jesus... Beats the s**t out of Uber Eats! I love you Lukey! It's only me you know. What's in there?" Richard replied.
The celebrity chef told his pal that the bag contained "steak, fish and all the good things you need" while a shot of the bag also showed prosciutto and olive oil.
"I'm only here for a few days you know!" Richard replied.
Luke said he "couldn't wait until Richard was out" and said they should get a drink once his self-isolation period ends, before driving off.
Going back into his home, Richard said: "Oh my God! You're going to make me cry!"
Richard updated his fans on Thursday about his current prognosis, saying he still had no symptoms and felt fine.
