Larsa Pippen ‘having a hard time breathing’ as coronavirus battle intensifies

Larsa Pippen has revealed that she is "having a hard time breathing" as she battles coronavirus.

The 46-year-old former star of Real Housewives of Miami admitted she was ill with Covid-19 in a hastily deleted Instagram post over the weekend.

It would seem that her fight has become harder as she is hit with respiratory problems and is under the care of doctors who are helping her on the road to feeling better.

The reality star has had a difficult time of late after she revealed that she had been with Tristan Thompson before the NBA star had hooked up with Khloe Kardashian.

That reveal has seen her jettisoned from the Kardashians inner circle, very much like Jordyn Woods was after she tried to kiss Tristan at a house party.

While this drama swirled around in her life, Larsa posted on a pic on her Instagram Story of her laid up in a hospital bed along with the caption: "I’ve been battling Covid for a week. It’s no joke I’ve never felt pain like this!”

Hollywood Life has now confirmed that a rep for Larsa has said that the RHOM star has tested positive and that she was a good few days into her fight.

The representative said: "Yes she has been battling it for a week. She’s had the worst body aches and hard time breathing.

"We have a doctor coming to the house caring for her."

It comes in the week after Larsa revealed all about her time with Tristan in a bombshell interview with Dax Holt and Adam Glyn on their Hollywood Raw podcast.

Larsa was one of Kim's closest friends and confidantes but her big reveal saw all the KarJenners unfollow her on Instagram.

She then took aim at Kanye West as she felt he "brainwashed" the family against her.

Larsa said: "I just feel like Kanye was in a place where he really didn’t trust anyone with Kim.

“I was his go-to person to call when he wasn’t happy with X, Y and Z. How that turned? Maybe because I blocked him on my phone because I couldn’t bear taking his calls anymore. I can’t. I’m drained."

A source close to the Kardashians has said that Larsa will no longer be part of the inner circle and that the family will not speak to her again.

They said: “The family is definitely disappointed and angry Larsa would share what she did in the interview, but not really surprised because they feel like Larsa is just using them to further her career at this point."
