Michelle McManus tests positive for Covid while pregnant with second child

Scottish singer Michelle McManus told fans on social media that she had tested positive for Covid-19 this morning.

The 41-year-old singer is pregnant with her second child as she posted on Instagram this morning sharing a photo of her positive lateral flow test.

She captioned the post: "Not quite the Christmas present I was hoping for but thankfully me & bump are now feeling a bit better.

"So very grateful that I had been double vaccinated.

"Thank you to our incredible @nhsggc & all those responsible for the brilliant vaccine roll out across Scotland #covid #covidpositive #pregnancy #vaccination."

Fans rushed to the comments to share their well wishes with the singer.

One commented: "So glad you are feeling better. Lots of love… and I’m also so thankful for the booster rollout. Incredible."

Someone said: "So sorry Michelle, but glad you and bump are on the mend. Take care xxxxx"

"Sorry to read this. Get plenty vitamin supplement inside you," penned another.

The Pop Idol star is currently expecting her second child with her husband Jeff Nimmo in early 2022.

The couple already share a son together, Harry, who was born in February 2020.

Michelle announced her pregnancy last month as she shared a sweet snap of her family as her son covered his eyes to play peekaboo with the bump.
