JoJo Siwa opens up about having Coronavirus earlier this year.
The 17-year-old entertainer revealed in a new interview that she has already had it and recovered, as well as her parents and brother Jayden.
“I did end up getting it, the big, dreaded COVID-19. It got through my whole family,” she told ET. “We had headaches, we were tired, we had shortness of breath, we had all the things. All my family actually lost their taste and smell, but all have it back. But I never did.”
“Everyone who gets this virus, it’s gonna affect them differently,” JoJo added. “We were all, like, three days apart.”
JoJo also talked about her split from Mark Bontempo, which was revealed earlier this month.
“Everything’s still OK, we’re still good,” she said. “I am single as a Pringle right now. But Mark and I did break up. We were together for three months and it was great. We had fun, we drove through Taco Bell, I think, 450 times. We had some really fun nights. We never actually had any hard times, we never fought, we never were mad at each other. It was honestly a great time.”
JoJo revealed that work for the both of the them got in the way.
“It just, we had to work. He had to do some things in his life that I wanted to be there for him, but he had to be there 250 percent for himself,” she shared. “And I didn’t want to take away from him being able to be there for himself. So I was like, ‘Listen, we can be friends.’”
She also added that she was the one to end things, but truly wants to stay friends.
“When I ended the relationship I was like, I don’t want to just say ‘let’s be friends’ and then let’s not. Like, let’s be friends and let’s make it normal,” JoJo said. “He deserves nothing but greatness.”
