“Even though I’ve been fully vaccinated, I’ve just been diagnosed with a breakthrough case of COVID,” Derek said. “I just found out and I feel OK. I feel strong. I’m currently taking advice from medical professionals to get better as fast as I can. I’m currently in quarantine.”

Legacies, like many, many other productions, was affected by the pandemic.

In a new interview, executive producer Brett Matthews opened up about how it affected the trajectory of the upcoming third season.

“It impacted it drastically, in one sense,” he told ComicBook.com. “I think I’d literally finished like writing the last line of Episode 20, which we thought was the finale when we had to shut down.”

“So, when we made the decision to sort of wind down the show for a year because we just didn’t feel like it was safe to continue so, like you said, luckily we were sort of able to engineer what feels like an ending and leave storylines in a good cliffhanger-y place in Episode 16,” Brett added. “But we sort of made the decision that we still wanted to give stories from Season 2 their proper conclusion so you will see, you know, certain things bleed over and play out over the first couple of episodes of Season 3 before we sort of begin the majority of the new material post-COVID in episode five.”

Legacies season three will pick up where season two left off for the first four episodes.

Tune in to the season premiere TOMORROW (January 21) at 9pm ET on The CW. Check out the episode synopsis here!

Paul Wesley is calling out United Airlines for their lack of concern regarding Coronavirus safety.

The Tell Me a Story actor shared a few tweets slamming the airline and called for a boycott.

“.@United you treat people like trash. And this is exactly why your airline is consistently ranked as the worst airline in America. You jam pack all of your seats and have zero regard for coronavirus. It’s all money and numbers to you,” he wrote in one tweet.

“Boycott @united fly @Delta instead. Delta clears out their seats and makes sure it’s not overcrowded. They care about your safety even if it costs them money. @united could care less,” Paul added.

The Originals and Batwoman actor Sebastian Roché responded to Paul’s tweet and said, “I agree, i haven’t flown them for years.”

Paul replied, “I will NEVER fly @united – I don’t care if they are the only airline flying to a certain city. I’d rather take a train or a boat. Complete disregard for customers or virus concerns. They could care less. @united”

Paul‘s tweets come a couple of weeks after another set of tweets had gone viral saying a man died of COVID-19 on a United flight. See the official details about that situation.

Kira Kosarin is showing her appreciation for her boyfriend Max Chester for taking care of her the last couple of weeks.

The 23-year-old singer and actress revealed on Monday afternoon (December 21) that they both tested positive for Coronavirus.

“Hi friends. I wanted to wait till I was feeling better to let you know, but I’ve been fighting COVID-19 the last couple weeks,” she shared in one post. “LA is the most infected city in the world right now, and so despite being careful and cautious last 9 months, I managed to get the virus.”

“My symptoms have been very manageable, that of a bad cold/mild flu. The hardest part has been the ongoing lack of taste and smell (it’s far more disorienting and disheartening than I could have imagined!), but other than that (and some lingering cough/fatigue), I’m on the mend now,” Kira added.

“Shoutout to this angel who has been asymptomatic and taking care of me this past two weeks while quarantined together. The hardest days are infinitely better with you by my side and I’ll gladly be stuck in a one bedroom apartment for 14-days with you any time ❤️ @immaxchester,” she shared in another post for Max.

“Endless sleepovers with favourite person in the world? Yes pls ❤️,” Max commented on the post. Aww!
