Lisa feared the worst and has now gone into isolation for two weeks.

She went on to share tips on how to get through the days with no contact from the outside world.
In a video which was titled “Coronavirus-Isolation Day 4”, she said: “George started feeling ill on Friday evening, but you kind of have to work out your symptoms yourself.
“There’s a checklist of coronavirus symptoms but different people have different symptoms I’m finding.

“George had a fever on Friday and luckily I had a Peppa Pig thermometer in the first aid kit that I bought years ago for the kids.
“I took his temperature and it was raging high, really scary high, and I thought it was flu. He had a headache, he didn’t have a cough, he had a fever.”
Lisa who is now a regular on This Morning went on to say that the illness was not similar to the standard flu and that the symptoms were different.

She added: “It’s really hard to determine what’s going on but you know when you’ve got flu and I think flu feels quite different.
“Headaches for us are quite severe. I’ve got a dry cough, it’s a persistent cough. I haven’t really had a fever though but because I’m very menopausal I get hot flushes.
“I was joking with my friend earlier that it was coronapause. A corona/menopause situation. Maybe it’s too early to joke about those things.”
