"And it just goes to show you, she's three years of age, that children can get COVID."

Jack Osbourne, 34, lives with multiple sclerosis (MS) and some patients with MS are considered high risk.

He has three daughters with wife Lisa Stelly – Pearl, eight, Andy, five, and Minnie.

Osbourne said that after coming into close contact with someone who has been diagnosed with coronavirus, she was following protocols and self-isolating, despite testing negative for the virus herself.

She said: "Oh my Lord, I want to see you guys so bad. I've got one more week left of quarantining and then I'm out.

"And as I say, I don't have it. I keep testing negative, but, you know, you have to be safe."

Osbourne added that her son Jack was "equally as upset because he was planning on coming to the studio with me just to wish you good luck."
