Neil Patrick Harris and his family’s battle with COVID-19 lasted for weeks on end. The 47-year-old actor appeared on Thursday’s episode of “The Late Late Show With James Corden” and revealed what it was like when he, his husband, David Burtka, and their 9-year-old twins, Harper and Gideon, were diagnosed with the virus earlier this year. “It was right when all of this was first happening, end of March, early April.
It wasn’t fun,” he admitted. “I didn’t really feel like it was news worthy, in so much as I wasn’t Instagramming about stuff.
We were kinda just dealing with family.” Harris described the illness as “a flu of multiple weeks” that was followed by weeks of “lethargy” that left them “not wanting to exercise, not wanting to do much.”
