Heidi Klum has been feeling sick for quite some time and is worried she may have contracted the coronavirus.

The former supermodel took to Instagram on Friday saying she started "feeling feverish" but had not yet gotten the test.

But on Sunday she shared an update saying she’s awaiting her results, and spending time away from her husband, guitarist Tom Kaulitz, who took the test as well.

"To be safe, we are staying apart until we get the results of our coronavirus tests back. We don’t want to spread germs and risk others getting sicker... even each other!

"As much as I want to embrace him and kiss him, it is more important to do the right thing and not spread further,” the 46-year-old captioned a video of her kissing her husband through a glass door.

Like many of you, I also have been sick all week and, unfortunately, my husband who returned from his tour a couple of days ago is also feeling ill. To be safe, we are staying apart until we get the results of our Coronavirus tests (that we were finally able to get today) back. We don’t want to spread germs and risk others getting sicker... even each other! As much as I want to embrace him and kiss him, it is more important to do the right thing and not spread further. ?? These are strange times... but in these moments, you remember what’s really important- the people you love and keeping them safe. Social distancing is what we all need to do right now to be responsible citizens of the world. We are all in this together and it is up to us to protect our loved ones, and our neighbors and our communities. Please listen to the officials and stay at home if you can and physically distance yourself from other people… especially if you are not feeling well. I see all the beautiful things people are doing for each other all over the globe and that gives me hope! Sending all of you love and positivity and healing vibes… together we can get through this but we need to be proactive so that we can all have a bright and healthy future. ??????????? #socialdistancing #washyourhands #stayput #bekindtoeachother
