Nicole Polizzi, best known by her nickname Snooki, has recently revealed that she has been tested positive for COVID-19.
The 33-year-old Jersey Shore alum posted a photo of herself wearing a mask while holding a bouquet at home on Instagram, captioning, “Happy Valentine’s Day! This one a bit different…I have Covid. I’ve been isolated in my room since I found out. My family & I have been super cautious & careful, so this is super scary.”
Polizzi has three kids with husband Jionni LaValle, sons Angelo James, 20 months, and Lorenzo Dominic, 8, and daughter Giovanna Marie, 6.
She said her symptoms “started out as just a bad sinus cold and headache, stuffy nose & mild cough,” adding that she then felt “super tired and ended up napping all day which made me go get tested.”
“Today i just feel groggy,” Polizzi added. “I ended up losing my taste and smell last night. It’s fricken weird. I had a greasy cheese pizza & couldn’t taste a damn thing. WHAT A SIN.”
“The rest of my family tested negative, so I am here hiding out in my bedroom until this is over,” she continued. “Slide over to the next pic. I woke up to roses and chocolates thrown on my floor from my family. Still showing my quarantine ass Love on Valentine’s Day! Appreciate all of your concerns, but I am ok! Please stay safe everyone!”
On her Instagram Story, Polizzi said, “I feel like I ran a marathon,” admitting that the worst part is “not being able to taste.”
“I’m staying away from my family and we’re all going to self-quarantine until this is over,” the reality TV personality added. The story was first published on PEOPLE.
