The Young and the Restless spoilers – Jordi Vilasuo, his wife and daughters have all had coronavirus
As we are all aware, COVID-19 is striking people across the globe, without regard for gender, race, socioeconomic status, etc. Jordi is no one of the many celebs who have not only had a brush with the insidious virus but thankfully has come out on the other side, healthy and well.
According to the handsome and talented actor, after he, his wife, and two daughters contracted the virus the family had a discussion as to whether or not they should share the information. In the end, they decided to discuss it, “in the hope of possibly being a source of information or comfort to someone who might be in a similar situation.”
