Another Game Of Thrones actor has seemingly confirmed they’ve got coronavirus, as Indira Varma shared her illness tonight.
The actress joined the HBO series in season four and played Ellaria Sand from 2014-2017.
At the moment she’s starring in the stage production of The Seagull alongside fellow GOT alumni Emilia Clarke at the Playhouse Theatre in London.
On Wednesday she shared photos from the production, in which she’s cosying up to her co-stars, as it was confirmed the play had been suspended.
In the caption she mentioned the Covid-19 pandemic and said she was ‘sick in bed with it’, while urging others to help one another out during the crisis.
‘So sad our and so many other shows around the world have gone dark affected by the Covid-19 pandemic,’ she wrote.
‘We hope to be back soon and urge you all (and the govt) to support us when we do.’
Indira continued: ‘I’m in bed with it and it’s not nice. Stay safe and healthy and be kind to your fellow people.’
Metro.co.uk contacted reps for comment.
Fans immediately rushed to the comments to share their well wishes, and for a speedy recovery.
Indira’s post comes just two days after fellow GOT star Kristofer Hivju revealed he tested positive for coronavirus, as the Covid-19 condition continues to spread around the world.
The Tormund Giantsbane actor shared a lengthy statement to Instagram on Monday in which he explained he was self-isolating at home in Norway.
Sharing a selfie, Kristofer wrote: ‘Greetings from Norway! Sorry to say that I, today, have tested positive for COVID19, Corona virus. My familiy and I are self-isolating at home for as long as it takes.
‘We are in good health – I only have mild symptoms of a cold. [sic].’
Encouraging the public to remain safe and keep practicing good hygiene to help stop the spread of the virus, the 41-year-old continued: ‘There are people at higher risk for who this virus might be a devastating diagnosis, so I urge all of you to be extremely careful; wash your hands, keep 1,5 meters distance from others, go in quarantine; just do everything you can to stop the virus from spreading.’
He concluded his Instagram post by encouraging his followers to visit their country’s disease controls website and follow all the regulations to stay safe.
Other celebrities including Hanks and Idris Elba have also tested positive for coronavirus, as they continued to self-isolate as they recovered.
