Charlie Hunnam has revealed he battled Covid-19 earlier this year, as he shared fears he had contracted the virus again for a second time.
The British actor told Jimmy Kimmel this weekend that he was diagnosed with the coronavirus "very early on" in the pandemic, but only suffered mild symptoms.
"It wasn't particularly acute. I just lost my sense of taste and smell for about 10 days and had a little bit of fatigue," the King Arthur star told the chat show host in an interview filmed remotely.
"I was grinding up the coffee and realised I couldn’t smell at all."
Hunnam, 40, also revealed he was suffering flu-like symptoms during the interview, broadcast on Friday, November 6.
He told Kimmel he had "a little bit of a persistent fever, a dry cough, a little bit of fatigue", fearing it "could be Covid-19".
However, the Sons of Anarchy star added that he had taken a test, which had returned a negative result.
"I could be unfairly jumping to conclusions, but it feels consistent [with Covid-19 symptoms]," Hunnam said. "This feels very, very different [to what I had earlier this year]. This feels much more like flu.
"I don't know how I would have gotten sick again, because I have not left the house in six months, other than to take my new cat to the vet."
Hunnam is the latest famous face to reveal he has caught Covid-19; stars including Tom Hanks, Idris Elba, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Khloe Kardashian have all opened up about their experiences with the coronavirus.
Earlier this month, it was also revealed that Prince William had contracted Covid-19 in April.
