Brisbane’s 97.3 FM’s breakfast show host Robin Bailey confirmed on air this morning “I got Rona, I’ve tested positive to the Coronavirus”. 

Zooming in from home and speaking to her on air buddy Terry Hansen, who popped in to the 97.3 studios, Robin shared the news with 97.3FM listeners that she and her sons Fin, Lewin and Piper have all tested positive for COVID-19.

Explaining how she contracted COVID, Robin says she was “…pretty sure it happened on the Gold Coast on New Year’s Eve”.

Robin spoke about having three very sick kids at home, saying she was the last one to fall ill last Wednesday.  She spent three days driving around Brisbane to get tested, with the results arriving on Monday revealing she was positive.

Robin says, “I’ve been pretty sick. I’m not going to trivialise it.  None of us in hospital, but it’s a bitch!.”

 She spoke about today being the second  day she’s  been upright and that she can re-enter the world tomorrow, adding, “it’s been an interesting ten days, but there’s also been some very gorgeous moments like I’ve had all my kids here, and they couldn’t leave.”

With Robin recovering from COVID,  the return of Robin and Terry to 97.3 for 2022 has been postponed until Monday January 24, but they will be back on air next Monday to reveal who will join them on the breakfast show this year.
