Florida Georgia Line star Tyler Hubbard has tested positive for COVID-19 and will not be attending the 2020 CMA Awards. More here.
Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard is currently quarantining after testing positive for COVID-19. As can be expected, the country music duo will no longer by performing during Wednesday night’s 2020 CMA Awards.
Hubbard shared through Instagram that he is asymptomatic and quarantining away from his family in his tour bus parked outside their home. Tyler and his wife Hayley have three young children– 2½-year-old Olivia, 15-month-old Luca Reed, and newborn Atlas.
“We’ve been quarantined since Wednesday night when Tyler got his first positive COVID test right after someone told him he may have been exposed … he’s pretty asymptomatic. He did infect two other people and it’s seriously a miracle I don’t have it, because he was barely in the same room [with the other people],” Hayley explained via her Instagram Stories.
“The hardest part for us was going through that list of people we had come into contact with prior to his positive test, thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, we could have infected them and not even known it.’ This has already affected our life and it’s going to affect so many more lives. It’s just such a domino effect. You really realize it when you’re in it.”
She continued, “Tyler was exposed to someone last week who had it, so if I did get it I would probably be showing symptoms tomorrow or the next day. So I’m going to continually get tested and hope that the kids don’t get it if I do have it.”
As an extra precaution, the couple decided to send Atlas to be cared for at their nanny’s home since his immune system is still developing.
