Joan Collins received the COVID-19 vaccine, she announced to fans on Sunday.
The 87 year old Dynasty star posted a picture of you – wearing a face mask with a floral print and a dress – getting the injection in a doctor’s office in London.
The English actress told fans that she was “delighted” to receive the vaccine, which she noted was from AstraZeneca. This vaccine was approved by the United Kingdom in late December, but has not yet been approved in the United States, where it is in the midst of a vaccine trial.
The British lady called her vaccination a “painless and ongoing procedure” that she had done on “the same day as our queen” in reference to Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip who announced on Saturday that they had also received the vaccine.
Other notable celebrities in the UK – who are prioritizing citizens aged 80 and over, after residents and nursing home staff – include actor Ian McKellen, 81, who said he was “euphoric” about receiving his first round in mid-December, and Great British Baking Show Judge Prue Leith, 80 years old.
Collins also told Instagram followers that she will appear on Good Morning Britain on Monday to share more details of her vaccination experience.
