The media personality has been a member of the main cast of the Dallas version of the Real Housewives franchise since its second season; the show’s fifth season is set to debut in January.
Simmons is not the only real housewife to contract the virus, as several others scaled up from various media franchise programs have been infected in the past.
In July, Shannon Beador, who appears in the program’s iteration in Orange County, announced that she had contracted the coronavirus, along with her daughters.
Severe condition: according to a representative of the reality star, his oxygen levels when entering a hospital were considered “borderline”; she is seen with Travis Hollman and Jeremy Lock in 2018
Maintaining control: Although no other cases in the RHOD suite have been reported, other members of the cast and crew from different Real Housewives programs have contracted the virus previously
Several members of the Beverly Hills version of the program have recently undergone treatment for the disease, including Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley and Kathy Hilton.
Richards recently posted on his Instagram detailing how she and her sister finally overcame the effects of the virus after weeks of various illnesses.
In November, production on the program’s Atlanta iteration ended after a team member began to experience characteristic symptoms of COVID-19.
A month earlier, filming for the New York version was interrupted for the same reason; none of the housewives tested positive for the virus.
Getting better: Simmons’ representative noted that she was being treated with remdesivir, which was approved to treat COVID-19 in several countries; she is seen in 2019
