He then told his followers that he'll be missing from the TV this week, and spoke about how he is feeling.
He said: "So good people, at the weekend, I tested positive for Covid-19 after avoiding it for almost two years. I feel fluey and achey, and I have pains. I can't taste anything or smell much, but other than that, I'm fine.
"Anyway, I thought I'd just let you know and I'll be back hopefully on The Today Show next week. Best of luck to Derek Mooney and Marty Morrissey who are filling in for the rest of the week."
He added: 'God bless and stay safe everyone!"
