    Carol Vorderman has been left bedbound for two days after being struck down by an illness as she issued a health update online.<\/p>\n

    Her loyal legion of fans are used to seeing the Welsh beauty sharing brain-scratching puzzles on her podcast Perfect 10.<\/p>\n

    But the former Countdown star was forced to take a break from her busy schedule after she contracted Covid-19 over the weekend.<\/p>\n

    On Tuesday (September 18), the mum-of-two took to Instagram where she reassured fans that she is feeling much better despite her illness.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    In a short video she filmed in a white nightie from her bed, she explained: \u201cI\u2019m speaking to you from my bed because I\u2019ve got this, yes Covid. And I\u2019ve slept for about two days \u2013 well not really \u2013 and I feel great now, I feel as though I'm ready to get back to work.<\/p>\n

    \u201cI'll do another test later and hopefully it\u2019s negative, that\u2019s my news. And for the first time I've put a nightie on.<\/p>\n

    \u201cI thought it\u2019s best to do that before I do the video,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    The TV legend captioned the post: \u201cCovid Mamma here. Slept for what seems like two days. Ha and feel great now [two thumbs up emojis].<\/p>\n

    \u201cMind you scruff bomb here. Not brushed my hair for two days either [cry-laughing emoji, heart emoji].<\/p>\n

    \u201cFound a nightie to put on before I did this video, thought best or it could have turned into something else entirely… lols [cry-laughing emoji].\u201d<\/p>\n

    Former Coronation Street star Kym Marsh captioned the post: \u201cHope you\u2019re ok darling. I\u2019ve had it again recently and it was horrid!\u201d which she signed off with three kisses.\u201d <\/p>\n

    Helen Flanagan added: \u201cLove you Carol [heart emoji]\u201d as Davina McCall simply captioned four heart emojis.<\/p>\n
