Piers Morgan\'s youngest son has shown "mild symptoms" of coronavirus.
The \'Good Morning Britain\' presenter - who has three boys with his ex-wife Marion Shalloe and a daughter with wife Celia Walden - revealed the news on ITV\'s breakfast show on Wednesday (01.04.20) while discussing the respiratory illness.
He said: "One of my sons had it in a much milder way. My youngest boy.
"I think most people are associating [lack of taste and smell] that with the virus, it\'s a very unnerving thing to get...
"Yes, he had mild symptoms which have cleared up now."
The 55-year-old broadcaster has been vocal about the UK government ordering people to stay inside to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
He tweeted this week: "Already hearing people whine \'I can\'t cope with much more of this!\' because they have to sit inside watching TV.
"The lockdown\'s lasted 8 days. World War 2 lasted 5 YEARS. So man up, show some gumption, & help others rather than wallow in pathetic self-pity."
His comments come after he was reunited with co-star Susanna Reid this week as she returned to the programme after a two-week period of self-isolation after her son showed coronavirus symptoms.
Appearing on Tuesday\'s show (31.03.20), Susanna - who still appeared on the show at times via video link - said: "I have to say it\'s good to be back. I had a slightly different co-presenter when I was at home broadcasting from the sofa, and presented with Sookie [her cat].
"A little quieter than normal proceedings, just sitting on my lap. Sorry, I\'m not social distancing from the cat."
However, Susanna - who has sons Sam, 18, Finn, 16, and Jack, 15, with her ex-partner Dominic Cotton - admitted she\'s concerned her family are still susceptible to catching the virus.
Piers responded: "None of you may have had the virus - this is the problem. Susanna and her sons might go out into the big wild world and one of them might get it."
