“As much as I felt like I could push through whatever I was feeling to do #WWHL from home, we’re putting a pin in that for now so I can focus on getting better,” the television host wrote.

Cohen also thanked the medical professionals for their tireless work and urged the public to stay home and stay healthy.

Cohen’s announcement came just hours after he expressed his intention to continue working from home. He revealed then that he would be filming his show at home and aptly titled it, “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen @ Home.”

He told Variety that he would shoot the show himself in order to continue entertaining viewers who are obligated to stay home due to the threat of the Coronavirus. He intended to interview stars via FaceTime.

At one point, he showed up to his workspace in just a robe. At another time, he proudly showed off his son, Ben who had begun to take his first steps.
