Jim Parsons shared on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon that he and husband Todd Spiewak contracted COVID-19 back in March.
On Monday night Parsons told Fallon of his experience with the coronavirus.
We didnt know what it was, we know we had colds and we lost all sense of smell and taste, the Hollywood actor told Fallon. It defied the descriptions for me, I didnt realize how taste and smell could be gone.
After describing his time learning about his diagnosis, Parsons said that he and his partner grieved not being able to taste any of the food at home, as eating more became a favorite activity during the pandemic. The conversation then moved on to the two television stars discussing what kept them busy during quarantine.
Parsons said that he has busied himself with creative writing classes and bleaching his hair, the latter which Fallon also did, though years ago.
Fallon then noted that the last time Parsons appeared on the show, he was still acting on the Big Bang Theory. When asked about what life was like after the show ended, Parsons likened it to a death.
It reminds me when someone died or passes and it feels so monumental for a moment and you think its never going to end then nine months go by and youre like life carries on. It was bittersweet when it ended but I feel fine.
Watch the entire segment below.
Surprised it’s not AIDS.
Stop frequenting gay clubs.
Dont most people lose their sense of smell and taste with a bad cold?
I lose my sense of taste (for a little while at least) just about every time I get a cold. Surprised this is so unusual for so many people.
Did he take HCQ?
Yes
The loss is smell is interesting.
Uh, yeah. Yuppers. You got it. Somehow the rest of the world has forgotten this.
The Big Bang Theory was one of the last great network shows. I just ordered the entire series on Blu-Ray.
I believe them when they say they had it.
And it just reinforces ours and Trump’s thoughts.
None of the actors who said they had it died...of all the actors that have said they had it, no one said it was incredibly horrible.
It’s like talking about having the flu like it was something exotic and terrifying.
It’s a virus. It’s dangerous in old people and those with co morbid conditions.
Or else this guy and his hus...can’t sasy it and Tom Hanks and The Rock and whomever else would ALL BE DEAD.
It reminds me when someone died or passes and it feels so monumental for a moment and you think its never going to end then nine months go by and youre like life carries on. It was bittersweet when it ended but I feel fine.
Um...YOU are the one that ended the show, ya douche, LOL!
Celebre-tards. Is there anything they don’t know? *SMIRK*
‘Husband?’ Whatever. *Rolleyes*
Even though the creator of the show is a huge lib they always kept politics out of it. Only once did I see anything political and that was when Penny briefly wore a Hillary 2008 t-shirt for just a second.
Obviously this numb nuts has never had a cold.
Yes. I have.
Never watched it. I don’t do sit-coms.
No, they don’t. I lost my taste and smell with COVID and I had a mild case. Three and a half months later I still don’t have them back. Not complaining, just reporting.
This is NOTHING like losing your taste and smell to a cold. Believe me, I know.
It's pretty clear, then, that he doesn't haunt FR.
Are visits to the throne more pleasant now?
