She told New magazine: "Harvey is one of those who are at a high risk of dying if they get it, so I haven't been able to see my other kids."
Last month, Junior revealed he is showing signs of coronavirus - just hours after dad Pete told how he feared his kids could catch it from NHS doctor wife Emily.
He told followers: "These aren’t easy times as we know. I am videoing this to tell you I am showing symptoms of the coronavirus. It is not me saying I have it , I am showing symptoms."
