Stephanopoulos' wife, Ali Wentworth, had come down with COVID-19 and tweeted that she's "never been sicker." Her husband has been taking care of her, their children and doing his TV job in the interim.

Stephanopoulos said the only potential symptoms he has felt were a lower back ache he’d attributed to a hard workout, and a briefly diminished sense of smell.
