Linda Lusardi’s husband thinks she’s "beaten" coronavirus.
The 61-year-old actress – who tested positive for the respiratory disease last week – has been battling the illness in hospital, but now her partner Sam Kane, 51, has suggested her condition has taken a positive turn.
He wrote on Facebook: "My beautiful girl has dropped her oxygen intake today, which is amazing news.
"She’s still got a long way to go but these baby steps are on a roll now.
"I truly believe she’s beaten the virus now and her body is concentrating on healing itself after the battle. She’s a fighter and she will win this."
Sam – who thanked everyone for their "messages and prayers" as they offered their support – also heaped praise on the NHS and described the workers as "angels".
He continued: "The most enormous Thank You to all of the NHS staff who continue to get my girl back to health. You’re all angels.
"To all of our close and dear friends who have sent so much love and support and helped over and above.
"I love you all. Thank you. I’ll keep you posted."
The update comes after Sam revealed his wife was slowly on the mend.
He said: "I have the angels with me helping to heal my girl. Along with all of your amazing love and prayers she appears, so very slowly to be at least a little brighter in her self.
"The oxygen is still a problem as is her blood pressure is low but she isn’t moving backwards. Thank God.
"There is still no major change to report just yet but she did say she’s feeling a tiny bit stronger. As long as its moving forward. That’s all that matters to me."
