AJ Pritchard tests positive for coronavirus
A source told The Sun: “It could put the whole show in jeopardy. This is the last thing anyone wanted.
“It has been a shock to AJ as he’s been feeling fine and following the precautions.
AJ, 26, is awaiting clearance so he can rejoin the celebrity line-up for the first day of filming on Friday.
“The ITV production team have gone to incredible lengths all year to make sure everything is carried out safely and with as minimal risk to the cast and crew as possible.
“There is little room for error. If several stars are struck down, particularly one of the older ones, then it would throw the whole show into jeopardy and be very problematic.”
