Tom Bergeron has previously posted health updates on social media.
Bergeron has kept his followers up to date on a variety of events in his life, including his health-related issues. In fact, he uploaded a picture of his test and informed his followers that he had become ill when he tested positive for the coronavirus.
“Well, after avoiding it for more than two years, it has now caught up with me.” In July 2022, he posted a snapshot of his positive test, “And I thought I was immune.”
He sent another update a couple of days later.
“Day 5 of Covid. This morning, my Paxlovid prescription was finished. Excellent performance but intriguing metallic aftertaste.”
Beginning in 2005 and running for its first 28 seasons, Bergeron served as “Dancing With the Stars”‘ host.
“Just let @DancingABC know that they can continue without me. It’s been a remarkable 15-year run and my career’s biggest surprise. I’m appreciative of that and the friendships I’ve established for life. After considering that, what should I do with all of these glitter masks?” In July 2020, Bergeron tweeted.
Tyra Banks took Bergeron’s position once her Twitter account was terminated. Banks left the program in 2023, and Julianne Hough was chosen to host season 32. In the fall of 2023, Alfonso Ribeiro will co-host the first episode of the new season.
