The actress, 45, revealed that since her diagnosis, she has been experiencing symptoms, including weight on her chest and difficulty breathing.
“One of my kids I think has it so far and I’m praying that the other ones are okay,” Hart added. Hart and her husband Mark Wilkerson are parents to three sons, Tucker, Braydon and Mason, The Hollywood Reporter says.
The actress said her youngest son wore his mask to school regularly, as he was used to it from mask requirements during the previous school year. She praised her little one, saying “If he does get it, I can at least tell him he was a superhero to those in his classroom because he protected his teacher and his classmates from it.”
Hart went on to express her frustration with the situation, saying that she is “sad” and “scared.”
“I’m mad, really mad,” Hart continued saying in the video. “We took precautions and we cut our exposure by a lot, but we got a little lazy. And I think as a country we got lazy. I’m really mad that my kids didn’t have to wear masks at school. I’m pretty sure that’s where this came from.”
The star pleaded with fans to take necessary precautions to protect themselves and their families.
“I just wish I’d done better, so I’m asking you to do better,” she concluded. “Protect your families. Protect your kids. It’s not over yet.”
