Pregnant Addite Malik Says 10 Days That Husband Had COVID-19 Were A Nightmare

Addite Malik pregnant: Mom-to-be Addite Malik and husband Mohit Malik are all set to embrace parenthood soon.

The couple will be welcoming their first baby in May this year. However, during the pregnancy, Mohit contracted COVID-19 and Addite recently spoke about how she had to go through the toughest period of her life.

At the beginning of the year, Addite explained how they both had spent their time in Alibaug and it was on that trip that Mohit caught the deadly COVID-19. Opening up on how she dealt with the situation, she told News18, “We’ve always been particular of sanitisation with the Covid threat around. When Mohit was constantly shooting for his shows, we were extremely careful. He used to take steam regularly and we did whatever was required to stay fit."

However, she said that they never really understood how he got the virus. "The friends we travelled with were working from home. We had booked a private villa and there were no outsiders. It’s strange that despite all the precautions it happened," she expressed.

Addite explained she had immediately isolated herself. "Those ten days were a complete nightmare because I was constantly getting worked up whether I am showing symptoms of Covid. But we dealt with it together." She further noted how they were constantly video calling each other to make sure that they remained calm during the crucial time.

She claimed, "This episode was during my seventh month, which is a crucial period. I’d say we sailed through somehow. Meditation, yoga and listening to music helped me but Covid really plays with your head."

Now, on the cusp of motherhood, Addite worries about her kid's future amid the pandemic. She said the fear of pandemic has yet not gone "but this time has prepared us for the worst". She added, "At times, I panic about how things are going to be for my child. I have to be careful and keep the baby safe and I am just going with the flow."

In her recent post on Instagram, Addite got candid about her "overwhelming journey" through the pregnancy. She also shared maternity pictures and shared how she is feeling through this "enriching journey" in a short note in the caption.

Addite and Mohit announced the pregnancy in December last year.
