Orlando Pride star Sydney Leroux said her children’s experience with COVID-19 was harder than she and her family ever expected.
The star striker shared on social media Monday night that her children — four-year-old Cassius and one-year-old Roux — have been fighting COVID-19 for several weeks.
“For the longest time we’ve heard that children aren’t badly affected by COVID and, maybe, for the most part that is the case,” Leroux wrote in an Instagram post. “For us - it wasn’t.”
Leroux said she woke up several weeks ago to the sound of Cassius screaming from his room.
