Christine Quinn, like so many other celebrities before her, was dealing with COVID and therefore had to miss the Netflix special.
“Christine tested positive for COVID on Saturday and out of an abundance of caution, she did not attend the reunion,” the “Selling Sunset” star’s rep told TMZ. Meanwhile, the outlet reports that another cast member missed the taping due to the contagious illness, but did manage to participate in the discussion.
Amanza Smith, like Quinn, not able to attend the reunion taping while quarantining, but appeared virtually. Meanwhile, the star shared on her Instagram Story that she has been keeping busy reading magazines and laying out on her kids’ trampoline.
As for why Quinn did not choose to Zoom in for the reunion, her rep told TMZ the mom of one was too ill. “She is still feeling under the weather and is taking all necessary precautions to keep her family safe,” her rep also said, according to People.
