Coronavirus: Idris Elba says he’s ‘stuck in limbo’ after passing quarantine period

Elba was one of first famous figures to test positive for illness

Idris Elba has shared yet another update on his condition after testing positive for coronavirus.

Weeks after seemingly catching the illness from Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, the wife of Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, the Luther actor told his fans he is “stuck in limbo” as he’s unable to fly home despite being “past the quarantine period”.

Elba has been in self-isolation with his wife Sabrina Dhowre, which he said was “weird” as they’re not used to “sitting still”.

He said on Twitter: “But we are both good mentally, trying to stay optimistic.”

Elba expressed his gratefulness for overcoming the illness.
