Shannon Beador and her children have tested positive for the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).

The Real Housewives of Orange County star, 56, opened up about the multiple diagnoses in an Instagram post on Friday, sharing a "pre-pandemic" family portrait of herself and her three daughters: 18-year-old Sophie and 14-year-old twins Stella and Adeline.

"Today, we are Covid positive times 4," the mom, who shares her daughters with ex-husband David Beador, captioned the shot. "The girls and I are blessed to be quarantining in the same home (but isolating in separate rooms)."

Beador went on to show her appreciation for health care workers, writing, "A huge thank you to all of the medical personnel that have been patiently guiding us through this illness. Sending prayers to all of those affected."

Beador spoke about the importance of taking precaution against the novel coronavirus in May after reuniting with some of her RHOC costars for a "social distance catch-up."

"As a person with lung damage, my family and I take the Coronavirus and social distancing very seriously. Apparently there is a bit of negative press out there today about how the #RHOC cast assembled yesterday," she wrote on her Instagram at the time, sharing a photo of herself with her daughters in coordinating face masks.

"Once again, as a person with permanent lung damage in both lungs, I did everything to follow guidelines given to us," Beador said in the post. "I intend to be around a long time with my girls..."

As of Friday, there have been at least 4,112,900 confirmed COVID-19 cases in the United States, with more than 145,100 deaths from coronavirus-related illnesses, according to a New York Times database.
