Alec and daughter Ireland hit up Instagram Live for a game of charades while self-quarantined in their respective homes. Alec’s wife Hilaria also jumped in, trying to help explain his clues as he mimed explicit gestures with a spoon. The answer: Deep Throat.

By tomorrow, with more donations, we will be closer to a million. We are helping the nation’s health care workers. This is the largest crisis of our lifetime. #bstrong.”

JAIME KING

Jaime King shared a video with a woman saying, “Thank you for shaking us and showing us we are dependent on something much bigger than we think. Thank you for making us appreciate the luxury we lived in, the abundance of product, freedom, health, and realizing we were taking it for granted.”

“Thank you for stopping us, to make us see how lost we were in the busyness, not having time for the most basic things,” the video continues. “Thank you for allowing us to put aside all our problems we thought were so important and showing us what is actually important.”

It went on to continue thanking the virus for “stopping transport” to “all the fear,” and for “reevaluating our lives.”

Fans weren’t impressed. Several threatened to unfollow her over the “vile” post.

“For one week I felt pretty bad and was mostly in bed, sleeping, with high fever and strong headache,” the actress wrote. “The second week, the fever was gone but some light cough appeared and I felt very tired. By the end of the second week I felt totally fine.”
