Radio host Howard Stern recently admitted that his paranoia over a new strain of COVID-19 has gotten him into a fight with his wife.
During a Wednesday segment of his Sirius XM radio show, the shock jock conceded that he’s paranoid and "neurotic," especially when it comes to the virus, and noted that his wife is less so.
As he explained, this has led to tension and arguments with her as media outlets have been warning about a new coronavirus strain and his wife wants to go out and socialize.
The topic came up when a guest caller asked the radio host whether he thought it was risky to return to the studio for his show amid the new warnings about another COVID-19 outbreak.
Stern admitted the fear of getting sick has been weighing on him and his relationship.
He said, "I’m going crazy with this. My wife yelled at me last night. We got into a fight."
He added, "You know how paranoid I am about getting COVID. I haven’t gotten it, and I’m pretty safe, and I really don’t want to get it."
Howard Stern says he getting really scared about the new wave of Covid, and is about to cancel plans with his wife.

The radio host vented about people telling him to lighten up about the disease, stating he will be the one to have a strong case of it because he’s older and "lucky" like that. Stern said, "Everyone goes, ‘Don’t worry, it’s just a cold for me.’ It’ll probably be way worse. You know what I mean? I mean, I’m the lucky one who will completely fall apart."
Mentioning how his wife has less to worry about than him, he added, "You know, my wife’s considerably younger than me, as you might have heard. And you know, she’s not as concerned about getting COVID as I am, because, you know, I’m an older dude."
