GOOD Morning Britain viewers were up in arms today as actor Dominic West admitted he "jumped for joy" after hearing Donald Trump's coronavirus diagnosis.
The Affair star, 50, didn't mince his words when host Kate Garraway asked for his views on the American President's shock positive result.Speaking from his home in Wiltshire, Dominic said: "Well I did slightly leap in the air with joy. "He said 'it is what it is', and I think the phrase is 'what goes around comes around'. I just hope it doesn't interfere with him being elected out of office that's all."
Kate gave him a chance to clarify his words, suggesting he wished Trump well on a personal level but perhaps felt there was an element of karma after the President downplayed the virus earlier in the year. But Dominic stood doubled down and continued: "Well there's an element of schadenfreude I suppose. I'm not a fan of his, as you can probably tell, and I just hope Biden stays healthy and gets the presidency as quickly as possible.Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump both have Covid-19He added that he hoped the diagnosis would make Trump supporters take the virus more seriously.
