    Hilary Duff has reunited with her children after quarantining following her “exposure” to coronavirus

    The 33-year-old actress - who is currently pregnant with her third child - took to Instagram over the weekend to reveal she had been “exposed” to Covid-19, meaning she was having to self-isolate away from her kids


    But now, Hilary - who has Luca, eight, with ex-husband Mike Comrie and Banks, 23 months, with current husband Matthew Koma - has confirmed she’s tested negative for the virus, so she can now be in contact with her brood again.

    She posted a picture on her Instagram Story of herself hugging her kids, and wrote: “Not totally in the clear but looking positive and by that I mean negative!”

    Hilary had been filming the seventh season of her hit TV series ‘Younger’ in New York most recently, but it’s not known where the star came into contact with the illness.

    Meanwhile, Hilary revealed she was expecting her third child in October, by posting a sweet video of her growing baby bump on Instagram.

    The former ‘Lizzie McGuire' star wrote: "We are growing!!! Mostly me ... (sic)”

    Hilary gave birth to her first child when she was 24 and she initially found the experience to be quite "isolating".

    However, she also admitted that she'd always dreamed of having children.

    The actress - who married Matthew in an intimate backyard ceremony in 2019 - previously shared: "I'd say it was a little isolating in the beginning because I didn't have any friends that had babies yet. But I had been working for such a long time that it felt like a natural step for me and I always knew I wanted to be a mom.

    "I always knew that was going to be my number one priority in life. So I felt ready on some fronts and a little scared on others, but I really only got scared once I was pregnant."
