Swedish Eurovision favourite Eric Saade admits that he is "feeling pretty okay" after testing positive for coronavirus.

Eric Saade has revealed that he has tested positive for coronavirus.

The 29-year-old, who represented Sweden at Eurovision in 2011, revealed the news in a TikTok clip as he danced along to Drake's 'Toosie Slide'.

"Home 'cause I have corona," he said. "Feeling pretty okay though! So why not dance a lil' bit?!"

Saade placed third with 'Popular' in the 2011 contest, losing out to Azerbaijan, and has since forged out a career as a solo artist and TV presenter.

In 2019 Saade hosted the popular Swedish selection show Melodifestivalen and last week released a new single, 'Glas'.
