Latresa Rice believes that her husband, Albert, contracted the coronavirus and died after getting a haircut. She told Hall during an appearance on her show Wednesday that although she’d traveled two weeks ago, she returned without symptoms and that no one she was in contact with contracted the virus.
Rice told Hall that after going out to get a haircut, her husband fell ill and days later, he was dead.
