Recently, Wahlberg and McCarthy shared their “silver lining” in being quarantined since the coronavirus outbreak, while sharing some positivity with their fans on The Jenny McCarthy Show on SiriusXM. “I will say, the silver lining in this coronavirus, has been the family time,” she explained. “It really has been sweet. I’ve really kind of enjoyed everybody in the house, especially when something scary is going on, to have your family near you.” She went on to recall the time she was a single mother and dealing with the “tsunami” and how nice it is to have someone to lean on during this time.
“I remember when the tsunami happened,” she said. “And I was a single mom at the time, and it felt just so scary, it felt so scary to me, like, I wanted to lean on someone or someone to hold me and be like, ‘Everything’s gonna be okay.’ Even though it happened so far away, you watch the images and [it] took your breath away and you’re just like ‘I need a partner.’ So while all of this is going on, I’m like ‘Thank God I can lean on Donnie.’”
