Model Montana Cox reveals she contracted Covid TWICE while living in London last year

Montana Cox has revealed she contracted coronavirus twice while living in London last year.

The 27-year-old model told the Herald Sun on Wednesday, she tested positive after travelling from New York to the UK for a job.

‘I had it early on and then got it again in October,’ she said.

‘The first time I didn’t really know I had it, it felt like the flu, but the second I was in bed for a few weeks.’

The Australian model returned back home to Melbourne in December last year.

She completed two weeks of mandatory quarantine before reuniting with her family for Christmas.

Montana said she’s very grateful to be back in Australia because ‘there’s nothing like coming home’.

It comes after Montana denied claims she’s dating Melbourne businessman Lewis Romano.

The 26-year-old told Daily Mail Australia last month that she was baffled by the story, which appeared in The Sun-Herald’s Emerald City column.

‘I have met Lewis once not sure where they come up with this,’ Montana said, adding that she already has a boyfriend who is based in LA.

Lewis also poured cold water on the rumours.

‘I have met Montana once and we are certainly not dating or even know each other,’ he told Daily Mail Australia.

Citing unnamed ‘friends’, Emerald City had claimed that Montana and Lewis were ‘totally smitten’ with each other.

Montana rose to fame on Australia’s Next Top Model in 2011, while Lewis is the co-founder of financial technology company Credit Clear.
