Trisha made a guest appearance on Tea Leoni's TV show, The Naked Truth, in 1998, and after the fan shared it with her, Trisha added: "OMG, I've been looking for this clip for years!

Trisha took to social media to reply to fans
It was her first tweet since the devastating news in February that she had caught COVID-19.
Her husband, Garth Brooks, shared the news with fans at the time, writing: "The Queen and I have now tested twice. Officially, she’s diagnosed as ‘on her way out of the tunnel’ now, though, which I’m extremely thankful for."
Garth’s test had come back negative.

"Anyone who knows me knows my world begins and ends with Miss Yearwood, so she and I will ride through this together. And anyone who knows her knows she's a fighter and she's been doing everything right, so I know we’ll walk out the other side of this thing together," he added.
Although he never revealed what symptoms she was battling, he later admitted he was terrified that she would lose her singing voice.

"Living with her, I sometimes take it for granted she's one of the greatest voices in all of music, so the possible long-term effects on her concern me as her husband and as a fan," he shared.
"We’re very lucky she is currently under the greatest care in the best city for treating and healing singers."
