Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is in isolation after her fiancé Clarke Gayford tested positive for Covid-19 on Sunday.
Ardern told Breakfast via Zoom from home on Monday, "we're just having the same experience that a large part of the country's had over the past couple of months."
The Prime Minister was in good spirits as she told host Jenny-May Clarkson that she didn't have Covid-19.
"We’re fine thanks, it’s just the one patient in the household at the moment," she said.
"I just did a radio interview where Neve (her daughter) through the duration of it chased me round the room with a banana, so anything could happen."
Ardern confirmed Gayford's positive result in a post on Instagram on Sunday.
"Happy Mother’s Day everyone! It’s not even midday and already I’d say ours has been a mixed bag," she wrote.

"Clarke woke up feeling a bit average and has tested positive for COVID, so we have 7 days of family time ahead of us! I’m fine and so is Neve [the couple's daughter]".
Ardern says she'll be working from home for a bit.
