As COVID-19 spreads across the United States, state officials have begun to establish curfews, shut down public spaces, and institute a host of other restrictions. Ava, a former Dr. Phil guest, is making headlines again. The 21-year-old college student who defied all the rules went viral on TikTok for licking a toilet seat on an airplane, as she headed to spring break festivities. Ava says the coronavirus is fake news made up by social media. Then, law enforcement visited Pastor Tony Spell because, in continuing to minister to his congregation, he violated an emergency order banning groups of more than 50 people. While Pastor Tony admittedly had over 1,100 people at Sunday Service, he says not allowing large groups to worship but letting people shop is a persecution of the faith.

As coronavirus continues to dominate the global conversation, Dr. Phil explores the impact this pandemic is having on relationships, especially since several news outlets published data on a spike in divorce filings in China, where self-quarantining has been in effect for longer than in America. Dr. Phil meets Pepper and Pearson, a couple married 42 years who run a marriage ministry and fear, despite their relationship wisdom, self-quarantining could lead them to the brink of divorce. Watch while Dr. Phil and his wife, Robin, give practical advice on how to deal with relationships during this unprecedented time.
