Josh Brolin Apologizes For Visiting Parents James Brolin And Barbra Streisand During Coronavirus Lockdown

Actor Josh Brolin has apologized for visiting his father, James Brolin, and stepmother, Barbra Streisand, during the COVID-19 lockdown in California. The Avengers: Endgame star received fan backlash after he and his wife, Kathryn Boyd, visited Josk’s parents last week, with their daughter.

The actor shared a three-minute video on Instagram where he addressed the criticism. He captioned the post, “Thanks for the reset. #respectsocialdistancing.”

“My father lives next door to us and we had a plan to go see them and not be near them and that plan was broken and that is our responsibility,” Josh Brolin said.”We were going to pick something up and show Bean the pool because we don’t have a pool, and I think it was irresponsible.

He continued, “It’s hard to be honest sometimes. It’s hard to be honest and say, ‘Maybe I screwed up. I knew that was in the air, not because of the responses, but the responses brought me back to my own truth. It’s humbling as hell, because I know there are some people out there [with] no masks, no gloves, no interest in it, they think it’s in your head, that you’ll survive because of immunity that is created because of your own psychic weight. But, I know for me that’s not the case, and we’ve been very responsible, and I apologize about that.”

Brolin stated that he’s “not an advocate of doing anything outside of taking care of each other and making sure that we get through this even if we go overboard, even if we go overboard and are too protective. At least we’re doing it for a reason because we’ll look back on this as being a very short time for a very long term solution and a long life,” he said.

The number of COVID-19 positive cases in the United States has reached 700,000 with over 40,000 deaths, according to data obtained by Johns Hopkins University.
