During the podcast episode, Bell went on to share that Delta is not bothered by the fact that she now shares a name with the Covid variant. "She's six so she's impressed every time she sees a Delta Airlines ad or anything. She's like 'Oh my gosh, my name!'" The mom of two added, "So every time she hears anyone talk about the variant, she's like 'my name!' So she's still excited about it" (via People).
Bell went on to note about the coincidence, "Maybe it's a good thing, because her life's really easy, because she's privileged and she's got a little charisma." The 41-year-old joked, "So maybe she does need this to follow her around forever."
Indeed, Bell previously said Delta has a "sassy" little demeanor (via Closer Weekly). Hopefully that will help her navigate the strange new reality that her name is now associated with the pandemic.
