Steve Martin took to Instagram on February 20 to post a photo of Martin Short and Maya Rudolph kissing and mentioned that both caught COVID during Saturday Night Live's 50 Anniversary Special.

Steve Martin and Martin Short have postponed upcoming concerts after Short was diagnosed with COVID, Martin said on Instagram. Martin and Short both attended the 'SNL' 50th anniversary show on Sunday.
