Kate Garraway returned to Good Morning Britain after a lengthy absence today, on August 1.
Updating viewers and co-host Richard Madeley on Derek Draper's condition, she revealed her husband came down with "severe life threatening sepsis" after developing a bad kidney infection. The TV presenter shared that she was on air when she found out that he had taken a bad turn.
The 55-year-old was last seen on the ITV morning show on July 9, which was when she received a phone call from one of Derek's carers to say that they were really worried about him. He has been left battling long term health conditions after testing positive for coronavirus back in 2020.
