ITV GMB fans worried for Kate Garraway missing from show amid Derek's health battle

GMB viewers were concerned when Kate Garraway was absent from the show on Friday morning.

The presenter has been caring for husband Derek Draper throughout his two-year covid battle and regularly updates fans on his progress.

Derek, 55, was recently rushed back to hospital as his health took a turn for the worse, prompting fans to speculate at Kate's absence on Good Morning Britain in the latest episode.

Today, Ben Shephard was fronting the show with Charlotte Hawkins.

Viewers took to Twitter immediately to express worries about Kate. One said: "Gosh, hope her husband is okay."

One added: "Where is Kate this morning ? Really hope she's OK...". And one added: "Friday's aren't the same without Kate on GMB,"

Former political lobbyist was admitted to the hospital with Covid-19 in March 2020, and a year later he returned home where he has been receiving care ever since.

Garraway shares regular developments on her husband's condition, and how life has changed for their family as Derek fights to improve his health.

Earlier this year, Kate revealed Derek had been 'in and out' of medical care for a number of weeks due to a severe case of sepsis.

"Derek is back in hospital after developing sepsis that again threatened his life and we are again fighting to get him home," she said at the time.
