Kate Garraway has broken her silence on being nominated for a National Television Award.
Posting to Twitter, she shared a video explaining why she had remained silent for so long after being nominated for an award for her work on the documentary Caring For Derek. It showcased her family's journey as her husband, Derek Draper, faced recovery after contracting coronavirus, and she was forced to become his carer.
He was diagnosed with the pandemic virus back in 2020 and has never fully recovered. The former lobbyist has been in and out of hospital as he now suffers with his mobility, speech and energy levels requiring 24-hour care.
