Kate Garraway oozes confidence as she rocks up to work with rollers in her hair

Kate Garraway looked pretty in pink as she left Smooth Radio in a stunning velvet dress.

The Good Morning Britain presenter, 55, wore the ankle-length dress, which was in quite a contrast to her early morning look when she arrived hours before her show on Friday.

Before she strolled out of the studio, Kate was spotted with rollers in her hair, while carrying newspapers.

The much-loved TV star donned a casual ensemble as she made her way to work on Friday morning while dressed in a baggy grey jumper and a matching grey pleated skirt.

Just a couple of hours later, the Good Morning Britain star was spotted again - but this time, she was oozing glamour.

Kate stunned in the figure-hugging pink dress with featured an extravagant frill detail at the bottom.

She layered a stylish long black coat over the top and paired the look with a pair of stylish studded black boots.

The TV star's latest appearance comes after she became visibly emotional as she gave an update on her husband Derek Draper’s health during a recent episode of Good Morning Britain.

Kate, 55, opened up to Lorraine Kelly about the struggles she's faced in caring for Derek long-term, including that she feels like a burden to her co-presenters.

Tragically, Derek is still recovering after contracting Covid in March 2020, after which he ended up in intensive care and spent over a year in hospital.

The bubbly mother-of-two appeared sombre as she spoke about caring for her husband and admitted she really empathised with anyone else caring for someone they love.

In the emotional discussion, Kate revealed that she is worried her colleagues are “fed up to the back teeth” of her talking about her family’s health struggles, after Derek recently spent another worrying few days in hospital.

When Lorraine asked how Derek was doing, Kate frankly said: "Oh, I mean you know, it's a long onslaught. I can see he has better days, he has worse days. He is thankfully at home now. It's been a long battle to get him back home again.”

In the honest conversation, Kate also shared her fears about the impact that Derek’s health has on her friends and colleagues, as well as herself and their children.

"I can't help thinking, you Lorraine, all the people around me, the people at GMB, at Smooth Radio as well must be fed up to the back teeth of it,” she said.

"That is the problem, I think, if you are caring or if you have a long-term situation as Derek has. It doesn't go away quickly and the fight goes on."

Kate shared a lesson that she’s taken from the situation, is that no one talks about caring for someone you love long-term, and it’s a situation you can’t understanding until you live it.
