Kate Garraway has given an update on her family life as well as her husband Derek Draper's progress as he continues to battle the devastating effects contracting coronavirus had on his body. Many fans are aware that Derek Draper suffered severe complications after contracting coronavirus in March 2020.
The former political advisor was struck down with the virus and quickly became critically ill. He is believed to be the worst-affected living Covid patient in the UK after spending 13 months in hospital between March 2020 and April 2021. Despite fighting back and returning home after more than a year in the hospital, Derek is still facing serious and devasting consequences today.
But last month, Kate shared a smiling photo of her husband at their London home - a rare occurrence as she normally keeps photos of her husband private - as she heaped praise on one of his carers. She took to Instagram with the snap which sees Derek sitting up in bed with a smile on his face and holding hands with his healthcare professional, Jake.
