Kate Garraway’s husband Derek Draper is said to be back in hospital once again to undergo an operation on his kidneys.
The 55-year-old former political adviser contracted Covid back in March 2020, with the damage from the virus so severe that he was placed in a medically induced coma for several months. Derek was finally able to return home in April 2021 after more than a year in hospital, but still requires daily care and has been in and out of hospital since.
Good Morning Britain star Kate is said to have stayed by her husband’s bedside as he recovered from an operation to repair damage to his kidneys caused by Covid, The Mirror reports . Doctors reportedly reassured Kate that the procedure was a routine one and that there was “no alternative but to operate”, but Derek’s latest hospital visit is nonetheless said to have been a worrying ordeal for the family.
