Kate Garraway's ITV co-stars have shown their support for the presenter after she 'pulled out' of hosting duties on Good Morning Britain. The 55-year-old usually hosts the news show every Thursday and Friday alongside Ben Shephard but on Thursday (July 21) she was replaced by Charlotte Hawkins.
It comes after reports Kate's husband Derek Draper had been taken back to hospital meaning his wife is keen to be by his side. An ITV spokesperson has told Metro.co.uk that Kate would be off for at least a few days but did not confirm the reason for her absence. They added that she'll be back "as soon as possible."
Meanwhile, Kate's GMB co-stars were quick to address Kate's absence and send their own messages. Ben said: "We are missing a member of the team, aren’t we?" to which Charlotte replied: "We are yes." She then continued: "So Kate’s not here. She’s taking some time out to be with Derek at the moment so we’re sending her lots of love.
