Kate Garraway says husband Derek still cannot move in heartbreaking update

A Good Morning Britain presenter has shared an update on her husband after he fell into a coma for months after catching the coronavirus in 2020. Broadcaster Kate Garraway has explained her husband, Derek Draper, is home with his family but recquires round-the-clock care.

The former political advisor spent 13 months in hospital, and became the longest-suffering coronavirus patient in the UK. Three years after her Derek first faced life-changing challenges, Kate has revealed that her husband is 'very damaged' but is still making progress every day at home with their children, Darcey, 16 and Billy, 13.

The couple have been married for 13 years, and Kate has remained at his side every step of the way. Speaking to Giovanna Fletcher on her podcast, Journey To Magic, Kate shared some insight into her family life, reports The Daily Mirror.
