'Tired' Kate Garraway says husband has been in hospital for months as she shares emotional family night

Kate Garraway has shared that her husband has spent two months in hospital after confirming that he was back in after his more than year-long stay from 2020 to 2021. The Good Morning Britain host has been open about Derek Draper's recovery after their lives were changed by Covid.

She gave an update on Derek, a former Labour lobbyist turned psychotherapist, earlier this week during an appearance at the Tric Awards with her GMB co-stars and many other ITV colleagues. Her appearance on the blue carpet came after she made a desperate plea to her Twitter followers last weekend.

She revealed that she had lost her husband Derek Draper's vital medical supplies. She had brought Derek, 54, home from hospital for a short stay in a black cab. But after they arrived home she discovered she had left his essential medication in the taxi. After putting a call out on social media, Kate confirmed the following day that they had, luckily, been returned.
