Kate Garraway has revealed her husband Derek Draper has had a spate of hospital visits in recent weeks, leaving her feeling ‘exhausted’. The Good Morning Britain presenter has become primary carer for the former political lobbyist, who fell into a coma after being diagnosed with Covid in March 2020.
Derek, 56, was released from hospital last year but his progress has been gradual. On Sunday, Kate, 56, shared an insight into his health battle and revealed the impact it’s had on her. ‘So Derek has been in and out of hospital a lot recently -hopefully the wonderful health teams will help him improve but I woke up early feeling exhausted & very fretful,’ she wrote alongside an Instagram video of her tending to flowers in her garden.
Kate continued: ‘As you know my garden is my #happyplace so came out for some #calm and to get stuck in to some weeding & planting.
It’s been ages since have been able to & I really missed it but nature hasn’t me. ‘The flowers are blooming, fruits growing , leaves dancing in the breeze.
