The Good Morning Britain presenter, 55, has shared the ups and downs of her husband’s illness, with him thought to be the worst-effected person to have contracted the virus and survived.
Derek, also 55, was first hospitalised with Covid in March 2020 and spent over a year in hospital before being discharged in April last year.He is now back in hospital, but Kate assures that he is ‘ok.’about Derek: ‘He’s ok, he’s back in hospital actually, so that’s a development. There we are.’ Kate and the two children she shares with Derek – Darcey, 16, and Billy, 12 – have been adapting to a new way of life amid Derek’s Covid struggles, documenting his journey in two ITV documentaries – Finding Derek and the follow-up, Caring For Derek.
Most recently, they shared that they’ve had to ‘relearn’ their relationship with him since ‘so much has changed.’: ‘When you nearly lose someone, it certainly brings everything into sharp focus,’ she said. ‘In many ways, we’re still learning how we are as man and wife, as so much has changed. ‘It’s the same for the children – they’re having to relearn the experience of being with their dad. And, of course, the biggest learning is for poor Derek.’
