The Good Morning Britain presenter posted an update on social media
"I have so many thanks to give but I must make sure I thank @lisaredmanltd for the loan of my 'fit for a king dress' and @missbsmillinery for its matching hat.!! Love to you all and happy Sunday."
Derek is still suffering with his health after contracting COVID-19 in March 2020. He initially spent 13 months in hospital and requires round-the-clock care.Following the ceremony at Buckingham Palace on Wednesday, Kate appeared on Good Morning Britain when she shared more details about her very special royal visit. Speaking to her colleague and good friend Ben Shephard, she said: "Derek burst into tears.
"So we turned around, and then obviously saw Derek who was very tearful and then spoke about Jake [Derek's carer] and gave Jake a wave as well."Kate then shared that Prince William was keen to go over and greet Derek, but protocol prevented this. "He [Prince William] said he wanted to go over but he's not allowed to leave the rug, there's a very fancy red and gold carpet that he stands on.
"The whole event is very special, the Prince of Wales handles it beautifully. You're in with incredible people, who you hear the stories of. It's also lovely for my mum and dad, and for Derek to be here with the children. I didn't think it would be but you do feel very emotional - in a good way."After sharing the update on Instagram, Kate's comment section was flooded with well wishes from her followers.
Another said: "Congratulations Kate, the whole nation loved this moment-a happy time. Sending love and strength to you all," as a third added: "So well deserved and so lovely that Derek and your mum and dad were with you as well as Derek's carer, being a carer I know how special that must have been for him."
