Good Morning Britain's Kate Garraway has opened up about her 'tough' Father's Day, the first since losing her husband Derek Draper, as she and her two children visited his grave
Kate Garraway has posted a heart-wrenching message on Father's Day following the loss of her husband, Derek Draper. The 57 year old Good Morning Britain presenter lost Derek, the father of their children Darcey and Billy, in January after a long battle with Covid.
The presenter continued: "We're also so grateful to still have my amazing dad in our lives and Derek's dad too . Brilliant Papa and Grandad . Then thanks to my fab @global family we went to the #capitalsummertimeball - an amazing day of music and summer joy. It was sad coming home and not finding Derek waiting to hear "all about it" as he used to say.
Her ITV co-star, Lorraine Kelly, responded with: "Beautiful words and what a gorgeous photo." Meanwhile, Kate's GMB colleague, Charlotte Hawkins, sent: "Lots of love to you," along with a red heart emoji. Another fan commented: "Well done Kate. Your strength amazes me."
