Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway is facing her first summer without her late husband Derek Draper and has revealed how she plans to make it 'lovely' for their children
Kate Garraway has impressed her loyal fans with her incredible strength since losing her husband of 20 years, Derek Draper, in January. After returning to her Good Morning Britain hosting chair just a few weeks after his death, the telly star has been open and honest about adjusting to life as the only living parent of her and Derek's two children - Darcey, who turned 18 last month, and Billy, 14.
"We will get a family holiday. But it's going to be a bit challenging because it's a different kind of family set up that we have now, but we will do something lovely," she told MailOnline at the Variety Club Showbusiness Awards on Sunday night. In December last year he was readmitted to hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest, despite appearing in generally good health beforehand, and sadly died on 3 January. At his funeral, teenager Darcey bravely carried his coffin in to and out of the packed service.
