The Good Morning Britain star announced on January 5 that her husband and father of her two children had sadly passed away
Kate Garraway has been flooded with supportive messages after she opened up about experiencing a 'first' since the death of her husband. The Good Morning Britain star announced on January 5 that her husband and father of her two children - Darcey and Billy - had sadly passed away, almost four years after the former Labour lobbyist-turned-psychotherapist became ill with Covid.
Kate has since returned to work after laying her husband to rest in an emotional service, attended by the likes of Sir Elton John and her ITV colleagues, held at the church in which they married. Recalling the moment Derek first fell ill in 2020, Kate said: "My life took a turn that meant suddenly I was a story that people wanted to talk about and particularly I wanted to tell Derek's story of what he went through and that touched a chord with lots of people. That's amazing and now I feel a huge responsibility to them."
Giving a shout-out to her friend and former co-star, This Morning host Ben, Kate added: "Special mention, obviously, goes to Ben Shephard for that and for being the most extraordinary person to be by your side for 24 years."
