Kate Garraway is said to be 'heartbroken' as she keeps watch over her husband Derek Draper in hospital. The former lobbyist, 56, is currently 'fighting for his life' after suffering a 'huge heart attack' earlier this month.
The entire nation is deeply concerned as Derek is Britain's longest-suffering coronavirus victim, having spent 13 months in hospital after contracting Covid-19. The virus has caused various health issues, including liver damage and kidney failure.
The couple, who have been married since 2005, have two children - Darcey, 17, and Billy, 14. The family are 'trying to stay strong for one another' despite the heartbreaking circumstances.
Kate had to take indefinite leave from her role as a presenter on Good Morning Britain, with her colleagues sending heartfelt messages of support in her absence.
Her co-anchor Richard Madeley said on the show, "It is a very difficult time". The family are trying to 'manage' the children's 'expectations of a family Christmas', given Derek's condition in hospital.
Kate has made two documentaries about Derek's health ordeals and what it's been like for the family to care for him. This is an incredibly challenging time for the Garraway-Draper family, and it's important to keep sending them our best wishes during this difficult period.
