Kate Garraway has not only been a dedicated co-star on Good Morning Britain, but also a compassionate and supportive friend. Recently, she has been offering her support to a fellow ITV colleague, Richard Arnold, who has been caring for his mother after she received a life-changing health diagnosis last year. As his mother's condition has progressed and she is no longer independent, Richard has turned to Kate for guidance and advice.
This isn't the first time Kate has been a caregiver, as she spent years caring for her husband Derek Draper before his tragic passing on January 3. Knowing firsthand the challenges and responsibilities of being a caregiver, Kate has been a valuable source of comfort and wisdom for Richard. He often seeks her advice on how to navigate the complexities of caring for his 81-year-old mother, Dot, while juggling his demanding job as the entertainment reporter on GMB.
In a recent interview, Richard opened up about his conversations with Kate, describing how she understands the feelings of guilt and pressure that come with being an unpaid caregiver. He also commended her for bringing attention to the often overlooked community of caregivers, whom she refers to as "extraordinary." With her own experience and empathy, Kate has been an invaluable support to Richard during this challenging time.
As Kate prepares to return to hosting GMB for the first time since Derek's passing, the entire team is eagerly awaiting her return. She briefly appeared on the show earlier this week, and her colleagues Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid were touched by her strength and resilience. During the interview, Kate expressed her gratitude for the outpouring of love and support she has received from viewers, and shared how her children, Billy and Darcey, have been coping with their father's death.
In addition to returning to GMB, Kate is also looking forward to getting back to her popular radio show on Smooth FM. According to sources, she is eager to keep busy and immerse herself in her work, as it is something she loves and has been a part of her life for a long time. Her colleagues at GMB are also excited to have her back in the family, and have been a constant source of support for her during this difficult time.
Derek's funeral was held at a church in London, where he and Kate had also tied the knot in 2005. The service was attended by many of their co-stars, famous friends, and politicians, including Sir Elton John. Although Kate has kept a low profile in recent weeks, she has been surrounded by loved ones and supported by her GMB family.
