Susanna Reid sent a heartfelt Twitter message to Kate Garraway amid husband Derek Draper‘s ongoing health battle.
The host of Good Morning Britain took time off her holiday to send her fellow ITV star a message of support.
Kate Garraway issues health update on Derek
Over the past couple of weeks, Kate has been absent from hosting GMB to be at Derek’s bedside.
Derek was rushed to hospital in a “very serious condition” at the beginning of the month.
Today (Monday, August 1), Kate made her return to hosting the show – and provided an update on Derek’s health.
The 54-year-old revealed that Derek went into hospital with a kidney infection – which has now led to serious complications.
Kate went on to explain that Derek had developed sepsis and is now at risk of losing his kidney.
“The challenge now is to save them [the kidneys]. So that’s where we’ve been for the last three weeks,” she said.
What a relief that things are better. So good to have you back @gmb. Huge love to you all Kate ♥️ https://t.co/lfcFqlS6V3
