2020 came as the hardest time for the Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway, whose husband got admitted in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) due to Coronavirus (COVID-19). Her husband's health crisis has tolled upon her mental health as well as crashed her professionally. However, she returned to work on the ITV breakfast show, as she copes in one of the challenging periods of her life.
One of her co-workers, Alex Beresford, wrote that Garraway's return to work is 'uplifting' and 'inspiring.' He referred to her brave acts as 'given her the lift she needs to keep herself, her husband Derek and the kids going.' He further wrote;
"I can’t begin to imagine what it’s been like for her, with Derek battling Covid-19 in intensive care since March."
Kate Garraway's husband, Derek Draper, is on the ICU ward for months since March 2020 due to coronavirus. And her last visit to her partner was 'difficult', but she handled herself in public, and like a true professional, her strength has shone.
