Kate Garraway is comforted by a D-Day veteran over the death of her husband Derek Draper as she leads coverage of 80th anniversary in Normandy
Kate Garraway shared a moving moment with a D-Day veteran as she presented coverage of the 80th anniversary of the Normandy landings from northern France on Thursday.
After their interview had wrapped Kate revealed that John had shared his condolences for the death of her husband Derek Draper, who died in January after battling the long turn damage caused by Covid for four years. Charles, along with President Macron, Mr Sunak and military leaders laid wreathes of poppies at the memorial as Elgar's Nimrod was performed by a brass band in the background, with the national anthems of France and the United Kingdom also being played as the Red Arrows roared overhead. The monarch looked emotional as he listened to singer Johnny Flynn perform 'Song with no Name' in tribute to the fallen, while Camilla was seen wiping her eyes as actor Martin Freeman read a touching diary entry from one survivor who remarked 'it's because of the lads [who died] that I'm here today'.
