Kate Garraway's son Billy, 14, shares tear-jerking moment with his dad Derek Draper as he looks after him at his bedside in new documentary


Kate Garraway's 14-year-old son Billy shares a tender moment with his dad Derek Draper in the upcoming documentary about his life and health battle.

Offering a heartbreakingly honest account of how Derek's condition had impacted their 19-year marriage, she continued: 'Sometimes you show love with a big bouquet of roses or bringing a cup of tea and he can't do any of that for me. Kate's late husband was plagued with health woes after contracting Covid in March 2020, which saw him put in a coma, battle sepsis and left with difficulties communicating. On New Year's Eve she reflects on a 'calamitous' Christmas without Derek, as her house was flooded and she struggled to get a food delivery slot until her pal Emma Willis stepped in to help.
