GOOD Morning Britain star Kate Garraway has revealed an update on husband Derek Draper.<\/p>\n
Kate, 56, opened up on\u00a0Derek's progress at last night's National Television Awards -saying "we keep ploughing on".<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Derek is one of\u00a0the UK's\u00a0longest suffering\u00a0patients\u00a0of\u00a0Covid, yet has since been battling a variety of health problems, after the virus caused brain inflammation, kidney failure, and damage to his liver and pancreas.<\/p>\n
Kate exclusively told The Sun: \u201cHe's doing alright. There\u2019s been no dramatic progress I\u2019m afraid but we keep ploughing on.\u00a0<\/p>\n
"Derek and the kids are all watching at home but we\u2019ve got it on record too to watch together. <\/p>\n
"I\u2019m just glad I didn\u2019t fall over.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We have previously reported how Kate and Derek, who are parents of two, have turned to\u00a0help from experts in America\u00a0and a "potentially life-saving trial" in\u00a0Mexico.<\/p>\n
Kate previously said: "Disability has a wide-range – Derek hasn't got the cognitive skills or upper-body strength that you've got.<\/p>\n
"We realised we couldn't get him into the country.<\/p>\n
"He went forward [in the machine] and the door locked and then the disabled person has to free it.<\/p>\n
