Kate Garraway is returning to GMB tomorrow after taking almost four months off work as her husband Derek Draper battled coronavirus.
The telly star's partner remains seriously ill in hospital, but Kate, 55, has decided to go back to her job after doctors told her to "get on" with her life.
GMB bosses have since tweeted about her return, writing: "Kate Garraway is returning to GMB tomorrow! We can't wait."
She made an appearance on GMB last week to give an update on Derek's condition, and she told fans about her plan to return to work.
Speaking on the show, she explained: "I'm gonna come back. I'm afraid. I'm back on Monday if you'll have me."
"I haven't got the fight to be with Piers Morgan," she joked. But I'm back with Ben Shepherd."
Piers is now on his two month summer break along with Susanna Reid so Kate will be appearing with Ben instead.
Kate admitted doctors have been concerned about her after she put her life on hold while Derek was fighting for his life in hospital.
She explained: ""I've got to get going. I've got to get back. Everyone else is doing it and I'm no diferent.
"Derek would not just be saying, ‘Come back’, he’d be saying, ‘Why haven’t you done it before?'"
The mum-of-two also shared her children's sweet reaction when she told them she was returning to her TV duties.
"Darcey said: 'Do we have to go to bed early?'" laughed Kate.
