Kate Garraway revealed to Good Morning Britain viewers today that she might be able to visit her husband Derek for the first time in hospital.
After returning to host the show for the first time yesterday, Kate shared the hopeful news with co-host Ben Shephard this morning.
Kate's husband Derek Draper, 52, was hospitalised in late March and later put into an induced coma after contracting coronavirus, the Mirror Online reports.
Despite being taken out of the coma after 13 weeks, Kate has been unable to see Derek in person once but is hopeful - as explained in he video above - she now may finally be able to visit him.
Kate shared: "I might be able to go and visit Derek today!"
Kate also added how the nurses caring for Derek are going the extra mile to aid his recovery, as she went on to add: "In fact the nurses are going to put GMB on for him - they have a TV - and they’re going to put it on for him this morning.
"They forgot I was on yesterday - they're going to see if he can hear anything."
Ben added: "See if there is any stimulation."
Kate added: "Yeah, trying everything we can do."
Yesterday, Kate issued a positive update on husband Derek after her first day back on Good Morning Britain.
She thanked her "patient" co-stars after she returned to work for the first time since Derek was hospitalised.
Taking to Instagram after her first day back at work alongside co-host Ben, Kate had some positive words about Derek's "stable" condition.
She wrote: "Thanks so much for your incredibly kind messages. Means such a lot . Derek had a stable day too so . See you at 6 a.m tomorrow xxx."
