Heartbreaking reports have been published indicating that Kate Garraway is set to make a "desperate" bid to save her husband Derek Draper in what some claim she fears could be her final hope. The ITV Good Morning Britain host's plight has been reported in a national magazine.
Kate has previously shared details of her and Derek's life following his battle with Covid and the devastating effect it had on his health, in the documentary, Kate Garraway: Caring for Derek (which can be seen on ITVX). The ITV presenter and I'm A Celebrity star is now said to be set to fly across the world with her husband, a former Labour Party advisor, to undergo pioneering treatment.
Kate wants to push ahead with the treatment, according to Birmingham Live, viewing it as her “her last hope”. In 2021 and 2022, Derek travelled to Mexico for clinical trials.

A source told Bella Magazine: “This really is Kate’s desperate bid to try and save Derek’s life and she is willing to try anything." Adding: “She’s been looking into a number of experimental medical options around the world and particularly in Mexico in an effort to save him from the devastating effects of Covid-19. Kate only wants the best for Derek. She wants to try it because she feels as though it’s her last hope.”
Kate recently praised Derek's carers in a touching post on Instagram. "Many of you will remember Jake who cared for Derek when he first came out of hospital in April 21 - from the documentary #caringforderek, so you will know what a wonderful healthcare professional he is. But have just found out he’s also an amazing musician - under the name @sencymiller.x," Kate said.
"He’s just released a song called #okukuseku (check it out in his bio) - which no surprise is full of love & inspiration to keep going & never give up. The world of carers never fails to surprise me with their depths of talent, thoughtfulness and motivation #happyfriday all!"
Kate is "refusing to give up" on Derek's health battle. In February, she shared: “We can’t give up on him. This doctor dealt with people, not as severe as Derek, but in the area. The doctor offered us the chance to be a test case.”
She added: “When he first came back the fatigue was overwhelming. They said that was a good thing. We’re starting to see little by little improvements. I really hope it can build.”
