Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway has revealed why she missed the eighth anniversary of the hit TV breakfast show. The host updated her 1.1 million Instagram followers, telling them that she had to deal with some "urgents" at home.
Kate usually co-hosts Friday's GMB alongside Ben Shephard but colleague Charlotte Hawkins stepped in instead on Friday, April 30, after she was nowhere to be seen during the latest broadcast. Ahead of the airing of her pre-recorded Saturday morning series Garraway's Good Stuff, the star explained why she missed her regular show, as reported by The Daily Record.
Kate wrote: "So apologies for my absence from @gmb this last week - had to deal with some 'urgents' at home. But before that managed to get a whole hour dollop of #garrawaysgoodstuff in the bag for you.

"Great #feelgood shares from @peterandre & @jamesbaymusic - plus this?!" Good sport Kate shared a fun video from the show of her trampolining with singer Peter Andre.
"Note to self - wear a sports bra - note to @peterandre - wear a belt," she added. "Join me 8.30 a.m. on @itv." Fans supportively replied to Kate's message. One wrote: "Lots of love Kate hope derek n kids ok xxxxx."
Kate's life has been turned upside down since her husband Derek Draper fell ill with Covid in March 2020. He spent over a year in hospital, and is now at home with Kate and their children. It’s thought Derek is one of the worst affected Covid survivors.
