Kate Garraway hails frontline workers amid husband's coronavirus battle

Kate Garraway has hailed frontline healthcare workers on Instagram amid her husband\'s coronavirus fight.

The 53-year-old broadcaster - who has been married to Derek Draper since 2005 - has revealed via the photo-sharing platform that her husband remains in intensive care as he battles the disease, but she\'s also thanked NHS workers for their hard work and bravery during the health crisis.

In a post on Thursday night (14.05.20), Kate wrote: "So our #nhsclap was a little different tonight. We still clapped & cheered as much as ever but I couldn\'t film on my phone as had Derek on FaceTime throughout! - ofcourse we can\'t KNOW but I believe he can hear us & thought at least the incredible @nhs team\'s looking after him would hear a fraction of our gratitude.
