Kate Garraway is hoping for a "miracle" amid her husband\'s coronavirus battle, according to Piers Morgan.

The 55-year-old presenter has revealed that his \'Good Morning Britain\' co-host still has no idea whether her husband, Derek Draper, will be able to overcome the disease.

He wrote in the Mail on Sunday newspaper: "Derek has now reached where nobody has any answers.

"Kate has been told he may never wake up, and all there is left to be done is wait and hope for a miracle."

Piers thinks Kate\'s uncertainty about her husband\'s health is "gut-wrenchingly sad".

Speaking about Kate\'s plan to renew her wedding vows, Piers said: "Now, agonisingly, Kate doesn\'t even know if she will ever get Derek home again, let alone to renew those vows. It\'s unbearably, gut-wrenchingly sad."

Meanwhile, Kate recently admitted she fears her husband could be trapped in a coma forever.

Derek was admitted to hospital on March 30, after struggling to breathe due to coronavirus, and Kate revealed that doctors have prepared her for the "second worst case scenario".

Kate said: "There was a terrible phone call two weeks ago from a senior doctor in the intensive care unit. He asked me what my greatest fear was.

"I said, \'Derek dying\' and he replied, \'Well, now I think I have to give you a second worst case scenario, which is that he never changes from this. That he is locked in this forever\'.

"He said, \'I\'m not telling you this to scare you. It\'s because we don\'t know if he can recover. We\'ll only know over the coming weeks and months\'.

"I threw up, there and then. People had said to me before that they thought he was going to die, but not that he might stay in this state."
