GOOD Morning Britain star Kate Garraway screams: "Derek, I miss you" in a harrowing new trailer.

The presenter, whose husband Derek Draper was taken to hospital battling coronavirus a year ago, has made a documentary about his struggle.

Today ITV released new footage from the film, which airs next week, showing Kate, 53, sorting through things at home.

Picking up a frame from a pile of items piled up by a door, she screams: "Derek, I miss you!"

The film also reveals the first footage of Derek, 53, seen since he was rushed to hospital in March 2020.

As he is shown in his intensive care bed in the trailer, Kate says: "Derek is the sickest person the team of doctors have treated that has lived.




"Is he going to be able to come back? Or will he be alive but no longer the person he was?"

Becoming overwhelmed with sadness, she adds: "You shouldn't have to think like that."

After contracting the virus more than a year ago, Derek faced an uphill battle to survive.

Coronavirus ravaged his body, his kidneys failed, he has liver and pancreas damage and his heart has stopped more than once.


Countless infections have left holes in his lungs and the battle has seen him lose eight stone.

However Kate said that doctors still can’t tell her whether Derek will recover – and they have warned her he may remain “locked in” for good.
