KATE Garraway clutched husband Derek Draper’s hand “throughout the last long hours” as he lost a near four-year battle against Covid.
Announcing his death on Instagram, the Good Morning Britain star, 56, said she was still holding him “when he passed”.
She added: “Rest gently and peacefully Derek, my love, I was so lucky to have you in my life.’’
