Good Morning Britain co-host Kate seems to be keeping her spirits up against the odds, however, as she proved on Sunday.

"Keep showing Grace. Keep on, the world needs you to believe in the good. 2021 is coming :-) Hold on. SMILE. :-)."

The mum-of-two captioned the sweet photo: "Written on a whiteboard on Derek’s ward to spur on staff and patients - not sure if have walked [past] it before or it's new, but definitely spoke to me today.

"Wonderful words as we brace ourselves for another week in these grim times - see you from 6am on @gmb with a smile."
