Friends and fans were quick to react, with Amanda Holden writing: "How wonderful," followed by a red heart emoji.
A fan added: "Bless you Kate, you deserve a break. I hope that you really had a fantastic break with your family you are an inspiration to us all."
Another remarked: "Beautiful to see them having fun after all this time and knowing how brave you've all been. I'm certain Derek would be happy that you're all having a good time."
Kate has had a challenging year since her husband was admitted to hospital and placed in a coma last year. Earlier in April, Derek returned home by ambulance to be cared for by his family and special nurses.
Speaking about it days later on her ITV breakfast show, Kate revealed: "It was a medical reason for coming home, as well as obviously our desire and I'm sure his desire too, to try and encourage a more normal environment to stimulate his recovery, cognition, and consciousness better. It is a very unique situation so they're trying to find unique solutions."
