A third wrote: "Stunning isn't it. Sending love @kategarraway." A fourth added: "Awww we can't see it here tonight yet Kate but nice to know we're all under the same sky… sending love to you and yours Kate," alongside a red love heart emoji.

The touching update came after the presenter took three weeks off GMB earlier this month after her husband Derek, 54, contracted life-threatening sepsis and was taken to hospital.

Kate has adapted her home to care for Derek 

Opening up about his setback, Kate revealed that Derek had to be rushed to intensive care after his kidneys became infected.

In some good news, Kate later revealed that Derek is now out of intensive care, waiting for a follow-up procedure.

Speaking to her co-host Richard Madeley, she added: "One kidney looking really good, just need to look at the other one and so yeah he's still in high dependency… The important thing is we're back on the right side of it now."

Derek has been suffering from severe health complications since contracting COVID-19 back in March 2020.
