Piers Morgan has fiercely defended his close friend Kate Garraway against online trolls who targeted the Good Morning Britain host following the tragic passing of her husband, Derek Draper.Kate's beloved husband Derek sadly passed away in January at just 56 years old after a tough four-year fight.

Derek's health took a severe turn for the worse when he experienced life-altering and long-lasting effects of Covid.Last night's documentary showing his last few weeks revealed many heart-wrenching details about Derek, his wife Kate, and their two children's struggle to get the care he desperately needed.

Kate and her kids looked after the former political advisor during his four-year health battle with the assistance of several carers, costing £16,000 a month.Derek's Story, which was shown on ITV on Tuesday night, gave viewers a glimpse into the former politician's heartbreaking final year with his family while fighting his illness.

After Derek's death in January, Kate had to stand up to vile online claims from those who tried to accuse her of not mourning 'properly' as she went back to work just weeks after her husband's passing.Some others have taken issue with the TV presenter, accusing her of capitalising on Derek's tragic health struggle through books and three documentaries about his challenging journey.
