Kate Garraway: "there was a card he'd written for me"

"I opened it up and there was a card he'd written for me, which I'd read at the time. It says how much he loves me, how proud of me he is, and that he was feeling so good about us. It was just so romantic and it feels so odd reading it now he's in this state," she revealed.

Kate continued, "You know that feeling, when you're driving along and someone pulls out in front of you and your heart lurches, so you drive really cautiously for the next five minutes and then calm down? Well, it's like you’re constantly in that heart lurch stage, without the calming down bit. It's the same for Derek's poor parents and sisters too. They're in Chorley and want to be here but can't be."
