Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway made a candid health admission on the ITV show on Friday as she told her co-stars that she was feeling ‘a bit odd’
Kate Garraway admitted “I feel a bit odd” during a conversation with Richard Arnold and Rob Rinder on Friday’s edition of Good Morning Britain.
The presenter mentioned her altered state as she discussed changing her thyroid medication, noting that co-star Richard’s animated antics weren’t making things any easier for her.
Just before the exchange took place, Richard had provided some updates on Strictly: “Strictly returns to BBC One this Saturday evening from 7.20pm and catch GMB on Monday for our chat with the stars backstage.”
Interrupting, Kate confessed: “Can I just mention that I have changed my thyroid medication and everything is slightly surreal and you’re not helping.”
Richard, caught off guard by her admission, quipped: “Right…we have worked together for 24 years, I have never helped, you have always got your fingers on the edge of the cliff.”
He then enquired concernedly: “Have you really changed your meds? ” prompting Kate to reveal: “I feel a bit odd, I confess that now,” reports the Mirror.
In another touching segment of the show, Kate was visibly moved during an interview with Linda Alushi, a mother mourning the loss of her young son, Daniel Klosi, who died from sepsis at just four years old.
Despite being taken to the Royal Free Hospital in Camden on four occasions within one week by his anxious parents, his condition deteriorated and he tragically died.
Linda shared her heartache on ITV alongside actor Jason Watkins, who similarly experienced the devastating loss of his two-year-old daughter to sepsis.
Reflecting on their painful experience, Linda recounted being told to administer paracetamol and wait for Daniel’s temperature to subside, reassured by medical staff that he would recover.
“The next day, he was not well – obviously we didn’t send him to nursery. He wasn’t eating, he wasn’t drinking, he wasn’t the Daniel we knew.”
She continued: “He would stay all day in our arms. Something we’ve never seen before. We’d seen him with a virus before and his temperature would go down, and he’d start eating and drinking. This time, there was no improvement.”
“He would stay all day in our arms. Something we’ve never seen before. We’d seen him with a virus before and his temperature would go down, and he’d start eating and drinking. This time, there was no improvement.”
Speaking about his own experience, Jason, who stars in McDonald and Dodds, said: “That’s one of the painful things, thinking, ‘Did we do everything we could?’ It’s easy to blame yourself… because I was there the second time she was discharged.
“We are an imperfect family who have survived the worst thing that can happen to a parent. It’s indescribable, the sense of guilt, loss, the absence of your child, the light of your life is gone and you don’t know how you can go on.”
On Wednesday, Kate won the award for Best Authored Documentary at the National Television Awards for her documentary about her husband, the late Derek Draper.
Kate’s children, Billy and Darcey stood beside their mum on stage as she gave an emotional thank-you speech. Derek died earlier this year following complications from a four-year battle with Covid.
