During Thursday 13 June’s Good Morning Britain, Kate Garraway promised not to shed any tears as she shared a moving moment with television icon Anita Harris.

Tragically, 12 months ago, Anita lost her husband Mike; whilst on the other hand, Kate, 57, also suffered the loss of her husband Derek Draper earlier this year.
A poignant moment ensued when Anita comforted Kate saying: "How precious this moment is to see you after seeing you go through everything and darling, Ed, you're wonderful for all the viewers." "But for me, I was a bit parallel with you [Kate] darling, but we're not here to, we're here to bring joy" added Anita, to which Kate replied: "We're not going to cry, we're not going to cry, are we? We're not going to cry because we want hope." At the end of the chat, both ladies exchanged another warm moment with Anita wishing well, particularly for Kate's children, stating: "I hope everything's good for you and the young ones". Sadly, in January, Kate announced the passing of her husband at the age of 56 after suffering long-lasting symptoms from coronavirus.
