Kate Garraway arrives at late husband Derek Draper's funeral

[@karenneville-b8q]

I recently lost my husband after suffering a long 5 year llness. The wound heals but the the scar will always remain. Amongst her sadness she will also feel a release. Life must go on and I wish her well.

[@alfieakaronaldog]

My condolences 💐 Did you take your husbands name or keep your own when you married?

[@alfieakaronaldog]

@@Barbara-yj5tl It was just a question 🙋🏻‍♂️ I’m guessing the lady did take her husbands name as she had respect for him, and he was not a weak husband that allowed disrespect. I could be wrong though 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@alfieakaronaldog]

@@Barbara-yj5tl Can I make you aware that Ms Garraway wrote a book about her dead husband while he was dying FFS. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Kerching 🤑

God help GB NEWS, So many good people have been sacked because they spoke the truth on GB News, WHY didn't you ALL stand for whats RIGHT ? They wouldn't of sacked anyone orther presenters stood by those with integrity? Now the only man left standing for real hard hitting trooths is Neil Oliver whilst you all cower in corner like the tiny minded individuals you really are. All I watch on TV now is Neil Oliver and some Nigel Farage. THATS ME DONE.

The whole thing smacks! Publicised Draper had covid. Publicised he was on a ventilator and fighting for his life. Publicised he was going home. Publicised he'd died. Publicised his funeral. But no publication of thousands of other innocents who died or who died alone because their love one's were not aloud to visit. Yes, the whole thing smacks.

[@dogsenseforu301]

​@@annewalsh5528Anyone telling another how to behave is obviously acting in judgement themselves.... I have no gun in this fight and sympathise with any widow. I judge Blair (Draper heloed enable him) who gave the green light to killing >800 THOUSAND Muslims, created >a MILLION Muslim refugees and enabled ISIS and slave markets across the Middle East.... Netanyahu is using such destruction as a cover 'don't accuse me you hypocrites' for doing what was done in Iraq. - but Blair and his enablers are probably mates with both sides which enriches themselves personally. Realpolitik.
