Kate Garraway Opens Up On Caring For Her Husband & Receiving An MBE | This Morning

[@tianabukedde4782]

I love Kate,she is such a honest person because she is doing everything for Derek,her children and family.❤❤I admire her so much. Love you Kate,we will also support you all the way!!

[@carolewilliams9804]

I realise it is very hard taking care of someone who is disabled but Kate has a good income and has received help but when you have to give up your job and your life to take care of someone you love we can't go write a book and go on tv and speak about it everyday is the same no one even gives a damn

[@melgrant7404]

Agree she still can work and make money out of a book too.

[@ElaineReade]

Shes absolutely amazing woman dont know she juggles everything

[@LJ-ze6ro]

She has alot of help and ghats why she is able to juggle everything as hard as it is still but not many can still have that little freedom to do the things they love still..to be able to recoop and restart again ..yes carers come in to help but they go when you have nobody to rely on to stay with that person while you yourself do what Kate is able to then it's a huge difference. .even close family who are not seen everyday having to explain what they like and what to give and so on for some they think it's a case of coming to just sit and make sure they are ok and have no idea of the changing the feeding and so on and so you still are the sole carer because there isn't that second person who knows everything as I did. Accept my sister but when she was working then others had no idea even when told the first time of what to do and how to change our dad other than come and keep an eye on him. So yes makes a huge difference when you have those around you like kate has.

[@luciadonnelly7145]

Exactly 👏👏 my sister and I our lives have halted, our life is my elderly dad who has no mobility anymore and needs 24/7 care and we get on with it, maybe I should write a book or two, oh wait, I don’t have time to scratch my a@s let alone look at a book cover, she went on holidays etc clearly got lots of rest, however poor Derek passed away, his suffering is now over, I hope he is at peace

I recently lost my mom after being her caregiver for four years. Among all the other aspects of grief, I was not prepared for the challenges associated with coming down from such a prolonged period of hyper vigilance, and lacking my own sense of purpose after being so busy with her for so long. Hard to imagine doing things for myself now without feeling guilty or like something is wrong.

[@gabrielletanner5339]

I looked after my husband for four years on my own, but luckily i was retired..very difficult at times because you have to do absolutely everything and it's difficult when you are older and you have to conserve energy so housework is left because you can't do everything. It's been eight months since he passed, beside me. This time after seeing others pass by the time you get to your late sixties, it hit me like a brick and i've been on my i -pad for all that time, it helps take your mind off everything and soon I'll get back to normal.

[@wonderwoman5528]

It sucks beyond belief that poor people and people with little support have to struggle alone with no one to tell them how well they’re doing, but it’s not Kate’s fault. If anything, she is shining a light on the caring community out there. If you had her platform, money and contacts, you would use them, the same as she does. It’s not her fault she’s privileged, and it doesn’t mean she’s not suffering.

[@melgrant7404]

But people who are struggling don't want to know about her wealth and contacts and team of professional carers. In that respect she is actually shining a light on how her wealth separates her from other carers. The fact remains that people find her annoying because they are skint. That will always be the rub.

[@melgrant7404]

You don't need a medal to recognise the importance of what you do. Any one who cares for loved ones knows this. Your daughter and family know what you do and that's what counts xx Kate only got an award on the back of being a celebrity .celebs are the only ones that seem to count in this day and age. I care for my elderly father unpaid but it comes obviously from love and devotion however hard it is. Take a pride in doing a very important job that is appreciated by your loved ones which is what really counts xx.

To be fair she is a well off woman and has a team of carers who enable her to work to earn good money. Unlike people who have to give up work to care for family. She cannot compare her situation to many less well off carers.

[@URFUTUREUK]

It's such a flawed system. I think even if you have carers coming in and you can afford the whole package, the emotional toll can be unbearable at times. But you're very right, those people are isolated and have very little support or funding and constantly being forced to fight to be a part of society. Getting out of the house can seem impossible for days or weeks. Those people that are left alone and often get very unwell. Personal experience. But I still think it's tough, when someone you love is suffering, whether you have money or not. Either situation is tragic because of the emotional challenges. The people without these resources are VERY resilient.

As a carer for the last 30 years and a campaigner for carers for 20 of them, the "6 million carers" statistic is a charity based lie! That is more than the number of disabled people in the country. Carers UK class someone that goes to a non-disabled person's home to do a bit of gardening or shopping as "a carer" and they damn well are not. Carers care for disabled people, it's that simple. Kate, if you want to highlight what we do then speak to US not a charity worker that has no mandate to speak for us, it's our lives not theirs. They nor you will ever know the loneliness of being a carer as family members and friends drift away, and you are left to graft your whatsits off for a pittance. The challenge also goes out to this programme, I'm a novice of 30 years a carer, next year my Carers Allowance is stolen off me because I reach State Pension age, and you can't claim both benefits at the same time.

They probably can’t afford the help they need they are alone and have no one to talk to about the stress and she has the nerve to start blabbing on TV to get audiences sympathy votes. Kate have some respect for your husband and his dignity. How much have you made from your book ? There’s no privacy for your husband is there.?/

[@melgrant7404]

Agree.

[@Guywithnoidentity]

Theres only so many times she can keep dragging this story out. They made a programme about it which she would have made money from and still she continues to beg for publicity

[@melgrant7404]

Yes and getting an award for something she doesn't do as it's her team of carers that do it all.

[@kerriejones5170]

Yes begging for more attention and publicity

[@jacksg1809]

I spent 12 years with my partner looking after him till he got so bad he needed a transplant like yesterday which he had .. yes it is v hard looking after the one u love 24/7 doing literally everything . Sorry Kate but ur wringing this every few months .😊

[@andrewbowyer5043]

Is her husband ill, had no idea, she hasn't mentioned it (!)

[@williamlaxton3978]

I thought UK citizens were entitled to care allowances when supporting family members with incapacity.

[@jewelssunsun9450]

She had carers in 24/7, so she wasn't actually doing the caring.

[@sarahgoodman7824]

Kate is incrediable and inspiring x

[@karenwalker5828]

MTF lol

[@braveheart196]

She has a new boy friend lets hope she stays healthy 😂

[@ghostwhisperer235]

Ohh pls 🥱🥱🥱🥱

[@vandahuman8522]

Using her husband to stay in the news, what about the hundreds of normal people who have been carers for years and received no media coverage.

[@MarionFindlay-s9s]

[@louloua21]

[@julieclegg5262]

She is getting a lot of money for all this att m

Kate Garroway doing the one eyed symbol for the click photo, something not quite right

[@georgedonaldson1516]

Monetising misery. Awful.

[@jean2740]

There is not a day goes by when Kaye Garraway is never going on and on and on and on . I think she must be a millionaire now ,who looks after her husband when she's on telly ????...

[@mariahilling605]

Fox thanks for that. Kate should have enough of a support network to who how difficult it is being a full time carer, which I’m sure she’s not because she has time to take photos of her husband in hospital beds and helplessly wheel chair bound and the go on morning to TV and show millions of viewers. How humiliating is that. There are hundreds of child cares out there who get on with it with no support and help. So shut up Kate and give your lovely husband some of his dignity. Then sort yourself out but don’t expect all the viewers to do it for you.

[@mariahilling605]

No not taxpayers I meant stop parading him.

[@annajordaney2919]

That holly person looks so rough never liked her

[@nubianqueen4375]

She chose career over the care of her husband.

[@melgrant7404]

Agree. It's good money.
