Did her husband actually do anything famous enough to warrant so much coverage of his battle with illness?

Seems like every turn up/down she is in the press notifying us all which is getting a bit OTT to me.

Or am I the only one here?

Could be your choice of media? Wasn’t even aware he was ill.

Merely a case of famous celebrity having something going on in her personal life
that makes her appear like an amalgum of a normal person and Joan of Arc.

TV execs love it, same as Katie Price and her son Harvey

I know who she is but no idea who her husband is or what is wrong with him. Nor do I want to know, none of my business.

It's been thrown up on the BBC for me.

Right side says It's sad about the situation but left side says I'd be happy to help out if she's a little you know lacking in certain activities :

Crikey.

Your husbands dying, but worry not love you've got massive tits and a PHer will step in to shag you.


She's relatively famous, made a well received program about her husbands struggles with severe post covid complications, and it's now in the news when he becomes seriously ill.

Probably not, but he was pretty infamous as a political advisor to the Labour party.

Yes, he was. It may be a few years too many back in time - nearly 15 years - to be remembered easily, he was certainly infamous at the time.

I hope he recovers from his recent major heart attack, party politics is nothing while family (Kate/Derek) and health are everything.

To find it on the BBC front page you have to go down to "most read articles". Like when someone else on PH had a dig at the BBC for telling us about something a few days ago.

I saw her about 10 years ago by Essex Road Station. She was in jeans just going about her normal business. Absolutely beautiful.

I don't watch anything with Kate Garraway in it but I'd strongly argue that neither her nor Katie Price are Z-list. They are both very well known people.

Whilst the family hold their bedside vigil Ms Garraway has asked for publicity at this time

You do though.
But it doesnt fit your covid CT nonsense.

very true, but both have become so because they have pushed the media attention, more than what they have ever done in public if you know what i mean.

Katie Price was a glamour model and Kate Garraway is a TV news/current events presenter. That's why they got famous - for having jobs that are all about sticking their faces (and other bits) in front of us.
