Kate Garraway is heading on her first family holiday with her parents since the death of her husband, Derek Draper, on 3 January.
As you can see in the clip below, Kate explained how the family were set to head to Cornwall for their "annual" tradition. There was a little bit of excitement for the star as she had gotten a new car, which enabled her to drive her family down to the coast, alongside all their substantial inventory.
In her caption, Kate explained: "We haven't had a car since Vickie Volvo was stolen and Percy Peugeot had to go back but thanks to some amazing friends who've helped me loan a brand new @volvocaruk C90 - I absolutely love it!!!!! Not an advert just a passion!"
However, she also revealed her conflicted feelings over the gift, sharing: "Feels like old times with hands on an @volvocars wheel, although bittersweet as this would have been the perfect car to carry Derek in and out of with plenty of room for a hoist and wheelchair in the back.

Kate concluded: "Now just have to find a name for it?! Hope everyone is having a lovely Saturday."

Sharing a video from her garden, the mum-of-two said: "I have had the most amazing day in the garden. I loved doing the garden when Derek wasn't well because it felt like when I was planting and doing stuff, when we could get him outside he could come and be with me.

In a touching moment, the TV star recalled how she and Derek had dreamt of having wildflowers in their garden before they bought what would become their family home, after "only having a small patio big enough to have a glass of wine on" before.
