Good Morning Britain host Kate Garraway provided an update on her husband Derek Draper's condition, revealing that he has been well enough to attend an event.
The ITV presenter, aged 56, shared with viewers that her husband was invited to former Labour minister Lord Peter Mandelson's wedding over the weekend.
On today's Good Morning Britain, she expressed her gratitude to Peter and his husband and long-time partner, Reinaldo, for being accommodating to Derek's needs, saying that it 'meant the world to him.'

John Bercow appears to visit Stowe School most years - perhaps every year.
Lord Alistair McAlpine (above), who was at the centre of the UK child abuse scandal, is listed in Jeffrey Epstein's Black Book.
Having represented the Buckingham constituency since , it seems likely that Mr Bercow would have met and known fellow Conservative and 'Old Stoic', Lord Alistair McAlpine, during an event at Stowe School for alumni (to which a local MP would normally be invited).
John Bercow's wife, Sally, certainly angered Lord McAlpine by her tweeting in - that is, if one believes the media coverage this generated.
Many, however, believe that the Bercows and Lord McAlpine - both closely linked to Stowe School
Kate Garraway and Derek Draper are guests at wedding of Lord Mandelson as he ties the knot with new husband Reinaldo Avila da Silva after 27 years together - with Tony Blair also at Marylebone service
Lord Mandelson has married his long-term partner at a wedding attended by guests including Kate Garraway, her husband Derek Draper and former prime minister Tony Blair.
The Labour grandee, 70, said he was 'delighted' to tie the knot with Reinaldo Avila da Silva, 51, at the Old Marylebone Town Hall in London yesterday after 27 years together.
The newlyweds, who met via mutual friends in , beamed as wedding guests threw confetti over them as they walked out of the ceremony.
There was also a touching moment where Mandelson shook the hand of his former researcher and adviser Mr Draper who attended the wedding in a wheelchair in a rare outing. The peer held Miss Garraway's hand at the same time.
Mr Draper - who worked for Mandelson in the 90s - was diagnosed with coronavirus at the beginning of the pandemic in March and left in a life-threatening condition. He now requires 24/7 care at home.

SEBASTIAN SHAKESPEARE: Mandy and mystery of his Brazilian partner Reinaldo the 'osteopath'
Hands-on: Lord Mandelson and Reinaldo walk their dog in Notting Hill
While Lord Mandelson’s moolah-making activities are well-documented, it has always been a bit of a mystery how his exotically named Brazilian partner Reinaldo Avila da Silva earns his crust.
But the riddle may be about to be solved. For in a rare glimpse above the parapet, Reinaldo has popped up on social media site LinkedIn.
Under his employment listing, he claims to be an osteopath, the alternative therapy treatment that involves manipulating muscle tissue and bones.
However, it may be that Reinaldo’s talents are for his lordship’s creaking bones alone. He doesn’t appear to be registered with the practice’s governing body, the General Osteopathic Council, meaning he would not be allowed to practise professionally.
‘Anyone who wants to practise [osteopathy] has to be registered with us,’ says a GOC spokesman.
‘If they are not on our register, theoretically, they are committing a criminal offence.’
Reinaldo, 42, who became a British citizen in , has been a loyal companion of the former Business Secretary for
