OHMYGOSSIP — Kate Garraway has signed up to appear in ‘DNA Journey’.
The 54-year-old TV presenter – whose husband Derek Draper contracted COVID-19 in March 2020 and has suffered life-changing complications as a result of the disease ever since – will take part in the ITV series alongside a host of other stars as she embarks on an “emotional” journey to discover more about her biological history.
ITV Head of Entertainment Commissioning Katie Rawcliffe said: “‘DNA Journey’ is an enthralling combination of heart-warming, emotional and high octane all at the same time, and it’s great to welcome some of TV’s favourite faces onto the show to delve deeper into their family histories and secrets.”
Kate – who won a BAFTA for her 2021 documentary ‘Finding Derek’, which explored her husband’s battle with the virus – will appear alongside ‘This Morning’ presenter Alison Hammond as she discovers her own DNA history, in a series set to air in the autumn.
The ‘Good Morning Britain’ presenter joins a host of stars who have each signed up in pairs for an episode to explore their family’s background, including the likes of ‘Coronation Street’ actresses Maureen Lipman, 75, and Rula Lenska,74, as well as ‘Dancing on Ice’ stars Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean and ‘The Chase’ favourites Anne Hegerty, 63 and Shaun Wallace, 61, whose episodes are set to air this spring.
Kate’s part of the series will air in autumn 2022 with on-screen ‘Gavin and Stacey’ couple Alison Steadman and Larry Lamb as well Joel Dommett and Tom Allen also taking part.
A spokesperson at Mitre Studios said “The great joy of ‘DNA Journey’ is that our stars have no idea where their trip is going to take them. It’s an absorbing, involving, voyage of discovery with a secret surprise or twist in every turn.”
