Kate Garraway shares gushing thanks to 'gallant stranger' for his act of kindness after enjoying Wembley Oasis gig with her kids
Kate Garraway has shared her gushing thanks to a 'gallant stranger' for his sweet act of kindness at an Oasis gig. The broadcaster, 58, took to Instagram over the weekend to share that she had been lucky enough to catch the Gallagher brothers' at Wembley the week before. Kate had been joined by her children, daughter Darcey, 19, and son Billy, 16, who she shares with her late husband Derek Drape - who tragically died last year at the age of 56 from COVID-19 complications. But Kate revealed that a kind stranger made her experience at the concert even more enjoyable, putting her on his shoulders so she could get a good view and 'relive her 20s'. She wrote: 'For all those catching the @oasis lads #murrayfield tonight you are in for the time of your life. This was us last week at Wembley - loving every second of it. 'Special mention has to go to the gallant stranger (bottom right) who hauled me onto his shoulders for #champagnesupernova to relive my 20's at #knebworth 96. 'I can only assume he didn't realise a) I'm heavier than I look & b) how long that song actually is !!! Do hope he's not spent all week at the chiropractor but eternally grateful!' Kate has been forced to sell her second home after Derek fought a brave four-year battle against Covid before tragically passing away in January last year. She is also battling company debts after Derek's psychotherapy firm Astra Aspera Ltd went bust owing hundreds of thousands to creditors including a huge sum to HMRC with Kate currently trying to pay back some of the debt. Now, the Good Morning Britain star is flogging a stunning three-bed, four-storey townhouse in Islington, north London, which the couple bought for £550,000 in 2004. The property had been up for rent for £6,750-a-month, but is now in the process of being sold, confirmed by the Land Registry Office, and should fetch around £2 million. In January last year, the Mail on Sunday reported that Kate was faced with having to sell her five-bedroom family home in Muswell Hill, but by selling her second home, this appears to have been avoided. Daily Mail have contacted Kate's representatives for comment at the time. One source said at the time: 'It is so sad for Kate. Not only has she had to watch her beloved husband suffer for almost four years but her financial worries have never been far away from her thoughts. She wrote: 'For all those catching the @oasis lads #murrayfield tonight you are in for the time of your life. This was us last week at Wembley - loving every second of it' 'It has cost hundreds of thousands of pounds to look after Derek and do everything she could to get him better but it's left her struggling. 'The house is about all she has left financially and she is now facing up to the fact it might have to be sold.' According to the rental listing for her Islington pad, it has a roof terrace and private garden. The blurb states: 'This beautifully presented 3-bedroom terraced house offers a perfect blend of modern living and period charm. 'Spread across four spacious floors, this property is ideal for those seeking comfort, style, and convenience. 'The ground floor features a welcoming living area with original features and ample space for relaxing or entertaining. 'The fully fitted kitchen is stylish and functional, leading directly to a private garden, perfect for outdoor dining or enjoying the fresh air. 'On the first and second floors, you'll find well-sized bedrooms, each offering plenty of natural light and built-in storage.

Rules on owning pets ease for families in 900 military homes in Northern Ireland
Families living in 900 military homes in Northern Ireland should find it easier to own pets under new rules announced on Sunday. Service personnel and their families have previously faced a bureaucratic process to get permission to own a pet if they live in military housing. From this week, they can now keep up to two dogs, cats or smaller pets without needing permission. The change is part of wider reforms that will allow military homes to be more personalised, including an easier process for allowing family members of troops to run a business from their home. The changes are part of Defence Secretary John Healey's pledge to 'stop the rot' and improve standards in service accommodation. In April, Mr Healey announced a new 'consumer charter' for service accommodation, including more reliable repairs, a named housing officer for every service family and a higher minimum standard for housing. The Government has also brought 36,000 military homes back into public ownership in an effort to reduce costs and improve standards.

Katherine Heigl Katherine Heigl worked with a homeopath throughout her pregnancy with son Joshua, now eight, and has her placenta encapsulated after his birth. Speaking to PEOPLE about it, she said: 'They told me that another mother down the hall had a company that freeze dries pills.
