Speaking before her spouse's death, Kate stated: 'Derek's care expenses more than my wage from ITV and that is before you spend for a mortgage, before you pay any household expenses, before you spend for anything for the kids, so we are at a crunch point.

'I owe money. I can't earn sufficient cash to cover my financial obligation because I am managing Derek's care and I can't even utilize the cash I do have to support Derek's healing, since it's going on the essentials all the time.'
