“She’s clearly not well, look after her please ITV! Where’s the rest of the clan!!”
Another commented: “Isn’t Kate going to lose her voice completely, being made to talk.”

“Why? It’s not heroic, it’s annoying.”
The Good Morning Britain were nominated in the Daytime category at the NTAs last week but lost out to This Morning.
However, Celebrity Traitors took home the award for Reality Competition, as Kate took to the stage with her co-stars to accept the trophy.
She also took part in a musical performance with Amanda Holden, Paloma Faith and Charlotte Church as they paid tribute to Alan Carr, who received the Special Recognition Award.
