The Princess of Wales penned Kate Garraway a "beautiful letter" while recuperating in hospital.
Kate, 42, was recovering at The London Clinic for 13 days after undergoing "planned abdominal surgery", however, she found time to write to Garraway following the death of her husband.
Derek Draper, Garraway's late husband, died on January 3, 2024, at the age of 56, following a long health battle.
The former political adviser died following complications from Covid-19 after contracting the virus in March 2020.

His funeral was held on Friday, February 2, where Garraway said her final goodbyes to her husband of 19 years.
Garraway said: "I had the most beautiful letter from David and Victoria Beckham – handwritten, very good handwriting… that was Darcey’s observation."
She added: "And from the Royal Family - Catherine and William sent a beautiful letter, and I know Catherine has been in hospital herself.
"Even the King - because there is somebody [who] knows about grief - that anticipatory grief where you know something has a risk of happening and how different it is when it does happen."

PAGarraway later confessed she had been "sort of sworn to secrecy" about the contents of the letters from the Royal Family.
She continued telling Good Morning Britain: "I just think it was lovely of them to reach out to me.
"But it's lovely to know that those people understand those emotions. I think for all of us, it connects us all together."
Garraway has previously expressed her gratitude to the Royal Family for their support throughout Draper's health battle.
