Kate won the Authored Documentary category for her ITV documentary, Derek’s Story.
The presenter broke down in tears live on TV as she dedicated her National Television Award to her late husband Derek Draper.
She was joined by was joined by their two children Darcey, 17, and Billy, 11.
Chatting on her Smooth radio show earlier today, Kate said: “Let’s talk NTAs.
“I just feel completely overwhelmed and so grateful for the win for our documentary highlighting the care system.
“As for Darcey and Billy, they were so proud of their dad.
“Although Darcey was also very over excited running everywhere nobbling Love Islanders and reality stars for photos.
“Lovely to see her having fun.
“But particular apologies must go to Bobby Brazier, who she actually interrupted while he was queuing for the loo!
“Poor soul. He was very nice about it.”
Kate said on stage while picking up her gong: “I really genuinely did not expect this, goodness me.
“This is a bittersweet one isn’t it? It’s very bitter to be here, with the gorgeous Darcey and Billy.
“I promised them they didn’t have to say anything. We’re halfway through the first year of firsts really.
“A first Easter and first birthdays, without Derek. It’s so strange to be here for the first Television Awards without him.”
NTAs was no big surprise, says our telly expert
COMMENT BY ROD MCPHEE
THE only surprise at tonight’s National Television Awards was that there were virtually no surprises.
Ant and Dec took home Presenter Award for the millionth time, Strictly bagged the Talent Show gong and I’m A Celebrity triumphed in the Entertainment category.
Kate Garraway scooping the authored documentary award for Derek’s Story was entirely deserved, but not a total shock either as she’d already done the same two years ago with Caring for Derek.
There were a few curveballs. Emmerdale beating Goliath soaps EastEnders and Corrie was unexpected, particularly as the rivals have both boasted big storylines recently.
And though there was no doubting how hugely moving Mr BatesVs The Post Office was for viewers this year, it was still stunning to see them bag three awards.
Does the general lack of surprises diminish the thrill of the NTAs? Not at all. It remains one of the few awards shows which actually gauges what the majority of Brits are actually watching.
We live in a bewildering world where scandals often rock shows, in an age where streaming means the shared experience is diminished and ratings are hard to decipher.
But year in, year out NTA voters leave us in no doubt which shows they adore, which ones they’ve fallen out of love with, and which celebrities they’re prepared to back.
Look at how quickly relatively new shows like The Traitors, Bridgerton and The 1% Club have been embraced by NTA voters.
They aren’t interested in PR stunts and promotion, in highbrow actors and writers lauded by their fellow luvvies and they certainly can’t stand having what they ought to be watching dictated to them
They tell us all loud and clear, every year, who they consider to be the best – and woe betide any telly exec who ignores them.
Derek tragically died in January after a brave four year battle with coronavirus and its life-changing complications.
Kate recently opened up about the heartbreaking “backlash” she endured over the documentary.
