The TV star got into her Peugeot 3008 boot to gather up the plants and joked that she was "singing for her supper".

Wearing black jeans and a knitted smiley face jumper, Kate was pictured handing her dad various shrubs.

She wrote: "Everyone sings for their supper in my house! Thanks to my Dads wonderful energy at 87 ( I get my gardening passion from him) & a surprisingly capacious Peugeot 3008 boot!

"We are cracking on with some spring planting today.

"It’s amazing what he’ll do for one of my apple crumbles!?!!"

It was announced earlier this week that DNA Journey has returned to ITV with Kate Garraway and a host of other star-studded cast.

The Life Stories host has bravely shared her family’s struggle since her husband Derek Draper was struck by Covid.

And the presenter is set to dig even deeper as the star signing for the new series of DNA Journeys.

Last week viewers saw the presenter relieve the horror of husband Derek’s Covid battle on BBC2 programme Your Body Uncovered.

She appeared on the BBC2 show, which gives people amazing visual representations of their condition - and witnesses exactly happened to Derek's lungs.

Kate’s husband Derek caught Covid very early on the in pandemic and spent 374 days in hospital.

He is still very ill after suffering organ failure and clots on his lung. He may also never be able to walk again because the tendons and muscles in his legs have seized up from having been in an induced coma for so long.

Kate met with Rozi, a grandma of 23 grandchildren, who wanted to find out why coronavirus had hit her so hard and shared her own experiences with her.

Rozi was struck with the virus in the summer, after a holiday with her family.

She ended up being taken to hospital by her husband Jonny while struggling to breathe, and she didn't reemerge for almost a fortnight.

She told Kate: "I never felt so bad in my life. I just thought to myself I'm never coming out of here."

Kate saw a detailed augmented reality depictions of Rozi's lungs, created using hospital scans when her body was in the throes of a severe Covid infection.

Rozi gasped while looking at the images, full of bright orange "angry" Covid.

The doctor who treated her in hospital told her more than a quarter of her air sacs had filled with fluid, mucus and dead cells, which left her struggling to breathe.
