Kate, 55, returned to TV yesterday.
She said: “Derek came out of hospital three weeks ago and we hadn’t had any medical eruptions.
“Then we were on air and I got a phone call from the person looking after him saying, ‘We’re really worried’.”
He was taken to A&E where doctors found his kidneys were infected.
Last night Derek, 54, was still in hospital but out of intensive care.
Kate added: “The sepsis is under control. One kidney is looking really good, just need to look at the other one.
“We’re back on the right side of it now.”
Kate went on to thank the public for their messages of support and praised doctors for keeping him alive.
She said: “It’s lovely to be back and thank you for all your good wishes as always, it means everything.”

Speaking to The Celeb Report previously, Kate said she tried to keep a smile on her face despite the hardships they faced.
Kate said: “I’m really tired but I take it day by day to level out the ups and downs.”
She also said at a London awards show: “I try to embrace life, especially the kids as we’ve had two and a half years of it.
“Their lives have changed and they need to do things.”
