Returning to her Smooth Radio gig, Kate dedicated a special song to her late husband on Monday.

“I just feel really honoured that you’ve shared your thoughts with me and I’m going to do my best to keep the music flowing,” Kate addressed in response to her fans “lovely and poignant messages.”

Weighing on the significance of this song for Derek’s family, she also revealed, “Now you may know that Elton John sang at my husband Derek’s funeral and it was a very special moment born out of him just being a lovely man.”

“And I just wanted to play him for you this morning,” she concluded.
