"It was so so special to see her Derek, Bill and Darcy along with her amazing parents altogether for such a special occasion.
"She never fails to inspire and infuriate me in equal measure and I wouldn't have it any other way!!
"Can't tell you how proud I was to see my friend honoured like this [and] to be surrounded by all their family friends and colleagues. Keep being you Kate - there is no one like you (thank goodness!!!)"
