Upon her departure, she shared a heartfelt farewell, noting the impact of her late husband's tragic death from long Covid.
She said: 'I’ve had a lot of years of being very serious and very sad, and you’ve all allowed me to play the most amazing game, be silly and have fun.'
It comes after Kate confessed she initially refused to carry a coffin during Celebrity Traitors as it triggered memories of the death of her husband Derek.
The host was widowed in January 2024 when Derek passed away after a four-year battle against long Covid.

And now the star has admitted she did a 'double-take' and 'gasped' when she saw the coffins in the second mission.
While traitor Alan Carr was often heard teasing Kate for her 'useless' game play, in scenes not aired, Kate explained she leaned on him and Celia Imrie for support.
'You don't know what's coming next, and so you find yourself walking on by the coffins. And I did a double-take, I gasped, and I was walking with Alan, and Celia was in front of me,' she told The Sun.
Kate explained she talked things through with the production team, who made sure to check in with her, as did the psychologist on site.
She added: 'But you're suddenly in the moment and I said, "I'm not sure. I think it's a bit strange and a bit weird".'
Opening up about her relationship with Celia, 73, Kate recalled how the pair had intense conversations about her being a parent to her two children, now that their father isn't around.
She admitted: 'She gave me such brilliant, perceptive advice. I really have been trying to live by that. I've cried more since the Traitors about pure missing Derek than before.'
