Heartbreaking question Tom Parker’s daughter asks mum Kelsey since The Wanted star’s death
LATE Tom Parker’s wife Kelsey has revealed the heartbreaking question that their daaughter asks her since The Wanted star’s death.
Tom sadly died aged 33 after a brave battle with brain cancer on March 30 2022.
The singer left behind his wife and their children Aurelia, three, and Bodhi, two.
Earlier today Kelsey appeared on Loose Women to talk about how things have been over the past year without him.
Jane Moore mentioned how there is a fine line between keeping children’s lives normal, but also trying to keep a loved-ones memory alive when they pass.
Kelsey said: “Yeah it definitely is that. Obviously it’s not normal for them and now Aurelia does ask me like why her best friend has got a dad and she’s not got a dad.
“I’m getting those questions already. I know those questions are going to progress and they’re going to turn into different questions.
“It’s just really difficult obviously being a solo parent.”
Kay asked if she got any advice on how to deal with those kind of situations.
Kelsey added: “I’ve had advice, but also for me, naturally what has come for me is to be honest.
“Be as honest as you possibly can. You have got a dad, your dad is not here though darling. What else can I say to her?”
Tom died just 18 months after he was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour.
The singer, who found fame as part of pop band The Wanted, was diagnosed with an inoperable stage 4 glioblastoma in October 2020.
The star underwent treatments to prolong his life, including chemotherapy and 30 radiotherapy sessions, passed away on March 30 in a local hospice with Kelsey at his side.
