Kelsey Parker: The Wanted Tom Parker's widow reveals pregnancy is 'bittersweet' as trolls target her three years after pop star's death

The Wanted’s Tom Parker's widow Kelsey Parker has been viciously trolled after revealing she is having a third baby - three years after his death.

Kelsey, 33, is expecting a baby with her new boyfriend Will Lindsay. The new arrival will be joining her two kids Aurelia, five, and four-year-old Bodhi from her previous marriage.

It is three years since Tom died aged 33 in 2022 following a battle with a brain tumour

Kelsey told The Sun newspaper: "It’s crazy. I knew I would be judged. But people who haven’t lost their partner, I don’t know how you can pass comment on me? I have been in such a dark place from losing Tom.

"I was so lonely and so unhappy. I feel like there are people who want me to always feel like that. I feel like I do deserve to try and find a bit of happiness.

"I think people think I should be sitting at home and dressed in black all day. I have two children that I have to get out of bed for.

"People are shocked I go to [supermarket] Tesco but I need to feed my kids."

She went on to add Will doesn't see the online comments, but she's worried the trolls will ruin the special time for him as he prepares to become a dad.

Kelsey added: "While it’s been difficult for me, it’s horrible for Will, too. This is his first child and he’s preparing to be a dad. I’ve already had this experience. I feel like people are taking the excitement away from Will.

"Although the best thing about Will is that he reads nothing. He has no clue. He goes: 'Kelsey, I don't know why you're looking at those comments'."

Kelsey previously admitted her baby news feels "bittersweet" because she's still dealing with the loss of her husband.

She told Britain's OK! magazine: "Tom and I always said we wanted four—but life had other plans. So yes, this is amazing but also bittersweet.

"The joys of finding out I’m pregnant and moving forward with my life, while thinking, 'My life could have been so different.'

"I’ve felt every emotion under the sun. I’m still getting my head around it, but I’m so excited."

However, Kelsey feels Tom has given her his blessing to move on and regularly sends signs to show he is watching over her.

She said: “I’m very spiritual and so is Will. Especially after he lost his dad, he believes in signs from loved ones, like me – and I’ve had so many from Tom.

"Will’s seen them too – he doesn’t think I’m crazy...

"Tom does lights and TVs a lot, too. We’ve been in bed and at 1am the TV comes on by itself. So many things happen.

"Will and I are on the same page with spirituality. I honestly think Tom must have brought Will to me. I wasn’t actively dating or on the apps, then Will appeared. I feel Tom’s presence. I do feel Tom guides me."
