ITV This Morning: The Wanted singer Max George still texts Tom Parker

Max George has spoken about his late bandmate Tom Parker’s new book and revealed he still texts the late singer on This Morning on Tuesday.

ITV's Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary asked how The Wanted singer was coping without his best friend. Tom died on March 30 earlier this year having been diagnosed with inoperable grade 4 glioblastoma, a brain tumour, in October 2020.

Max, 33, said: “I’m still trying to process it, I still text him actually. If I get pictures or stuff that fans have made with him in it or they send a nice message to do with Tom, I’ll WhatsApp it to him. I just find a bit of comfort in that. The worst bit is when I’m not doing it and I do it accidentally. Sometimes I go to do it and I’m like, ‘Oh no’.”
