Max George bravely spoke at the funeral of his The Wanted bandmate Tom Parker's funeral as it was held today. Hundreds of fans gathered as the singer's friends and family headed to celebrate his life.
Tom, from Bolton, who shot to fame as one-fifth of the pop boyband, tragically died aged just 33 last month surrounded by his family. His passing came 17 months after he was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour in 2020. He revealed the news of his diagnosis to fans in October 2020 when his wife, Kelsey, was pregnant with their second child.
His widow Kelsey, who he married in 2018 and with who he shared two children, Aurelia, two, and one-year-old son Bodhi, announced the news of his death on March 30 with a statement posted on Instagram alongside a grey and white picture of Tom, telling fans: "Our hearts are broken."
