The Wanted singer Tom Parker's wife launches appeal in her late husband's honour

The heartbroken wife of Tom Parker, the lead singer of The Wanted, is calling on fans to honour his memory by helping charities. Tom tragically passed away of brain cancer this week aged just 33.

Kelsey Parker and Tom got married in July 2018. She has set up a GoFundMe page in his honour which reads: "I am Kelsey Parker, very proud wife of Tom Parker, probably best known for being one-fifth of UK boyband The Wanted, but to those who knew him he was my husband, a Daddy, son, brother and friend.

"As many of you know, Tom was diagnosed with a brain tumour in October 2020 and on Wednesday 30th March 2022 he passed away peacefully with all of his closest friends and family by his side. Our hearts are truly broken, Tom was the centre of our world and we can't imagine life without him, but one of the biggest sources of comfort over the last 2 years has been the outpouring of love and support we’ve all received.
