Tom Parker and wife Kelsey spoke of wanting more children in interview before singer's death

Tom Parker and his wife Kelsey spoke openly about wanting to have more children in one of their last joint interviews together before the singer's tragic death on Wednesday (March 30). The 33-year-old from Bolton, who was a member of boyband The Wanted, died after a battle with an inoperable brain tumour.

His wife Kelsey confirmed the devastating news of Tom's passing on Wednesday afternoon, and scores of tributes have been pouring in ever since. He had been bravely fighting his tumour since he was diagnosed with it in 2020, whilst his wife was pregnant with their second child.

However last December, Tom, who shared Aurelia, two, and one-year-old Bodhi with partner Kelsey, was in high spirits and was optimistic about the couple's future, as they announced they wanted more children in an interview with OK!. He had previously detailed he had wanted to be cancer-free by March.
