Tom Parker's widow Kelsey claims her late husband sends her signs from beyond the grave

Kelsey Parker has revealed her late husband Tom Parker still contacts her from beyond the grave.

The Wanted singer battled a year-and-a-half-long battle with stage four glioblastoma brain cancer before he died last March.

Now, his widow and mum of his two kids has revealed how he "strokes her face" at night and helps her make decisions regarding Aurelia, three, and Bodhi, two.

The 33-year-old said: "I feel Tom's presence all the time. This month he's been with me a lot. I ask him for signs and he gives me them. He strokes my face when I'm asleep."

She told the Daily Star: "I'll see feathers everywhere. It happened when I went to the park the other day. There were feathers on the floor. No-one else noticed them but I did.

'"Feeling Tom is there helps me know that I'm doing the right thing. I'll ask him if I'm doing the right thing for the kids and he'll show me a sign. If you ask, they will show. But you have to ask out loud."

Kelsey recently admitted that telling her children "Daddy isn't here anymore" was the "hardest conversation" she has ever had to do.

In the heartbreaking interview, Kelsey opened up about the day she lost the Wanted star.

She said she knew when Tom was going to die as his breathing had changed and so she pulled herself together to tell her children she was visiting the hospice to say her last goodbye.

"The day he was going to die I said to her (Aurelia), 'I am going to the hospice to see Dad because I have got to make sure the angels take him today." she said.

"We came back in the evening and in the morning I said, 'Daddy isn't here any more. He is in the sky with the angels and the butterflies." she told The Sun.

"They accepted it but now we get a lot of questions. Aurelia will ask, 'Why has my best friend got a dad and I haven't got a dad any more?' I say, 'You do have a dad, he is not here'."

The pair married in 2018 and had a 13-year relationship before his sad death.

The actress also said that in the middle of the night, a Build-A-Bear with Tom's song sometimes plays without warning and she felt his presence when she trekked to the Sahara desert for charity, she got up to the top of a dune and saw a butterfly.

She has documented her loss in a documentary with ITV, called Life After Tom, and spent the anniversary of his death visiting one of his benches on a walk with her loved ones.

Kelsey promises to continue Tom's legacy to keep fundraising and raising awareness about glioblastoma.
