Tom Parker’s widow, Kelsey Parker, has disclosed her aspirations for children with her new beau, two years following the heartrending loss of The Wanted singer.

Kelsey recently shared insights into her blossoming romance with tree surgeon Will Lindsay, hinting that expanding their family “could be on the cards” for them.

Having had two children, Aurelia and Bodhi, with Tom, Kelsey was in a committed relationship with The Wanted star for nine years before their 2018 nuptials. Tom died in March 2022, leaving a void in their lives.

In a candid interview with OK! Magazine in 2024, Kelsey confessed she had reservations about going public with her new love interest but was met with “incredible” support, and the couple might soon welcome kids.

Speaking to the Sun’s Fabulous magazine, she revealed: “Will is not really bothered about getting married or anything like that. But he hasn’t got children so he would like kids. I do think that could be on the cards for us.”

She reminisced about her time with Tom, saying: “Tom and I spoke about having more kids because I wanted four.

“When he was first diagnosed, I wanted him to go and freeze his sperm, but he wouldn’t.

“I really wanted him to because I really believed he was going to get better.”

Tom’s diagnosis of stage 4 glioblastoma came in October 2020, with a prognosis of just 12 months. Following his death, Kelsey took to Instagram to share the sombre news, stating: “It is with the heaviest of hearts that we confirm Tom passed away peacefully earlier today with all of his family by his side.”

She shared that their “hearts are broken”, remembering her late husband as the “centre of our world” and confessing they “can’t imagine life without his infectious smile and energetic presence”.

Speaking about her new relationship in October 2024, Kelsey said she thought she would be trolled, adding that there is “no right time to do anything”, and you have to “just go with your heart and that’s it”.

In December, Kelsey said Will had brought her “back to life” after the “storm” she endured, adding that she felt “grateful” to be enjoying her first Christmas with love “back in my life”.
