Kelsey Parker is experiencing a devastating loss.
6 months following the announcement of her pregnancy with Will Lindsay, the widow of Tom Parker from The Wanted band, who passed away due to brain cancer in 2022, revealed that she and Will had unfortunately lost their baby boy, Phoenix Parker-Lindsay.
On Instagram, posted on June 22nd, the podcast host shared a heartfelt poem, titled: “Forever Loved – Phoenix Parker-Lindsay”, which he dedicated to Aurelia (age 5) and Bodhi (age 4), who were accompanied by Tom.
As you gracefully entered the world, a hush fell over everything; adored, anticipated, yet unresponsive. Our cherished child, our beacon of hope, born with wings, ascending silently into the heavens. We called you Phoenix, bold and luminous, a spirit of love, warmth, and radiance. Though we never heard your voice, you’ll continue to dwell in hearts that will never question why.
It continued, “You took no breath, had no sight, Yet, you mean the world to me. You’ll travel alongside us, gently present, In every sigh, in every tear.
Instead of anticipating the reactions from her social media followers based on her initial expectations, the 34-year-old found herself pleasantly surprised by their responses to the news.
Before an outpouring of kind messages and sincere well-wishes arrives in my Instagram Stories, I feel it’s important to express that I am deeply grateful for everything you will say and share. However, as the news is still so fresh, I would greatly appreciate if we could all allow our family some privacy and room to grieve over this heartbreaking and life-altering news.
Kelsey remarked, “I adore each one of you, and I’m grateful for your patience and tolerance. With affection, Kelsey, Will, and the Parkers.
In January, the host of the “Mum’s The Word” podcast initially revealed that she was expecting a child, which was four months following their relationship with Will becoming public on Instagram.
Kelsey shared with The Mirror that despite our plans to have four children, life took us in another direction. So, this news is both thrilling and tinged with sadness. The excitement of discovering I’m pregnant and embarking on a new chapter, while contemplating the path my life might have taken if things were different. I’ve experienced a range of emotions that span the entire spectrum.
She mentioned, “I believe life is meant to unfold as it should. I’m simply seeking happiness. My kids have been my anchors during tough times, and now, I feel as if I’ve received another blessing. If I focused on all the past hardships, I wouldn’t be here today. Tom was my other half. His passing still angers me, but I can’t continue living in sorrow. Tom would not want that for me.
