Kelsey Parker says new boyfriend 'brought her back to life' after husband Tom's death

Kelsey Parker is overjoyed to be spending Christmas with her new beau, Will Lindsay, two years on from the tragic loss of her husband Tom Parker. The mother of two has expressed that her boyfriend has revived her spirits following the heartbreak of The Wanted star's passing in 2022 due to a brain tumour.

Initially hesitant about making her relationship with Will public earlier this year, Kelsey is now wholeheartedly welcoming the warmth and support for her newfound love. In a heartfelt Instagram post, the 34 year old widow shared a tender, albeit blurred, photo of her kissing Will, accompanied by her touching words.

Kelsey penned: "December... but this year with someone who loves every part of me and has brought me back to life after the storm I've been through." She also included an emotive caption with the image, telling her followers: "December hits differently this year... After the storm, I've found someone who loves every piece of me and reminds me what it feels like to be alive again. My first Christmas with love back in my life, and I couldn't be more grateful."

Kelsey opened up to OK! about her relationship with Will, expressing the initial nerves she felt about going public. At the Pride of Britain Awards in October, Kelsey shared: "I'm very happy. Everyone has been so supportive which has been lovely and wonderful - I was so scared to share it because, you know, trolling is such a big thing. I was thinking, 'Am I going to get trolled? ' but the support and love has been absolutely incredible."

On her podcast Mum's The Word, co-hosted with Georgia Jones, Kelsey spoke fondly of Will's presence in their home: "He's used to us as a family now. He brings happiness into our house – a different sort of happiness. Obviously, when it was the three of us we were happy, but now he's bringing that something else in."

She also mentioned their recent family holiday, highlighting how Will has become an integral part of their lives.
