Kelsey Parker gave a befitting reply to a cruel troll who criticised her for remembering her late husband in the presence of her new partner on Wednesday.
Her, husband, The Wanted singer Tom Parker died at the age of 33 from an inoperable brain tumour on March 30, 2022.
She later found love again with her partner, Will Lindsay, and is now pregnant with their ‘rainbow baby.’
Kelsey and Will tragically suffered a stillbirth in June 2025, losing their son, Phoenix, at 39 weeks.
Despite moving forward with her life, Kelsey shared an emotional message on Instagram about missing Tom as she marked her 37th birthday.
Kelsey re-shared the user’s message that read: ‘Yes I am going to sound like a c*** but you need to stop thinking about your ex-husband who has passed away. You have moved on. You are in a new relationship. Think of how this new guy is feeling hearing how much you care about your ex-husband?
‘That is such a kick in the teeth to the new guy, forget about that, he is your future and this new baby, stop living in the past.’
In her reply, Kelsey wrote: ‘Tom wasn’t my ex-husband. He was my husband, and he died. There is a huge difference.
‘Loving someone who has died doesn’t stop because you’re in a new relationship. Grief isn’t something you ‘move on’ from or switch off. You learn to carry it alongside the life you continue to build.
‘Will understands that, just as he still loves and remembers his own dad who died when he was 21.
‘I would never expect him to stop talking about his dad, and he would never expect me to stop talking about Tom.
‘My past, my present and my future can all exist together. They’re not mutually exclusive.’
The couple shared two children together, Aurelia, six, and Bodhi, four.
