Tom Parker’s widow Kelsey Parker explains why she’s taken her wedding ring off
It’s been almost two years since the death of The Wanted star Tom Parker after he was diagnosed with a brain tumour. His wife - Kelsey Parker joined Woman’s Hour presenter Anita Rani to discuss processing grief and why she’s decided to take her wedding rings off.
She shared how they first met when she was 19, how she supported him through his cancer treatment, and how she is now coping with their two young children.
Kelsey also spoke about being trolled online for sharing details about a new relationship she was in – and how she feels there are double standards for widowed men and women when they try to move forward.
