A year and a half ago we learned that Tom Parker of The Wanted was diagnosed with cancer. In October of last year he was told he had stage 4 glioblastoma.
Tom had recently been confined to a wheelchair and online his wife Kelsey thanked friends and fans for their support throughout his illness.
She wrote on Instagram, “Our hearts are broken, Tom was the center of our world and we can’t imagine life without his infectious smile and energetic presence.” They had two children, 2-year-old Aurelia and 1-year-old Bodhi.
He died, yesterday (March 30, 2022) with family by his side. He was 33 years old.
