Kelsey Parker and her partner Will Lindsay discuss their relationship
Kelsey Parker and her new partner Will Lindsay opened up about her ex-husband’s death in their first TV appearance together. The duo appeared on Lorraine, and hinted that they might have big plans for the future.
Kelsey, 34, was previously married to The Wanted star Tom Parker, who died in 2022 after being diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour. She and Tom share daughter Aurelia and son Bodhi, and Kelsey is currently pregnant with her first child with Will.
During their time on Lorraine, the duo was filmed as they walked around the garden and sat on a bench honouring Tom, while talking about host Lorraine Kelly’s March4March campaign, encouraging people to go out walking to drive awareness of mental health issues.
While sitting on Tom’s bench, Kelsey and Will – a tree surgeon she met by chance during a night out – teased their plans for the future as she opened up about moving on.
After Will shared that he definitely wanted to “spend more time” with Kelsey, the podcaster boldly joked back: “How much time? The rest of your life?”
Kelsey then commented of her choice to go all-in with Will: “I do feel like Tom sent you, like what else was I meant to do? And the kids obviously absolutely love you.”
Alongside teasing their future plans, Kelsey also used the interview as an opportunity to talk about trolls who’ve slammed her for moving on and becoming pregnant.
“It’s been three years, this is Tom’s three year anniversary of his death and it’s almost like people want me to feel guilty for moving on,” she said. Kelsey asked Will: “Does it stress you out that I get upset about trolls and people commenting on our relationship?”
“Not really, I just tell you not to look at them don’t I. There’s bound to be some people sending nice messages but block out the haters,” he responded.
Kelsey then revealed her internal conflict as she shared: “I’m always going to have guilt but what’s so hard is that Tom’s not here anymore, so what do people want me to do?”
Despite trolls raging against Kelsey’s new life, she revealed that those closest to her are full of support, with even Tom’s parents happy about her pregnancy.
Speaking about Tom’s mother, Kelsey shared: “Noreen said as long as you’re happy, we’re happy, and she’s so excited to have a new grandchild. They’re up north, so it’s hard for us to see each other, but every Sunday we FaceTime or whenever anything happens.”
During a recent episode of her Mum’s The Word podcast, which she co-hosts with Georgia Horsley, Kelsey also revealed that she and Will weren’t trying for a baby before finding out the exciting news.
“We weren’t really trying. I just think, what’s meant to be is meant to be. It happened and we’re really happy,” she told Danny Jones’ wife.
