Kelsey Parker announces pregnancy with 'rainbow baby' a year after stillbirth

Kelsey Parker, the widow of late The Wanted singer Tom Parker, has announced she is pregnant with boyfriend Will Lindsay. The 36-year-old podcaster shared the news on Instagram on Sunday, a year after suffering a devastating stillbirth.

In a video clip, Parker and Lindsay are seen unveiling a sonogram, with her children Bodhi and Aurelia also appearing. The announcement comes after Parker gave birth to a stillborn baby boy, Phoenix, at 39 weeks last year.

“A year ago next month, we lost our beautiful baby boy Phoenix,” Parker wrote. “And somehow, through all the heartbreak, it feels like Tom and Phoenix have sent us another little gift from heaven, our little rainbow baby.”

Parker has previously spoken about the traumatic aftermath of her stillbirth, describing how she was treated like a criminal. She recalled police treating the scene as a crime scene and being made to sit in a maternity ward with a police officer outside.

The Metropolitan Police later apologised, acknowledging that referring to the address as a crime scene was inappropriate. A detective inspector has offered to meet the family alongside a child bereavement nurse.
