LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kelsey Parker has opened up on the heartbreaking final conversation she had with her late husband, Tom Parker, while also addressing the online criticism she has faced for moving on.

Three years after Tom’s death in March 2022 from brain cancer at the age of 33, Kelsey continues to navigate life with their two children, Aurelia, five, and Bodhi, four.

Tom Parker said 'I'm knackered' in his final moments 

Now expecting her third child with her partner Will Lindsay, 27, a tree surgeon, Kelsey Parker spoke on Paul C Brunson's 'We Need To Talk' podcast about Tom’s last moments and the backlash she has received.

Kelsey shared that Tom had lost much of his voice on the day he died but was still able to speak one last time.

"We spoke about the kids, and I just said to him as well at that point like, 'You can go, really, I know you're holding on for me, but you can go, I know you've had enough,'" Kelsey said, according to Daily Mail.

She recalled how much he had endured, saying, "And he had had enough, he'd fought so hard, and I knew at that point he's like, 'I've had enough girls, I'm knackered.'"

Reflecting on his career, she shared, "He'd just been on tour, and I think with Tom, he loved that he was the pop star and that about him."

"I feel like he'd lost himself with it all as well, which was so sad, and I don't think he could live in this lifetime with what he'd become," Kelsey added.

Kelsey Parker revealed the harsh online criticism she has faced since moving on after Tom Parker's death, especially following the announcement of her pregnancy with Will Lindsay.

"The comments are horrendous. It has just been awful. I am a person that attracts love, that's why I am the way I am. These trolls are sick," Kelsey said.

Kelsey was also criticized for sharing that her daughter liked the name Parker for the new baby.

Hitting back at trolls, she said it was her children who wanted that name. "Aurelia just wants us to all have the same surname," she said. 

Recalling her devotion to Tom, she shared, "I did everything for Tom, I tied his shoelaces, I carried him to the toilet when he couldn't even stand up."

"If you had been on my journey with me, then you would not begrudge me having a bit of happiness. I deserve happiness and joy," she noted.

She added, "You are going to have the negatives with anything, but it has got nothing to do with anyone else really."

Tom Parker’s mother supported Kelsey Parker instantly after pregnancy as she always wanted four children

Kelsey Parker revealed that Tom Parker's mother gave her blessing to move on right away.

"Tom and I spoke about having more kids because I wanted four," Kelsey said.

She also shared how she had hoped for Tom to preserve the possibility of more children together.

"When he was first diagnosed, I wanted him to go and freeze his sperm, but he wouldn't. I really wanted him to because I really believed he was going to get better," she said.

In December, Kelsey expressed gratitude for finding love again. "After the storm, I've found someone who loves every piece of me and reminds me what it feels like to be alive again," she wrote.

She added, "My first Christmas with love back in my life, and I couldn't be more grateful."
