Death of Tom and loss of Phoenix
Kelsey has suffered huge heartbreaking losses in recent years.
Husband Tom Parker died from brain cancer back in March 2022, with Kelsey widowed and his two young children left behind.
She picked up the pieces, though, and met new love Will Lindsay.
Kelsey and Will then announced that they were expecting their first baby together. However, days before his due date, son Phoenix was born sleeping.
Now, Kelsey has revealed that she feels her ‘rainbow baby’ is a gift from her lost loved ones in heaven.
