The Wanted star Tom Parker has died at the age of 33 after being diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, the British boy band have announced.

The singer told fans in October 2020 that he had an inoperable tumour.

His wife Kelsey Hardwick wrote on Instagram: "Our hearts are broken." The pair had two young children together.

She added: "Tom was the centre of our world. We can't imagine life without his infectious smile and energetic presence."

Her post continued: "We are truly thankful for the outpouring of love and support and ask that we all unite to ensure Tom's light continues to shine for his beautiful children.

"Thank you to everyone who has supported in his care throughout, he fought until the very end. I'm forever proud of you."

I really didn't know anything about him until a few months ago.

Yet I saw him being interviewed and I thought what a really nice lad he was. And brave too.

So bloody sad he has passed away, and so young

Tragic news, seemed a nice genuine guy from what I have read.

Really sad. Not a band I knew a lot about but 33 is no age at all.

He seemed like a truly nice guy in the interviews I've seen and read.
