Kelsey, the widow of Tom Parker, a former member of the British boy band The Wanted, is gradually but definitely letting the world see her kids’ funny and colorful side. Kelsey Parker has been giving sneak peeks of her children’s podcast, which has been taken over by her daughter Aurelia and son Bodhi. In the video clip that comes with the post, the two kids are already overflowing with the only energy that kids can produce while they are heard talking about the great news. Yet, the moment that delighted the audience was a very simple and honest reference. While talking about the songs, one of them mentions a song by ‘my dad,’ and the other one immediately interjects to point out that, ‘That’s our daddy.’
Kelsey, in her post, indicated the authenticity of the project by illuminating its involvement. ‘It is them who generate the content and the talks are pure magic, chaos, and laughter all in one,’ she declared. She also linked a giveaway to the episode, hoping for likes, comments, and shares to stimulate this. Yet, it was the children’s unsolicited mention of their father that ended up being the center of attention among all the viewers.
The response was not only swift but also very emotionally charged. The fans noticed the sly and spiritual presence of Tom Parker in his kids right away and one of them wrote, ‘They are so confident!! Tom would be so proud to smile at them 😍 you are doing great, Kelsey ❤️.’ This emotion was one time after another, and the resemblance in looks was also noted. Another user commented, ‘Bodhi is so much like Tom, made me smile,’ a thought that was seconded by another who said, ‘I think so!! Bodhi is literally Tom’s double!!’
The poignant mention ‘our daddy’ was the little aspect that really spoke. One user simply said, ‘“That’s our daddy”! Admit it already! 🥹❤️😍,’ and summed up the emotional effect that the moment had on people. The children’s strength and happiness were seen as a living monument to their father. ‘Oh Tom I’m sure is smiling down at his babies. They are sweet and confident ❤️,’ someone said. Another person added, ‘Dad would be the one to take over that pod or to burst out laughing with his unique laugh. Good job Aurelia and Bodhi.’
Most of the comments revolved around pride—the presumed pride of Tom in his children and the pride of Kelsey in their upbringing. ‘Youve made my morning. so funny and lovely. Great job you lovely duo ❤️❤️,’ one of the fans said. The project itself, a podcast by such little children that was conceived and executed like a child’s play, appeared to many as a manifestation of their unique spark. ‘Well, Kelsey, you’d better be ready because these two are going to be little stars!! Daddy will be super proud 🥰,’ another follower foretold.
Tom Parker, a member of The Wanted, was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor in 2020. He recorded a video of his battle with glioblastoma and died at 33 in March 2022. Kelsey Parker has always been candid about her grieving process and her commitment to raising their two children, often sharing tales that demonstrate how the family keeps the father’s memory alive since his death.

This recent post serves as a soft reminder of that reaction and the story continuing to unfold. It is not a deliberate tribute, but rather a spontaneous moment in the children’s whimsical play where their father is just naturally part of the conversation. The video gives a powerful, unvarnished view of how love and memory are still present in a family that has lost a loved one. For Kelsey Parker and her followers, it is a double reminder that although Tom is not with us anymore, his impact and his unmistakable spirit are still very much alive in the next generation. Her strength and resilience as a woman and mother are evident, even as she has shared her heartbreaking pregnancy loss and healing journey. The family’s bond is also highlighted during special times, like when she shared a festive family Christmas photo with a heartfelt holiday message.
