Following the tragic death of her husband Tom Parker last year, Kelsey Parker has confirmed she's dating a new man, Sean, who she says has been a "new lease of life" for her.<\/p>\n

Kelsey, 33, admitted she hadn't been expecting to meet anyone new following The Wanted star Tom's death in March 2022, but she formed a connection with Sean after meeting at a friend's wedding in Greece last year. <\/p>\n

The pair split five months later but have since rekindled their romance after bumping into each other at another mutual pal's nuptials in south London. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe brings me so much joy and laughter. Sean was a real new lease of life for me," mum-of-two Kelsey gushed. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She admitted her new romance "came as a shock" but praised Sean and branded him "incredible" in a new interview with the Mirror. <\/p>\n

\u201cI wasn\u2019t looking for anything when we met and it came as a shock to me but we just genuinely got on and the relationship progressed. He\u2019s such a good guy and it\u2019s quite hard for him to walk into this situation, not a lot of men could do that and feel comfortable with it," Kelsey said. <\/p>\n

Kelsey tragically lost her Wanted singer husband Tom Parker in March 2022 following a two-year battle against a rare type of brain tumour. Tom was first diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2020, where he was told that it was inoperable. Despite chemotherapy and 30 radiotherapy sessions, Tom died from glioblastoma cancer with Kelsey at his side last year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kelsey and Tom married in 2018 and shared children Aurelia, three, and Bodhi, two. <\/p>\n

Speaking about her boyfriend's bond with her two young children, Kelsey added: \u201cWe could sit there and talk about Tom, and Sean\u2019s been incredible. My friends and family have been amazing and I couldn\u2019t have done this without them but there\u2019s only so many times you can go, \u2018Can you come over. I\u2019m feeling really lonely.\u2019 <\/span><\/p>\n

"Sean will never replace Tom because Tom is irreplaceable to me but it\u2019s having that person to talk to and share your day with."<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She went on say they're "taking things slow" and "enjoying each other's company" before sweetly saying Sean brings her "so much joy and laughter". <\/span><\/p>\n

Kelsey's update comes ahead of the release of her new autobiography, Kelsey Parker: With And Without You, which will see her open up about her time with Tom and his tragic death. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
