‘Though our little one cannot come back, he was with us for nine beautiful months. He lived in us, he grew with us, and he will always be a part of us. He was, and forever will be, our Phoenix.’

Kelsey is also mother to Aurelia, five, and Bodhi, four, with her late husband Tom.  

In June, Kelsey took to Instagram to share her heartbreaking news about her third child who died one week before his planned due date.

Breaking the news in a poem, she wrote: ‘The world grew quiet as you arrived, So loved, so longed for, yet not alive. Our precious boy, our angel light, Born with wings, took silent flight’.

‘We named you Phoenix, brave and bright. A soul of love, of warmth and light Though we never heard you cry, You’ll live in hearts that won’t ask why.

‘No breath you drew, no eyes to see, Still, you mean everything to me. You’ll journey with us, softly near, in every sigh, in every tear.

Taking to her Instagram stories: she added: ‘Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heartfelt wishes, I wanted to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share.

‘But with the news being so raw, I would really like to ensure that we as a family are given space and time to process this devastating and earth-shattering news.

‘I love you all and thank you for your understanding and space. Love always, Kelsey, Will, and the Parker Family’.

Kelsey was left devastated after husband Tom lost his battle with brain cancer, but found love again last year, meeting Kent tree surgeon Will on a night out and announced their romance in September.

The podcaster later admitted to being targeted by online trolls for moving on with her new partner.

Speaking on ITV’s Lorraine, in their first joint interview together in March, she explained: ‘It’s been three years, this is Tom’s three year anniversary of his death and it’s almost like people want me to feel guilty for moving on.’

She added: ‘I’m always going to have guilt but what’s so hard is that Tom’s not here anymore so what do people want me to do?’,

‘Our house was full of so much sadness but now it’s full of happiness, the kids deserve that more than anything.

‘They’ve been through so much, I feel like we are taking the steps forward to heal but I just want other women to feel like it’s OK to move on, it’s not taking anything away from the love I had for Tom.’
