Kelsey Parker, the widow of singer Tom Parker, has shared the heartbreaking news that her newborn baby has passed away. Parker, a podcaster, actress, and entrepreneur, posted a moving poem on social media to announce the death of her baby, Phoenix.<\/p>\n
The poem, titled "Born Sleep, Loved Forever," was accompanied by a caption that read: "Phoenix Parker-Lindsay, loved forever." This announcement came just a week after Parker revealed on TikTok that she was 38 weeks pregnant. She has two children with her late husband, Tom Parker, who died in 2022, and is currently in a relationship with Will Lindsay.<\/p>\n
The poem began: "The world became quiet when it arrived, so loved, yet longing, but not for life." Parker’s words expressed the sadness and grief that she and her family are experiencing during this difficult time.<\/p>\n
In a separate message, Parker asked for space and time to process the devastating news. She said: "Before I get an influx of beautiful messages and warm wishes, I just want to say that I really appreciate everything you will say and share. But as the messages are so raw, I really want to make sure that as a family we have space and time to process these devastating and sunk messages." Parker ended her message by thanking her followers for their understanding and support.<\/p>\n
Parker is a co-host of The Mams The Word Podcast and runs a wellness retreat school in Kent. She has also written a book about her experiences with grief, titled "Without You," which was published in 2023. Her Instagram biography describes her profession as: "To be a mother, run a business and deal with grief."<\/p>\n
According to the NHS, stillbirth, which is defined as the birth of a baby after 24 weeks of pregnancy who is no longer alive, affects about one in every 250 births. This experience can be devastating for families, and it’s essential to provide them with support and understanding during this difficult time.<\/p>\n
If you or someone you know has been affected by stillbirth or any other issue related to pregnancy or grief, there are resources available to provide support and guidance. The BBC’s Action Line has details of advice and support services that can help individuals and families cope with these challenging experiences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
