Tom Parker, who was a member of the British boy band The Wanted, has died of brain cancer at the age of 33. The singer was diagnosed with a stage-four glioblastoma two years ago and “fought until the very end,” his wife Kelsey said in a post on Instagram on Wednesday. “Our hearts are broken, Tom was the centre of our world and we can't imagine life without his infectious smile and energetic presence,” she wrote.
