KELSEY Parker has penned an emotional tribute to late husband Tom on the second anniversary of his death.

Tom, who shot to fame with The Wanted, died at the age of 33 after being diagnosed with an aggressive brain cancer - leaving behind sweetheart Kelsey and their two children, Aurelia and Bodhi.

In a new Instagram Reel shared to an acoustic cover version of Oasis's Champagne Supernova, Kelsey shared never-before seen pics and clips from their life together.

This include adorable moments of Tom playing with the kids, their wedding day, through to the simple things like driving together in a car.

In the caption was an open letter to Tom, where Kelsey reflected on the things he had missed out on, and the legacy he left behind.

"Can’t believe it’s been two years. Feels like only yesterday that you left us," she wrote. "But I feel like I’ve been on my own for a long time now and so much has changed since you were here.

"I know you’d be so proud of everything we’ve achieved. The house looking as we wanted it, Rae in school and thriving, Bodhi won’t take his football kits off, K2K going from strength to strength and the online community I’m growing.

"I know you’d be so proud of me, I’m so proud of me, but I wish more than anything you were here to tell me yourself. For you to wrap your arms around me and share in the excitement of every milestone reached."

"They say the second year is the hardest and everyone keeps telling me if I can survive that I can survive anything," she continued. "But I’m somehow feeling a weaker than I have before.

"Rae and Bodhi asking more questions and I just need you here to help me answer them. Two whole years and it’s getting harder not easier."

"I miss you more than ever." she heartbreakingly concluded. "Celebrating you and all we had today and forever.

"Remember I love you one more than you can ever say My Tommy Boy Forever."

The couple had been married for four years at the time of his death, getting married in 2018 after getting engaged two years prior.

However, they were young sweethearts - first meeting in 2009 when Tom was 21 and Kelsey was only 19.
