Kelsey Parker makes candid pregnancy admission as she details ‘fear of missing out’
Kelsey Parker has candidly admitted she “hates being pregnant” as she prepares to welcome her third child with new partner Will Lindsay.
The 34-year-old podcast host, who is already mum to Aurelia, five, and Bodhi, four, with her late husband Tom Parker, revealed she struggles with missing out on social activities during pregnancy.
“I hate being pregnant. I feel the FOMO of not being able to drink or party with everyone,” she told Closer Magazine.
The admission comes as Kelsey approaches the three-year anniversary of The Wanted star Tom’s death from brain cancer in March 2022.

Kelsey, who previously appeared in a Harry Potter film, described her pregnancy as not always “plain sailing”.
Despite being overjoyed about welcoming a new addition to her family, she admitted to struggling with the limitations pregnancy brings.
Her third pregnancy, which she has described as a “happy accident”, has brought mixed emotions.
“I feel like I never go through life and it’s just plain sailing,” she told Closer.”
“I want something nice. I’m just asking the universe, please, come on – give me something nice!”
Kelsey revealed she suffered from severe morning sickness during her first trimester, making the experience particularly challenging.
The 34-year-old met tree surgeon Will Lindsay during a night out last year, with the couple going public with their relationship in September.
They are expecting their baby in June, with Kelsey now in the later stages of her pregnancy. The couple have revealed they don’t know the sex of their baby and are currently “undecided” about whether they want to find out – with the results waiting for them in an email.
Kelsey has faced significant backlash online since announcing her new relationship and pregnancy, with trolls criticising her for moving on after Tom’s death.
The couple recently addressed this criticism during their first joint TV appearance on ITV’s Lorraine.
“It has 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,” Kelsey explained.
During the ITV interview, Kelsey asked Will: “Does it stress you out that I get upset about trolls and people commenting on our relationship?”
Will responded supportively: “Not really, I just tell you not to look at them don’t I. There’s bound to be some people sending nice messages but block out the haters.”
Kelsey further explained her emotional struggle: “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.”
Kelsey has shared that Tom’s family have been supportive of her new relationship and pregnancy.
“Tom’s mum Noreen gave me her blessing instantly. She can’t wait to have another grandchild,” Kelsey revealed.
She added that Noreen told her: “As long as you’re happy, Kels, whatever you do, we will always support you and be happy for you.”
