Tom Parker's widow beams as she holds growing baby bump on family day out
TOM Parker's widow Kelsey beamed as she held her growing baby bump on a family day out.
Kelsey, 34, looked gorgeous while attending the UK Special Screening of Lilo & Stitch at London 's Odeon Luxe Leicester Square.
The actress wore a striped cream-and-brown trouser and jacket co-ord, completing her look with tan sandals and a chain necklace.
Flashing a grin, she was joined by her daughter Aurelia, four, and son Bodhi, four, who she shared with the late Wanted singer.
Kelsey was married to Tom, who tragically passed away in 2022 at just 33 years old after a courageous battle with a rare brain tumour, glioblastoma.
Tom captured the hearts of fans as one-fifth of chart-topping boyband The Wanted, known for hits like Glad You Came and All Time Low.
Even while undergoing treatment, he continued to perform, famously taking to the stage with the band in emotional final performances during their reunion tour.
Since his death, Kelsey has worked tirelessly to honour his legacy.
She has organised an annual charity football match in his name to raise funds and awareness for brain cancer research - a cause that now means everything to her.
Now Kelsey's expecting her first baby with boyfriend Will Lindsay.
She has since found happiness again with new partner Will, but says she'll always carry Tom close to her heart.
Kelsey recently gave a family update as she revealed that Will has stepped in to do things her late husband couldn't for their kids.

The podcast host sat spoke on an episode of Mum's The Word.
Kelsey told listeners: "Tom died when he [Bhodi] was 18 months, I gave him everything. I have over given, Bridget Jones talks about it, when it's just you, I was mum and dad. I've given so much of me, now they just expect 'me, me, me at 3 o'clock in the morning.
"I'm so happy that Will is there and Will has taken, I don't want to say the role of dad … role model.
"So he now backs me, I've never had that because Tom was too ill, he couldn't really pick Bodhi up, so now I've go Will who backs me... Bodhi is like, 'hang on a second'.
"He absolutely adores Will and he listens to him, he needed the male role model."

Dani Dyer parties into the early hours after Bridgerton themed wedding in a racy lace mini as father of the bride Danny kicks off the reception with rude West Ham anthem
Love Island star Dani Dyer married West Ham ace Jarrod Bowen on Saturday in a lavish stately home ceremony surrounded by their celeb pals. And after the Bridgeton themed ceremony, it was time for the couple to let their hair down at a raucous reception. The bride spent Sunday reposting stunning social media snaps from her friends and family who gathered at the luxury five-star Langley Hotel in Buckinghamshire for the big day. After wowing in a £10,000 designer gown by Suzanne Neville for the ceremony, Dani changed into a stunning lace mini dress with new photos showing the beaming bride dancing late into the night. The fun was kicked off by father of the bride Danny Dyer who led a wedding breakfast chant of the rude West Ham anthem, 'Bowen's on fire and he's sh***ing Dani Dyer,' to the 1997 hit Freed from Desire. TOWIE star Georgia Kousoulou shared photos on Instagram as she shared drinks and the dancefloor with Dani. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Dani looked incredible in her second dress, whilst Georgia wowed in a custom baby blue gown. Speaking on her joint podcast with her dad Danny Dyer, Dani revealed she was keeping her first wedding dress a surprise from her dad until the big day to honour a special tradition. 'Have you not seen that first look when the dad sees their daughter in their dress and that? Oh, it's lovely,' she shared. 'Yeah, your dad's not meant to see it – it's a moment for the dad as well!' The wedding took place at the five star Langley Hotel, which sits on the estate of the third Duke of Marlborough, in former royal hunting grounds. Since the nuptials, Dani has shared a slew of snaps and videos across her socials, including one sweet image of her children, son Santiago, four, who she shares with ex Sammy Kimmence, and twins Summer and Star, two, who she shares with Jarrod, glancing out the window, while their grandfather Danny Dyer watched on. Dani and Jarrod's two-year-old twin daughters were flower girls, with her son and brother Arty, 11, as page boys. Her sister Sunnie was one of six bridesmaids, who all wowed in matching one shoulder pink dresses. Sunnie, 18, also had a role during the ceremony as she read a poem from Sex and The City's wedding scene, which went: 'His hello was the end of her endings. Her laugh was their first step down the aisle. His hand would be hers to hold forever. 'His forever was as simple as her smile. He said she was what was missing. She said instantly she knew. She was a question to be answered. And his answer was 'I do'.' Dani has had a whirlwind few months, filled with two lavish hen parties and all the excitement of getting ready for her big day. Speaking to Heat magazine earlier this week, Dani said: 'I have finally done my table plans now. Until you are in there writing names out, making sure you have tables of 10, it's the most stressful experience ever - that's the only thing I've not enjoyed.' Dani also revealed she will take on a double-barrell surname after the wedding, becoming Dyer-Bowen. She said: 'I am going to keep the Dyer - I am going to do Dani Dyer-Bowen just because of my work. I feel like if I am Dani Bowen, it takes that thing away from me. We are double-barrelling it.'
