Kelsey's post comes just over a week after she announced the loss of her third child, a baby boy she was expecting with partner Will Lindsay. She shared in an Instagram post on June 22, that her first baby with Lindsay — whom the couple named Phoenix Parker-Lindsay — was "born sleeping."
"Phoenix Parker-Lindsay, you will forever be loved 🐦🔥🤍🕊️," Kelsey wrote in her Instagram caption, alongside a touching poem titled "For Phoenix, Born Sleeping, Forever Loved."
The mom of two later posted a note on her Instagram Stories, signed by herself, Lindsay and her family.
"Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heart-felt well wishes, I want to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share," she wrote. "But with the news being so raw, I would really like to ensure that we as a family are given space and time to process this devastating and earth-shattering news."
This past January, Kelsey confirmed to The Mirror that she was pregnant and expecting her first baby with Lindsay. She also told the outlet that she and Tom had wanted to grow their family before his brain cancer diagnosis.
"Tom and I always said we wanted four — but life had other plans,' she said at the time. "So yes, this is amazing but also bittersweet. The joys of finding out I'm pregnant and moving forward with my life, while thinking, 'My life could have been so different.' I've felt every emotion under the sun.'
'I'm still getting my head around it, but I'm so excited,' she said of the pregnancy at the time. 'And I know I'm putting myself out there, telling people. I just want everyone to be as happy as I am."
Kelsey also shared with the outlet that she had told her kids the news, revealing that Aurelia wanted the baby "to be called Parker if it's a boy."
