Kelsey Parker pens heartbreaking letter to her 'angel' baby after tragically losing third child
Kelsey Parker paid tribute to her late baby after tragically losing her third child. The podcaster, 34, suffered heartbreak in June after her son Phoenix - her first child with boyfriend Will Lindsay - was 'born sleeping.' After an incredibly stressful and challenging month for the family, Kelsey, Will and her children with late husband Tom Parker - Aurelia, six, and Bodhi, four - headed on a much-needed family holiday. On Sunday, Kelsey shared a video of herself on the beach during the trip alongside a heartbreaking letter to Phoenix. The podcast host penned: 'A Letter to My Angel. It's hard to find the words. 'There is no preparing for this kind of heartbreak. I had dreams for you, your first giggle, your first steps, the way you would cling to me when the world felt too big.' Kelsey continued: 'All those moments I imagined are now part of a different kind of story — one I never thought I'd have to write to you. 'But this isn't just about pain, it is about the quiet but powerful love you brought into this world. 'About how you changed me — made me softer, more grounded, and somehow even more grateful. 'Grief and gratitude can exist together. I grieve what was lost, but I am so thankful I had the chance to carry you for 9 months and love you unconditionally, I told you every day I loved you. 'You will always be mine. My son. My light. My why. 'I share this not because I have answers, but because silence can be lonely. 'And if you are walking through a similar kind of grief, please know you're not alone. There's a quiet sisterhood in this heartbreak, and I feel you deeply. 'For now, I'm learning to live with the ache, to breathe through the waves, and to find little pockets of peace in the middle of the storm. 'And I know that even though I can't hold you in my arms, I carry you in my heart, always.' Kelsey confirmed the loss of her unborn third child, a son she had planned to name Phoenix, one week before his planned due date. Breaking the news in a poem, she announced the news on Instagram in June. She penned: 'The world grew quiet as you arrived, So loved, so longed for, yet not alive. Our precious boy, our angel light, Born with wings, took silent flight'. 'We named you Phoenix, brave and bright. A soul of love, of warmth and light Though we never heard you cry, You'll live in hearts that won't ask why. 'No breath you drew, no eyes to see, Still, you mean everything to me. You'll journey with us, softly near, in every sigh, in every tear. Taking to her Instagram stories: she added: 'Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heartfelt wishes, I wanted to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share. '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. 'I love you all and thank you for your understanding and space. Love always, Kelsey, Will, and the Parker Family'. Kelsey met tree surgeon Will on a night out last year, with the couple announcing their relationship in September. It followed on from Kelsey tragically losing husband Tom in 2022, after an 18-month battle with a deadly and aggressive form of brain cancer.
