And even in that heartbreaking moment she was thinking of others having got a mutual pal to call me and delicately break the
news
to me ahead of time so I wasn't blindsided by reading it online.
I'm left questioning how much heart ache can one person go through?

In an era where we are always being told to 'be kind' there is often little shown for her. Kelsey previously had to hit back at
When she announced the news of the pregnancy alongside the well wishers there were plenty judging her for moving on too fast.
One commented: 'I'm sorry but it can't just be me who thinks Kelsey, Tom Parker's widowed wife, is moving on way too fast.
