Kelsey Parker opens up on talking to her children about their dad Tom's tragic death 💔
Kelsey Parker said telling her two young children their father was dead is one of the “hardest conversations” she’s ever faced.
“But it had to be that black and white. Daddy’s not gone to sleep, because then they might be scared to sleep. I had to use the right wording, and it was quite black and white. It’s really raw, and it’s really horrible to say, but you know, we are a year down the line and she understands more now.”View gallery She acknowledged this is a conversation that’s going to continue throughout their lives, but it will change as the children get older.
“Because my mum’s always been straight with me. There’s never been any blurred lines, and I’ve really always respected my mum for that. So, my mum just said, ‘Be honest with them’. That’s all I can do, is be honest.” The series premiered on the MTV YouTube channel this week, starting with Parker’s interview. Three further weekly episodes – featuring Brenda Edwards, Roman Kemp and Jordan Stephens – will follow.
The MTV FACES interview also sees Cain and Parker discuss dealing with the reactions of other people when going through grief and how it can be hard knowing what to say.
