RIP Tom Parker from "The Wanted" only early 30's.

Had been diagnosed with Terminal Brain Cancer...

So bloody young

That's a shame. He came across as a really decent bloke as well as a fighter.

Not my genre of music, but I have heard of them, and 33 is far too young to die.

Sadly cancer doesn't care who it impacts

RIP Tom

Shocking way to go, and so young. He did a documentary last year I think it was about getting a fund raising concert going.
RIP.

RIP Tom Parker,a Bolton lad. Taken far too young.

Really sad news.

RIP, Tom Parker.

Horrible news. I’m sure I read not long ago that things had improved. He came across as a lovely young man. So very sad for his family. Another young life gone.

Such a cruel and brutal illness. Absolutely no age. Think he appeared briefly on stage with the rest of the group just a couple of weeks ago which must have taken so much strength to do considering the debilitating chemo. RIP.

Very, very sad, seemed a great bloke with a young family

Being the same each with young children as well it does scare me, as mentioned above it can get anybody, anytime.

Didn’t have a clue who he was but I’d like to echo everybody’s sentiments in that 33 is way too young & RIP.

A few years ago when Alistair Campbell had handbags with him at a soccer 6 tournament at the Turf. The lad ended up being stretchered off in the same game.

I'm so sad to hear this. RIP young fella.

My best mate had a similar diagnosis 6 months ago and then 2 weeks ago told (when he hoped for 2-3 years) 'you've got months'. He's completely thrown himself into living every moment he has. I'm going up to see him tomorrow to have a night of playing our most meaningful records and get as sloshed as he's allowed. Whilst it might be the last time we can do such a thing, we'll hopefully do a lot of laughing.

Sorry for mentioning all this - I don't mean to take away from the desperately sad passing of Tom Parker.....just such a cr@p disease.

Pointless Celebs just started ... Tom on it with Max from the Wanted ... family have sanctioned it as a tribute

Campbell is a bellend ...

I thought Poinless Celebrities was very poignant.
Not sure how long ago it was filmed. Tom and his bandmate won, and both their chosen charities were concerned with brain cancer.
RIP, Tom. I’m way too old to know your music, but you seem a good man.
