She said the 33-year-old’s death was ‘tragically young’

He leaves behind his children Aurelia, two, and Bodhi, one, as well as his wife Kelsey, 32.

Speaking on the breakfast show this morning, Susanna spoke of her memories about meeting Tom after he reunited with The Wanted amid his illness.

“It was very notable how much The Wanted cared for him behind the scenes,” said Susanna.

“Even though he still had lots of energy and was smiling and laughing they really had that arm around him the whole time.

“We really are so sad about Tom. Tragically young, 33 years old, incredibly cruel what has happened to him.

“We send our love to the band, to the team around them and especially to Kelsey and the children.”

Sharing the devastating news about her husband last night, Kelsey told The Celeb Report: “It is with the heaviest of hearts that we confirm Tom passed away peacefully earlier today with all of his family by his side. 

“Our hearts are broken.

“Tom was the centre of our world and we can’t imagine life without his infectious smile and energetic presence.

“We are truly thankful for the outpouring of love and support and ask that we all unite to ensure Tom’s light continues to shine for his beautiful children.

“Thank you to everyone who has supported in his care throughout. He fought until the very end.”
