Tom Parker 's wife Kelsey Hardwick shared a message on strength as her husband battles brain cancer.

The Wanted singer was diagnosed with glioblastoma and recently returned back to the UK following almost a month's worth of treatment at a specialist clinic.

After returning from Spain, he managed to join his fellow bandmates on stage on their UK tour.

And now, his wife Kelsey has taken to her Instagram Stories to share a quote about not having 'a choice'.

The mum-of-two shared: "Behind every strong person is a story that gave them no choice."

Kelsey and Tom have been together for 10 years and have two children, daughter Aurelia, two, and son Bodhi, one.

Tom was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in 2020, but has continued to fight as he remains determined to 'stay positive'.

Meanwhile, Kelsey's defiant messages comes after Tom joined his fellow bandmate as they returned to London's O2 Arena.

Having to pull out of the first leg of the tour, Tom made his debut in Bournemouth before rocking the stage in London last night.

Tom was surrounded by pals Jay McGuinness, Nathan Sykes, Siva Kaneswaran and Max George.

He performed while sitting on a throne fit for a king.

Giddy with the excitement of it all, Max, 33, took to Instagram filming the huge arena before the band went on stage, telling his followers it was the "big one".

The gig went down a storm with fans, who loved seeing the noughties pin-ups back in action with their greatest hits.

As they wound down backstage after their epic performance, Max told fans: "We've just done the London 02 again, it was awesome!"

Tom, who was wearing a big winter coat and shades, replied: "Yes brother".

Max continued: "It was so good. Guys, thanks for all the love. We shall see you... when are we doing it again?"

Tom said he had "no idea" to which Max laughed and said: "I don't either, see you soon."

While Tom was having his treatment in Spain, he updated fans about his health and how he was feeling.

"It was only meant to last 20 days but due to a couple of logistical changes with tests and results it won’t be complete until the end of the week now which has delayed our journey home," he said previously about missing a couple of shows.
