TOM Parker was planning to enjoy a dream holiday in Mexico, just weeks before he died yesterday.
Katie Price’s ex Kieran Hayler has revealed that Tom contacted him recently to ask about the paradise destination.
Kieran, who was friends with The Wanted singer, took to instagram, where he shared a throwback snap of him with Tom in happier times.
The picture showed Tom looking cool in a black leather jacket with the collar turned up and a white t-shirt underneath, while Kieran wore a white bomber jacket with the American flag on the arm.
He put a broken heart emoji on the image, and wrote: “@tomparkerofficial only just messaging me a few weeks ago about Mexico and now your gone so sad.”
Kieran also reached out to Tom’s wife Kelsey, saying: “Oh Kelsey this is heartbreaking. @being_kelsey love to you and the family.”

Tom died yesterday surrounded by his loved ones, including his wife, children Aurelia, two, and Bodhi, one, and his The Wanted bandmates Max George, Nathan Sykes, Jay McGuinness and Siva Kaneswaran.
He was diagnosed with inoperable brain tumour glioblastoma in October 2020 and bravely fought the disease for 17 months.
The Sun revealed yesterday that Tom passed away listening to the Oasis song Live Forever as it summed up his fighting spirit and love of rock and roll.
It is understood that Tom deteriorated quickly after joining his band mates on their recent tour, but he was desperate to be on stage one last time.
In their final interview, Tom and Kelsey had revealed plans for two more children
Kelsey told OK! Magazine: “We are planning for more children – I’ve always wanted a big family and I think we’ll end up with four.
“There’s only a 16-month age gap between our two children and it’s definitely been a lot, even without taking into account our circumstances, so I won’t be having children that close in age again – doing that once was enough.”
Kelsey released a statement yesterday announcing her husband’s tragic death.
She wrote: “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.”
