Kelsey Parker shared a kiss on the beach with her boyfriend Will Lindsay this week, during a family holiday to Whitstable.
The mother of two, 34, and her new partner, 27, who is a tree surgeon from Kent, enjoyed a romantic stroll across the beach with her children Amelia, five, and Bodhi, three.
Walking hand-in-hand the couple laughed together as they lifted Bodhi in the air and swung him while Amelia played.
Kelsey, who dressed in a casual hoodie and comfortable trousers, looked happier than ever.
Kelsey became a widow in March 2022 when her husband Tom – best known as a member of The Wanted – died after battle with brain cancer aged just 33.

Two years later she has revealed she is in a new relationship with her tree-surgeon partner, who she met while she was fundraising in honour of her late husband.
Earlier this week, Kelsey took to Instagram to share a snap of her new partner, and simply captioned the post with a heart emoji.
Just days before announcing her new romance, Kelsey revealed to The Sun that she finally felt lifted out of the ‘fog’ of grief and is now in a ‘better place’.
A source told the publication: ‘Will and Kelsey really hit if off earlier this year and he has been incredibly supportive of her.’
‘He helped her at a recent charity football match for Tom Parker and has attended other events.
‘She hasn’t been shy about their romance and they pair looked very loved up at a gala last week.’
Kelsey said that she feels in a much better place than in the year following Tom’s tragic death.
‘I’m in a better place than I was. I think I just jumped straight back into work, because ultimately, I was thinking ‘S***, I need to provide for the kids’,’ she said.

‘Now I feel lighter and I feel like I can see more clearly,’ she added. ‘I think I was having an out of body experience.’
The last Tom Parker Charity Football March took place on June 16, Father’s Day. It is not known if that’s when the pair met.
Will suffered his own heartbreak in 2017 when his father David died aged just 50.
MailOnline has contacted Kelsey’s representatives for comment.
Last year, Kelsey said that she knew her late husband Tom would ‘send the right man for her,’ weeks before she revealed her new romance.
In an interview with OK! Magazine, she said: ‘When it’s meant to be, it’ll be, and that person will be sent by Tom, I reckon. He’s picking them for me.’
Detailing her thoughts on her now-ex Boggans, who she dated following Parker’s death, she added: ‘I think he sent Sean for a reason. Sean was what I needed at the time and he was wonderful.
‘I’ll never say a bad word about him. But, right now, I need to focus on work and providing for my children.’
Over the weekend, Kelsey took to Instagram to share a snap of herself cosying up to her new partner. She was in great spirits as the pair embraced and Kelsey simply captioned the post with a heart emoji.
Kelsey did not share any specific details about her new man, but she received several supportive messages from her celebrity friends.
In November 2022, eight months after Parker’s death, she began dating electrician Sean Boggans – although they split last December.
The pair were introduced by friends at a wedding in London’s Greenwich last October, but split as the first anniversary of Parker’s death approached.
‘Kelsey and Sean split up around the anniversary of Tom’s death – her head was all over the place around that time and she had a wobble, but Sean still really liked her and pursued her,’ a source told The Sun.
‘After a few weeks of talking they got back together – she couldn’t ignore her feelings for him. It’s been really hard for them but she wants to give it a shot.’

Sean spent time behind bars after fatally punching Shaun McDermott, 44, during a heated argument over a taxi outside the Havering Oak pub in Romford, Essex.
He was waiting for his then-girlfriend to collect him when an argument broke out with Shaun, who was knocked to the ground during the skirmish. CCTV footage later captured the electrician walking away from the scene.
Shaun was discovered by police laying on the pavement at about 1am with a brain haemorrhage. A postmortem found that he died as a result of head injuries, with Boggans handed a four-year sentence by a judge at the Old Bailey.
Despite finally finding happiness again, Kelsey was inundated with vile messages about not ‘grieving properly’ despite finding it hard to cope.
Kelsey hit back at trolls as she told The Daily Star: ‘When you’ve lost someone you love so much, it proves to you that you’ve only got one life.
‘Tom would want me to be happy. You’ve got one life, so you should live it. That’s what he’s taught us.
‘When it comes to dating again… what’s it got to do with anyone else? I think whatever makes you happy in life, you’ve got to do it.’
‘There is so much stigma on how you should grieve. People think you should wear black with a veil over my face and be a walking widow. But that’s not the case. I’m still young and I’ve got kids to look after.
‘There is no rule book for grief out there and I’m saying to people: don’t worry about how you’re grieving because there is no right or wrong way to do it.
‘You could be smiling one minute and then deep in emotion the next minute. There is no wrong or right way.’
She and Parker were together for around 13 years. They announced their engagement in 2016 and married in a romantic ceremony in Surrey in 2018.
Parker was diagnosed with stage 4 glioblastoma in October 2020, and was given just 12 months to live by doctors.
In September 2021, 11 months on from the diagnosis, Parker sang at the Stand Up 2 Cancer show at the Royal Albert Hall and even embarked on a Greatest Hits tour with his bandmates when the tumour was confirmed as ‘stable’ in November.
But a close family friend revealed today that Parker’s condition deteriorated rapidly once the tour came to an end, and he died in March 2022.
