Ed Sheeran Paid For Tom Parker’s Brain Cancer Treatment
Ed Sheeran paid for Tom Parker’s medical treatment during his battle with brain cancer.
We know that now thanks to the forthcoming memoir by Parker called “Hope: My Inspirational Life.”
According to an excerpt seen by The Sun:
“I’ve never publicly said this before (and he’ll probably be mad that I’m doing it now) but Ed is a very special man — he even helped out with my medical bills when I was seeking other treatment options and having private immunotherapy.” “He didn’t need to do any of that, but my wife Kelsey and I are so grateful to him for his support, it meant the world.”
They struck up a friendship when Sheeran joined The Wanted on tour over a decade ago.
Parker died at age 33 in March after being diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor in October 2020.
