[MikeHunt]

This is so sad. He’s was so young. It was nice that he was able to reunite the band before his passing and give the fans a last go around.

This is so heartbreaking. I'm glad he was able to perform with the rest of his bandmates one last time before his death.

Thoughts to his family, friends, and The Wanted bandmates.

Such sad news :(

He missed a couple of tour dates a few weeks ago and even came on stage on a wheelchair to perform on the dates he did!

Way too young.

So awful :( I saw them when they opened for the Femme Fatale tour and they were great.

This is füçked up!!! I feel like 2022 is really tryna prove to 2020 who the boss is!

[Stefani]

This is so sad, but not surprising given that we'd known for a while that he had cancer. At least his friends and family had some forewarning about it. Rest in peace.

Rest in piece and rest in power Tom

I was a big TW fan. Even if the group disbanded for a while, i followed them periodically. When the last group reunited, he couldn't even stand. But I didn't expect this much. I'm so sorry guys. Very, very much. Words are not enough to express my unhappiness.

The video of him performing on stage for the last time was absolutely heartbreaking. Don’t watch it if you don’t want to be emotionally destroyed
