Tom Parker is making progress in his fight against a brain tumor.

The British singer, 32, a member of The Wanted, announced in October that he'd been diagnosed with a grade four brain tumor and said he was "undergoing treatment."

Good news came for the singer Thursday when he spoke with a medical professional after undergoing an MRI earlier in the week.

To share an update, the star posted a photo of himself smiling with his wife and children.

He then thanked Britain's National Health Service employees for their work both in helping him combat his ailment and "on the front line" of the coronavirus pandemic.
