Simon Cowell Grants A Young Girl's Final Wish Who Died Days After

5-year-old Bethany Fenton's final wish before she lost her battle with a brain tumor was fulfilled by Simon Cowell.

Her wish? To sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' to the popular judge.

Bethany sang the song to Simon when she visited the studio of 'Britain's Got Talent' in North London ahead of Saturday's Finale. The delighted young girl told UK's Daily Mail,

"I loved them all, especially Kieran (a semi-finalist in BGT) , who asked for my wristband to give us both luck ... Simon let me sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' to him. He's so nice and I love him."

Unfortunately, the young girl passed away yesterday afternoon in the arms of her mother and her father at Helen House Hospice in Oxford after a sudden deterioration in her condition at home. Last year, Bethany was diagnosed with a grade three to four anaplastic astrocytomabrain tumor. And last year, a second MRI scan revealed that the tumor had grown and began affecting her seriously. The youngster fought the illness for over a year and had been through radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

After her death, Cowell's spokesman Max Clifford said,

" He is really upset, he said what a beautiful little girl she was. He is just so sad, and sad for the whole family. She was a very special little girl and Simon was so touched when she sang for him. He was happy that he was able to do a special something on Saturday night to give her a few precious moments but it is so sad and his heart goes out to Bethany's mum and dad and he is thinking of them."

A spokesman from the family said that,

"Bethany was doing fine on Sunday after singing for Cowell and was absolutely over the moon with what happened."Adding, "Her dad said that she had done what she always wanted to do, meet Simon Cowell and sing to him. She had achieved her big ambition and was now ready to depart this earth."
