In a life-changing moment, the nine-year-old was also given one of Swift’s trademark black fedora hats during the performance of her song, 22, and given a hug.

The encounter was shared across the world by fans on social media.

But in a heartbreaking twist after Scarlett’s brush with fame, her parents have revealed she may only have “weeks rather than months” left.

In a statement on Instagram, her father Paul said his “beautiful” child had not been doing well recently.
