It is the case that broke the hearts of a nation. After almost four months in a coma and a legal battle between his parents and doctors, Archie Battersbee has died.
The 12-year-old's heartbroken mother Hollie Dance struggled to fight back the tears as she announced the tragic news of his death outside the Royal London Hospital this afternoon. Since finding her son unconscious back in April, she has lived every parent's worst nightmare.
Jus months ago, Archie was an active boy who loved martial arts and gymnastics. But that all changed when an incident at his home in Southend, Essex, left him with a catastrophic brain injury.
