Britain's Got Talent star Audrey Leybourne has sadly died at the age of 95, but she had one final message to share with fans.
The showbiz star, who auditioned for the talent show in 2018, died early Thursday morning after spending some time in hospital where she reflected on her life.
Rev Simon Grigg, the vicar of her local church, took to Facebook to confirm the tragic news and shared Audrey's moving message.
"She has a last message for you all. When she was in hospital two weeks ago, she said to me, 'If I pop off, tell everyone I don’t regret a thing. I’ve had a wonderful life'," he wrote alongside a smiling picture of the veteran performer.
Simon also said Audrey was a "remarkable person" who was "much loved" by the local community.
"It is with deep sadness that we report the death of our much loved friend Audrey Leybourne, who died early on Thursday morning.
"She was a remarkable person, a real 'trouper' of an actress (starting her career with Sir Donald Wolfit, no less) and a much loved member of St. Paul’s," he wrote.
The vicar finished his statement by saying: "Quite a lady. Quite a Christian.
"We will, of course, let everyone know when we have details of her funeral. May she rest in peace and rise in glory. Amen."
Audrey had acted in TV programmes Stella and Doctors, as well as making her appearance on the 12th series of Britain's Got Talent.
She impressed the judges with her rendition of I Wanna Be Loved By You and her cheeky personality won her the hearts of viewers.
Asked by judge Amanda Holden if she was married, Audrey replied: "No, I was in love many, many times… 22 gentleman."
Her comment saw her playfully labelled as a "minx".
Following her stint on the ITV show, Audrey appeared in a York pantomime and had a two-episode appearance on Carters Get Rich.
In her career, the performer starred as a member of dance troupe The Roly Polys, who appeared as regulars on Les Dawson’s BBC show during the 1980s.
At the age of 90, Audrey appeared in her first pantomime playing Potty T Potts in Beauty and the Beast.
