Bradley Lowery: Ladbible sorry for false death report
Bradley Lowery is receiving palliative care at home in County DurhamThe family of terminally-ill Sunderland fan Bradley Lowery's has accepted an apology from the website Ladbible which wrongly claimed he had died.
Six-year-old Bradley, from Blackhall Colliery, County Durham, has neuroblastoma and is receiving palliative care at home.
It is believed trolls started an RIPBradley hashtag on social media on Sunday which was picked up elsewhere.
Ladbible said it was investigating and pledged a £20,000 donation to his fund.
Bradley, an avid Sunderland fan, became the team's mascot and also led out the England team for its World Cup qualifier against Lithuania in March.
