The terminally ill five-year-old boy who became on online star after receiving a surprise visit from 'Spiderman' passed away on Christmas Eve, his family has said.

In a message on the Hope For Jayden Facebook page, Jayden Wilson's family wrote "Jayden fought an amazing battle. By far he was the most bravest person we know.

"But unfortunately late on Christmas Eve, Jayden Died peacefully in his sleep, warm in his bed. He looked so relaxed with a very subtle grin on his face. We believe he waited to be out of hospital to be with his family in the most safest place he knew.

"We now remember Jayden as that cheeky little chappy, always smiling, playing with his favourite toys, on his scooter, enjoying school, and playing with his friends," they add.

Jayden was diagnosed with cancer last year.

The 'Amazing SpiderDad' video - in which Jayden was visited by his father dressed as the superhero - has been viewed more than nine million times on YouTube:
