New photo Alabama bride and her terminally-ill father perform touching dance routine at her wedding

This touching video of an Alabama bride dancing with her terminally-ill father at her wedding will have you reaching for a box of tissues. 

Mary Bourne Roberts had her father-daughter dance tune picked out since she was a child, when she and dad Jim used to dance around the kitchen to Lee Ann Womack's 2000 hit 'I Hope You Dance'. 

When they finally made it happen during her December 29 wedding in Point Clear, Alabama, it didn't look like she'd imagined. 

Jim was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive and incurable form of brain cancer that typically kills in a matter of months, in May 2017. 

The bleak prognosis left his daughter unsure if he would even be able to attend her wedding to fiance James Butts. So when the father-daughter duo got the opportunity, they made it count. 

Heartwarming video from Mary Bourne's wedding reception shows her and her dad, who is in a wheelchair, holding hands as they twirl around the dance floor singing along to their song. 

The three-and-a-half minute clip ends with almost everyone in the audience wiping away tears of joy, including the father-of-the-bride.

After Jim was diagnosed with glioblastoma in May 2017, his daughter was left unsure of whether they'd actually ever have a father-daughter dance. When her wedding rolled around on December 29, they made the most of the opportunity

Mary Bourne told Fox News that the experience was 'overwhelming', saying that the dance felt like 'second nature' given how many times they'd performed it over the years. 

Her mother Tracy said: 'Our family has been through so much since Jim’s diagnosis. It was awesome to be able to celebrate Mary Bourne [together]… the dance was a dream come true for both of them.'

She said the family was shocked by how much attention the video has gotten, having been viewed more than 78,000 times since it was shared on Facebook on Thursday.   

'It’s been great to see people touched by the love they share – we’re used to seeing it all the time!' Tracy said.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
