“Ella was being called all sorts of names, (people were) laughing at her in terms of the way she was dancing and the way she looked,” Markham said while talking to the BBC.
“I was getting abuse in terms of having a child with Down’s Syndrome.” he added
The video went viral and caught the attention of striker Kane who told Ella to “keep dancing”.
He later invited her to be a mascot in their home clash against Everton on May 12.
“I want to thank you for your amazing support. Your family are proud of you as well,” Harry Kane said in a video message.
“We know you’re a big fan and we’d love for you to come down and be a mascot for the last game of the season. Keep dancing and keep doing what you’re doing, lots of love.”
