A woman believes that she has spotted the "ghost" of her 17-month-old daughter who tragically passed away in her wedding photos.

No parent should have to bury their child, but this was sadly the case for 33-year-old Leah Murphy after her young daughter sadly died in a drowning accident.

As reported by the Sun, 17-month-old Taidyn Murphy fell into an inflatable spa in September 2022 in Queensland in north-eastern Australia.

The toddler, known as Totty, was taken to Brisbane Children's Hospital where she was placed in a medically induced coma, but sadly died in her mother's arms the following day.

The 33-year-old mother of four was reviewing her wedding photographs from when she recently tied the knot and she believes she has spotted Totty watching over her.

Taking to TikTok, Leah penned: "I don't believe in many things, especially with the recent loss of our daughter had me thinking she wasn't there sharing our special day with us, and this proves otherwise. I'm forever missing you my little shadow."

She shared an image from the special day where she and her husband Cecil were sharing a kiss, and she wrote over the video that she believes Totty was there to see her parents tie the knot.

During the video, various frames of the same image are shown which appear to reveal a mysterious figure which appears to be the size of a child lingering behind a tree.

Viewers were clearly moved by the video, with one person saying: "This gave me goosebumps so sorry for your loss. Your little girl was there that day."

A second added: "My tears instantly started falling once I [saw] her. she was making sure you would know she is always there with you."

Leah had also revealed that she was at work when the tragic accident occurred and that her 12-year-old daughter had phoned her and raised the alarm that Totty was unresponsive after falling into the water in the inflatable spa.

Following Totty's tragic death, a GoFundMe page was set up to support the family and the parents penned: "Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Both Cecil and myself are so thankful for each and every donation for our sweet baby totty girl."

It definitely seems like Totty was there with her parents on their big day.
