SUSAN Boyle says she finally feels “accepted by the world” — and insists she’s never been happier.

The Britain’s Got Talent star — whose debut album, I Dreamed A Dream, is set to top the charts — has denied reports she’s on the verge of another breakdown.

“I have never been accepted by the world before,” Boyle, 48, told Britain’s News of The World newspaper.

“Now I DO feel part of it and I find it really exciting.

“I feel very content within myself, and as I’m finally achieving my dream I feel so lucky and privileged. I keep asking myself, ‘Is this really happening?’ And I keep expecting someone to say, ‘Ha ha, love, we’re kidding.’

“Everyone has fears but mine is probably that this will all disappear. I want it to keep on going as long as possible.

“If it did all go away tomorrow, I know that I’ve enjoyed every moment of living the dream now.”

“It means I’m a wee bit slower at picking things up than other people,” Susan said of her mild learning disabilities. “But I’ve got a great deal more ability than people give me credit for.

“At school, I felt very frustrated, very lonely – people didn’t want to sit next to me in class. I was often bawling my eyes out and it does tend to chip away at your personality.” Her album track You’ll See – a version of Madonna’s hit – is meant as a fingers up to the bullies who tormented her.

“That’s a statement I was trying to make,” she explained. “‘You may have done that to me when I was younger but you can’t do that to me now.’”
