A man from Edinburgh has died and his wife is seriously ill after a suspected carbon monoxide leak at their holiday home in Spain.
Jaime Carsi, 40, was found dead on Saturday at a house in Majorca by emergency crews and Mary Somerville, 39, was discovered next to him.
Ms Somerville is understood to be in a serious condition in Manacor Hospital.
The newlywed couple were staying at a rural property in Cala Mesquida in the north-east.
Majorcan newspaper Ultima Hora reported that Mr Carsi and Ms Somerville married two weeks before the incident.
It said they were due to go on a boat trip on Saturday and the alarm was raised when they failed to show up.
Mr Carsi was an analyst for a Scottish investment management firm.
'Warm couple'
Patti Montella, a friend of the couple, said he was a "magnificent soul" in a social media post.
She wrote: "Jaime Carsi came into my life and took up residence in my heart, so many years ago, in London.
"His smile and spirit are pure love.
"And when he married our precious Edinburgh girl, sweet Mary, it was a match made in heaven."
The couple were involved in the Edinburgh Interfaith Association which aims to bring the city's religious faiths together.
The association's director Iain Stewart said: "They were just such a warm, open couple - they would light up the room.
"Jaime was a joy to be around, he was so open, such a kind person - you just felt better about yourself when you were with Jaime."
Ms Somerville is a talented harpist, who often plays at events organised by the association.
Mr Carsi described himself online as being from Madrid but it is believed he moved to the UK as a child and relocated to Edinburgh from London about six years ago
Police in Majorca confirmed the incident is under investigation.
A Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office spokesperson said: "We are supporting the family of a British national who was hospitalised in Mallorca. We are in contact with the local authorities".
