A woman has died two months after her husband was killed by a suspected gas leak from a broken fridge while on honeymoon in Mallorca.

Mary Somerville, 39, was found unconscious lying next to Jaime Carsi at a holiday home on 6 May.

Carsi, 40, an investment analyst, was found dead in bed at the holiday home in the north-east of the island.

Somerville was taken to hospital in a serious condition but died at St Columba’s Hospice in Edinburgh on 2 July.

The Mallorcan newspaper Última Hora previously reported that Somerville and Carsi had married two weeks before the incident.

They had flown from their home in Edinburgh to the family owned house in the Cala Mesquida resort.

However, when the couple did not turn up for a planned boat trip the alarm was raised, the MailOnline reported.

At the time a spokesperson for the Guardia Civil police force in Mallorca said: “Everything suggests that this was due to the malfunctioning of a gas fridge, which led to a carbon monoxide leak.

“The man was found dead and the woman unconscious. Both were found on the bed. It appears to have been a domestic accident.”

Iain Stewart, the executive director of the Edinburgh Interfaith Association, paid tribute to Somerville, who was originally from Abriachan, south-west of Inverness.

Stewart posted on social media: “It pains me to share this deeply heartbreaking news. My good friend and friend of the Edinburgh Interfaith Association Mary Somerville sadly passed away.

“Many people will know Mary through her role as a teacher in the Art of Living. I will remember Mary for her warm and infectious personality and smile that would light up any room.”

Tributes were paid online to Somerville, a talented harpist who was a yoga and meditation teacher as well as a breathwork instructor at the non-profit Art of Living Foundation in Edinburgh.

One person posted on social media: “Mary was a special soul, always happy, always smiling.”

Another said: “I am so very sorry to hear this. I met Mary several times, she always shone with so much light, love and grace. What an inspiration. May she have deep peace.”

According to reports in the local Última Hora newspaper an autopsy on Carsi had determined he had died from carbon monoxide poisoning.

Carsi described himself online as being from Madrid, but it is believed he moved to the UK as a child and relocated from London to Edinburgh around six years ago when he got a job as an investment risk analyst at Baillie Gifford.

The Foreign Office and the Guardia Civil have been contacted for comment.
