The heartbroken friends of a young Motherwell mum who died in Tenerife have raised hundreds of pounds for her family.

We told yesterday how 24-year-old Megan Brannan passed away at her “favourite” holiday hotspot while visiting with family.

She only gave birth to her daughter less than a year ago.

Hundreds of devastated pals have paid tribute to the “princess” on social media, raising more than £1000 for her grieving family.

A GoFundMe page was set up in the hours after her death to help the Brannan family.

We told yesterday how her devastated sister Toni paid tribute to the former Our Lady's High School pupil.

She wrote: "My sister, my role model, my best friend, the light of my life.

"You taught me everything I know, you were a mother figure to me you did everything you possibly could in your life to make sure I was okay and protected me at all costs.

"We had a bond like no other and no one could ever understand how close we were and I promise I will do exactly that to your precious baby."
