A Perthshire woman who documented her battle with ovarian cancer has died.

Fi Munro was diagnosed with stage four of the disease in 2016 when she was just 30-years-old

Her partner Ewan has posted on her social media account saying "the hurt is too great to bear at this time."

"It is with the heaviest of hearts that I must tell you that my beautiful Fi has left us. She passed peacefully on the 7th July surrounded by the enormous love of her family," he said.

"A private funeral service has taken place, she is now at peace. She has been such a huge inspiration to all those around her, filling the space with love, compassion, fun.. and a little bit of swearing!

"I know she has been an incredible support to all of you out there who follow her Instagram, Facebook and blog and she leaves a huge hole in all our hearts.

"I hope that wherever she is that she gets her wish, to be reunited with friends and family lost, and to have the most amazing time with them all.

"She asked that you all share and honour your love for her by giving a random act of kindness in her name.

"I won’t be responding to messages or comments on any of these platforms, the hurt is too great to bear at this time, but let your love for Fi continue, all her social media will remain for you to look back on fondly."
