Louise Goudman suffered a bleed to the brain following the fall from her horse, Bobby, and passed away in hospital three days later.

Her partner, Malcolm Cameron, paid tribute to her and said she “died doing something she loved”.

South Cathkin Farm, based near Rutherglen, where Ms Goudman was a client said she had been having “teething problems” since purchasing the horse and they had been trying to help her.

But she sustained a serious head injury after tumbling from Bobby and never regained consciousness.

Mr Cameron said: “My beautiful partner, Louise, tragically died on the 5th of May 2025, a week before her 41st birthday, following a horse riding accident a few days earlier.

“She died doing something she loved.”
