A report from Ultima Hora said an autopsy found that Jaime had died from carbon monoxide poisoning with the Guardia Civil saying that the leak was caused by "the breakdown of a refrigerator."
Tributes from friends of Edinburgh investment firm analyst Jaime have poured in since the tragedy as Patti Montella, a friend of the couple, described Jaime as a “magnificent soul” in an emotional social media post.
A spokesperson said: "Guardia Civil is in charge of this investigation. It seems that it was an accident due to the breakdown of a refrigerator."
Ms Somerville remains in a 'serious condition' in the Manacor Hospital as a spokesperson added: "I confirm that Mary Somerville, 39, is still in serious condition in the ICU of the Manacor Hospital."
The couple were reportedly on their second honeymoon in Majorca having celebrated a second wedding ceremony in Edinburgh with family and friends only 15 days before.
A friend of the couple, Iain Stewart, described them as a “match made in heaven”, and said that everybody is “praying that Mary pulls through”.
