Rebecca Williams (24) was caught in the same blaze that killed her boyfriend Cameron Logan (23) at his family home.

Parents David and Cathy Logan were treated for smoke inhalation after also being caught in the fire.

Police are treating the blaze as murder and have launched an investigation.

Rebecca’s dad said on social media: “Thanks for all the thoughts and wishes. No real change yet but I will try to put up news when I can.

“She’s fighting hard.”

Rebecca was rescued from the fire by David and a brave neighbour but remains in a “critical but stable” condition.

Anyone with information about the fire is asked to contact the Major Investigation Team based at Govan Police Office on the 101 number.
