But their trip ended in tradegy before the afternoon of Saturday, June 7 when Police Scotland officers discovered the couple's bodies. A spokesman for Police Scotland said there were no suspicious circumstances, according to The Sun. Adele's heartbroken mother Anne posted a heartbreaking tribute on social media, sharing a picture of the pair on Facebook along with the caption: 'I am devastated to be writing this — my eldest daughter Adele and her partner Craig have sadly passed away. The family are heartbroken at this time. You are my firstborn, the one who made me a mum. I'm in pieces, another part of my heart is in heaven.' One friend posted photos of her on country walks with Adele. She said: 'Thank you for always being an amazing friend, always honest and caring.' A neighbour in Longridge said: 'They were a good couple who liked camping. It's a tragedy.' Police Scotland shared the following statement in relation to Adele and Craig's death's: 'A man and woman were found deceased within a tent on the side of Loch Awe at 4.25pm on Saturday. Their deaths are not being treated as suspicious.' It comes just days after a body was found in a wooded area near Falkirk believed to be Cole Cooper, a 19 year old who vanished last month.
