This is the first picture of a British mother who died during a holiday in Bali after health officials said she contracted coronavirus.

Kimberley Finlayson, 52, was a mum-of-four and award-winning co-founder of FMC, a dentistry publishing and communications company based in Shenley, Hertfordshire.

She is the first British coronavirus victim to be named.

Her grieving husband Ken tested negative for Covid-19 and has been quarantined at the Sanglah hospital as a precaution since March 8.

Mr Finlayson, a fellow co-founder of FMC, will be allowed to leave after a second negative test.

Their four children were not on the holiday with them and have been left devastated back home in the UK.

Mrs Finlayson - described as the "driving force" of her company and a "flexible innovator" - fell ill within days of arriving in Bali and was in a serious condition when she was admitted to Sanglah hospital on Monday.

The mum, who had pre-existing health conditions, died in the early hours of Wednesday.

Health authorities in Bali said the British woman had contracted coronavirus outside the country and was Indonesia's 25th Covid-19 patient.

They said she suffered from a number of pre-existing conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, hyperthyroidism and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Her husband's health is said to be "fine" and he is expected to remain in hospital for a few more days.

The Finlaysons had stayed at the five-star Capella Ubud hotel between February 29 and March 3, the day Mrs Finlayson was treated at a private hospital for a fever, Tribun-Bali reported.

She was moved to Sanglah hospital on Monday and died within 48 hours.

The Capella Ubud hotel has moved its guests to other hotels and stopped taking new arrivals.

A deep clean has taken place and staff have been tested for coronavirus and told to self-isolate at home. No other guests or staff have been diagnosed with Covid-19, it is understood.

Indonesian health officials were trying to track down people who had contact with Mrs Finlayson.

Colleagues at FMC, which employs 45 people, were devastated after being told of Mrs Finlayson's death.

Jason Newington, a co-founder and managing director of the firm, told Mirror Online: "It’s been such a shock. She was a big part of the company."

In a statement, a spokesperson for FMC said: "Kimberley Finlayson, one of the co-founders of FMC, has passed away following a short illness.

"A driving force behind the scenes of the company, Kimberley’s career was defined by a commitment to excellence that helped make FMC the UK’s biggest independent dental publisher.

"She approached the world with an infectious passion, creativity and determination that will forever be written into the fabric of the business.

"She leaves behind an organisation committed to honouring her memory."

The spokesperson, in a statement published by Dentistry magazine, added: "Kimberley’s career in dental publishing lasted more than 30 years, but the greatest highs undoubtedly came after establishing FMC with Jason Newington, and her husband Ken.

"Indeed, following that moment, her career was studded with so many highlights that it is difficult to single out just one.

A rash of awards for Dentistry magazine came throughout the 2000s as the magazine asserted its dominance over the UK dental sector.

"It wasn’t limited to one title: Kimberley’s ability to inspire her entire team helped FMC earn finalist status as Publishing Company of the Year on numerous occasions during the same period."

Her projects included Stars of Dentistry, which won a national award for event of the year at the Independent Publishing Awards, and the London Dentistry Show.

The spokesperson added: "Woe betide anyone whose dedication slipped below Kimberley’s exacting standards.

"She demanded much from her people, yet gave back so much more.

"Her generosity outmatched even her determination to excel.

"She championed her family with the same fierce pride with which she approached her business, and her four children were the centre of her world.

"Those fortunate enough to know her will remember a whirlwind of energy and ideas – and an ability to make things happen that few can match.

"Kimberley leaves behind a legacy that will live on for decades to come."

A Foreign Office spokeswoman said: “We are supporting a British man in hospital in Bali, and are in touch with the Indonesian health authorities and his insurance provider.”

Indonesian officials told local media that Mrs Finlayson's body was cremated on Wednesday "according to the procedure for handling the corpses of people infected with infectious diseases due to viruses".

Ten people have died in Britain after testing positive for coronavirus. All were aged over 60 and had underlying health conditions.

A British man in his 70s, who was on the Diamond Princess cruise ship, died in Japan last month.
