The heartbroken family of a tragic Scots teenager have made a desperate plea for Gerry Cinnamon to dedicate a song to their daughter at his Hampden gig this weekend.
Megan Reid, 17, was a huge fan of the Castlemilk star and it was her dream to see him live before she took her own life in April this year. The Livingston teenager's mum Gemma McKeown and auntie Sam Reid will be travelling through to Scotland's national stadium in Glasgow this weekend to attend the concert in her memory.
Gerry is set to take to the stage both tonight and tomorrow night - and the pair have tickets to the Sunday event. Speaking to Edinburgh Live, Sam, 29, said: "She loved Gerry Cinnamon and always has done; it was something we had planned on doing prior to covid, we were meant to go in May 2020, but it got cancelled, so we never got to do that, and then Megan passed away back in April.
"After Megan passed away money was tight because of the funeral and things, but we managed to get the money together for the event last week and thought right let's do it.
"It's a way for us to get together and talk about her and laugh; my sister is beside herself and has lost her oldest child and only daughter, I can't imagine her pain and she does us so proud, she's incredible and it will be so nice to see her smile even if its just for a minute.
"She was number one music all the time; she loved hair and makeup too. She was a typical teenager and music was number one, a lot of the things on her bucket list were all music related too like Gerry Cinnamon but also it was at the top to go to Tomorrowland so in a couple of years were hoping to get the money together and go over and do it for her again."
Sam added that the family is also aiming to open up a wider
