In a tribute, shared via South Wales Police, Ms Hughes' family said: "Kathryn was an amazing mum, wife, daughter, sister and aunty. She was loved by everyone. As a family we are truly heartbroken. Kathryn will be missed by all who knew her.

"Kathryn had an extremely kind soul and would always put other people before herself. She had a love of Disney, animals and theme parks but was never happier than when she was spending time with her family.

"We also wish to extend our gratitude and warm wishes to the members of the public who raised the alarm, the emergency services who responded to the location of the accident and the staff at Morriston Hospital who facilitated us visiting her.
