FIRST Minister Nicola Sturgeon's sister has shared a heart-warming picture of the siblings' reunion on social media.
Gill Sturgeon revealed the moment she met up with her sister after lockdown restrictions were eased in Glasgow at the weekend.
Posting on Facebook, she shared a selfie of the pair with the caption: "Reunited," with heart emojis.
The moment went viral with hundreds of comments, likes, and shares.
SNP leader Sturgeon had previously been barred from visiting her family in Ayrshire because of lockdown restrictions.
People residing in Glasgow were not allowed to leave the council area for weeks when the city remained in level 3 as the rest of the country saw restrictions lifted.
Sturgeon - who resides in Glasgow - finally visited her NHS worker sister Gill once level 2 restrictions came into place. This means Scots can meet indoors in groups of six people from three separate households.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
