The mum has been named locally as Danielle Davidson, 33, from Edinburgh, the Daily Record reports. Tributes have been paid to her by friends and family online, who hailed her as a "fighter" and a "lovely lassie".
One relative wrote: "Life's so cruel; you were a fighter; you don't deserve this; not everyone understood you - but those in your life did - now you’re gone."
Another said: "Rest in peace cuz! You will always be loved and never forgotten."
A friend said: "Can’t believe this. Such a lovely lassie, life's so cruel. Thinking of u all."
While another pal wrote: "No way. She truly was a trooper."
An eyewitness said: "I passed by five minutes ago and saw five marked police cars, two unmarked and forensics were getting suited or unsuited. Constitution Street is taped off and there were white sheets on the tram line."
A forensic tent could still be seen in place on Friday morning with officers taping off the road to locals.
Police Scotland has been contacted for further comment. A force spokesperson previously said: "Officers are in attendance following a report of a disturbance on Constitution Street in Edinburgh, which was reported at around 7:50pm on Thursday, May 18, 2023."
