Linse appeared at Swansea Crown Court today where she pleaded guilty to manslaughter.
The charge was accepted by prosecutor Caroline Rees KC after reviewing a psychiatric report.
Linse, who was originally charged with murder, is currently being held in custody at the Caswell Clinic, a medium secure mental health unit.
Ms Rees said: “(We) will accept the pleas to manslaughter which we understand is to diminished responsibility.
“No trial will be needed in this case.”
The mum-of-two will be sentenced at the same court on December 13.
Judge Paul Thomas KC said: It’s a sensitive as well as a tragic case.”
The horror unfolded on January 10 when emergency crews were scrambled to the home, which used to be a physiotherapy studio.
Linse was born in Thailand and describes herself on social media as a “Mom and freelancer with two British kids”.
Her husband Edward, 51, is currently in a secure psychiatric hospital after he battered his wife with a Peppa Pig book in 2017.
He also attacked his wealthy parents at their £1.2million Cheshire home following a 40-year grudge.
A Dyfed-Powys Police spokesman said: “We were called to an address in Upper Market Street at 10.45am on Wednesday, January 10.
“Sadly, a seven-year-old boy was confirmed to have died shortly after. Our thoughts remain with his loved ones at this tragic time.”

MANCHESTER CITY star Rodri has opened the door to a potential move to Real Madrid.
It comes just weeks after the midfielder won the Ballon d’Or, leading Real Madrid to boycott the event.

But Rodri still admires the club and said it would be difficult to ignore the Spanish giants if they came knocking.
He told Spanish podcast El Larguero: “When Real Madrid call you, the best club in history and the most successful… it makes you proud and you always have to listen.
“It’s obvious. You always have to pay attention.”
Rodri, 28, also has no qualms about joining Real despite his affiliation to fierce rivals Atletico Madrid, having come through the club’s youth system.
He recently stated he was not bothered about Real Madrid’s claim that Vinicius deserved to win the Ballon d’Or.
Rodri said: “All the Spanish clubs would have to congratulate me and they haven’t.
“I care about my family and my club. They must have their reasons; I wouldn’t have done it that way and there’s no point in going over it.

Alan Halsall’s future on Coronation Street revealed as he stars in I’m A Celebrity
ALAN Halsall’s future on Coronation Street has been revealed as the actor takes part in this year’s I’m A Celebrity.
Alan, who plays mechanic Tyrone Dobbs on the Weatherfield cobbles, was given time off by ITV bosses for his jungle stint.
Alan’s future on the long-running soap has been revealed[/caption]But fans of the character will barely notice his absence from screens as his disappearance will be blended into the background of other Corrie storylines.
The Sun can reveal the character is not being given an exit storyline by producers and is expected back at work soon after returning from Australia.
A source said: “Because Alan’s time off from filming is so short bosses won’t be addressing his break on screen.
“Filming for Coronation Street is 10 weeks in advance so any potential scenes involving Tyrone wouldn’t be aired until February next year.
“Alan is extremely popular on set and the whole crew are rooting for him in the jungle and can’t wait to have him back and hear about the experience.”
Alan, 42, joined the ITV soap back in 1998 and has been a permanent fixture on the cobbles ever since, with his character Tyrone married to Fizz, played by Jennie McAlpine.
I’m A Celebrity fans have watched Alan open up on his dating life to his fellow campmates, addressing his split from former Corrie sta ex Lucy-Jo Hudson.
He said: “Lucy left Corrie in about 2005, then we got married in 2009. We then split up after Sienna was born.”Alan continued:
“I love what I’ve got, even now I’m on my own I love just being dad. I’ve never done dating apps.”
Alan eventually moved on with Tisha Merry, who played Steph Britton in Coronation Street, but the pair split earlier this year after several years together.
But on the show, despite being camp leader, Alan hasn’t had much airtime so far.
Alan previously told how he was gutted to have to pull out of last year’s I’m A Celeb due to a knee injury.
But some viewers have started to poke fun about his lack of time on-screen, with one saying: “The leaves have gotten more airtime than Tyrone from Corrie at this point.”
So far, Radio 1 presenter Dean Mccullough and Loose Women star GK Barry continue to be put up for the Bushtucker Trials.

Gatwick Airport ‘evacuated’as passengers told ‘get out NOW & stay far away’ with cops probing ‘security’ fears
GATWICK Airport has reportedly been evacuated and passengers told to “get out now and stay far away” – as cops probe “security” fears.
A large part of the airport’s South Terminal has been evacuated – with passengers barred from entering.
A passenger told The Sun: “Police are telling people get out now and get as far away as possible.”
Gatwick Airport said: “A large part of the South Terminal has been evacuated as a precaution while we continue to investigate a security incident.
“Passengers will not be able to enter the South Terminal while this is ongoing.
“Safety and security of our passengers and staff remains our top priority.
“We are working hard to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.”
Gatwick Express said: “Gatwick Airport will not be served until further notice
“This is due to the Police and emergency services dealing with an incident at the airport.
“At present, the station and airport are being evacuated whilst the police are dealing with an incident
“We would recommend delaying your journey until later this morning.
“If you have already left for your journey, you will need to leave the train at either Horley, Three Bridges or Crawley and use local Metrobus services to Gatwick Airport.”
A spokesperson added: “Your ticket will be accepted at no extra cost on these routes.
“Please note that the buses may not be able to stop at their usual stopping locations at Gatwick Airport.”

BRITISH Airways has reversed its decision to scrap a long-haul flight route from the UK.
The flag carrier announced earlier this month that they would be ending their London Heathrow flights to Bahrain.
British Airways will no longer scrap its route to Bahrain[/caption]Having first launched 92 years ago, the route was set to end in March 2025.
However, they have since u-turned and confirmed that the route would continue.
They said: “Following discussions with our partners and stakeholders, we can confirm we will operate a service between London Heathrow and Bahrain International Airport three times a week from the start of the Summer 2025 season.
“This will increase to a daily service from the start of the Winter 2025 season.”
This was also backed by Mohamed Yousif Al Binfalah, CEO of the Bahrain Airport Company.
He said: “As the oldest airline operating out of Bahrain for over 92 years, the enduring partnership with British Airways is a testament to our shared commitment to excellence.”
The route first launched in 1932, when the airline was named Imperial Airways.
The route scrapping was due to ongoing delays with deliveries of Rolls-Royces parts, an issue affecting the entire airline industry.
They said at the time: “We’re disappointed that we’ve had to make further changes to our schedule as we continue to experience delays to the delivery of engines and parts from Rolls-Royce – particularly concerning the Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines fitted to our 787 aircraft.”
British Airways will still scrap its London to Kuwait route from March 2025.
In October, the London to Beijing was suspended, with no confirmed date for it being restarted.
The route first started in 1999, and only resumed in 2023 after the pandemic.
That same month, the London Heathrow and Belgrade was also scrapped after just one year, when it returned after a 13-year hiatus.
In better news, the flag carrier relaunched their flights to Bangkok from Chiang Mai for the first time since the pandemic.
The Thailand route was suspended in 2020, but will operate three times a week, going up to five times a week in January and February.
Additional routes are also being launched to the US.
Seven more flights a week will launch to Miami, with six more weekly flights to Austin and three more to Las Vegas.
Seven extra flights a week will fly to Washington with another weekly flight to Pittsburgh.
The new routes will see British Airways operate 400 direct flights to the US a week during the peak season.

Nepo baby with Bond girl mum and very famous actor dad hits the red carpet – can you guess his parents?
A HOLLYWOOD nepo-baby looked just like his famous parents as he stepped out on the red carpet at the premiere of The Agency.
The 24-year-old, who has a Bond girl mum and a megastar actor for a father, looked dapper in a black suit and white shirt on Thursday.

This young star’s mum starred as a leading lady opposite Timothy Dalton in the 1980s Bond spy thriller.
And his dad is known for being the heartthrob in several classic rom-coms, wooing the likes of Julia Roberts, Jennifer Lopez, Winona Ryder onscreen.
But have you guessed who his parents are yet?
The handsome looking man posing for photos at the The Museum of Modern Art, is none other than Homer James Jigme Gere, the son of US actor Richard Gere and his second ex-wife Carey Lowell.
Homer, who recently graduated from the Brown University, where he majored in psychology and visual art, attended the red carpet premiere with his dad and his wife Alejandra Silva.
His name Homer James – is a tribute to his grandfathers Homer Gere and James Lowell and his middle name Jigme means “fearless” in Tibetan – a nod to Richard’s Buddhism.

She then landed the role as Jamie Ross Law & Order from 1996 to 2001, before returning again in 2022.
Hollywood icon Richard has starred in a string of hit movies – from Pretty Woman in 1990 alongside Julia Roberts to Shall We Dance? with pop sensation Jennifer Lopez.
In 2013, Richard and Carey decided to split after 11 years of marriage.
In 2020, Richard welcomed his latest child into the world at the grand old age of 71.
At the time, he announced that he and wife Alejandra had welcomed a baby boy.
This is their second child as they had their first son, Alexander, in February 2019.
Richard is also step-dad to Alejandra’s eight-year-old son Albert, from her first marriage.
Richard married Spanish activist Alejandra Silva in April 2018.
They had been dating for four years.
The pair actually first met when Alejandra was a little girl as Richard is a family friend.
They then reconnected in 2014 at a hotel that Alejandra was managing – the Treville hotel in Positano, Italy.
Richard, who starred in movies including An Officer And A Gentleman and Runaway Bride, has previously admitted he has no worries about being an older father.
Asked if it was something that concerned him, he said: “Not at all. No.”
Richard has dated some of the world’s most famous women.
From 1991-1995 he was married to supermodel Cindy Crawford.
He has also had relationships with Penelope Milford (1971 to 1978), Priscilla Presley (1983) and Kim Basinger (1986).
