A grandmother who became a EuroMillions winner for just 10 minutes is now back to living in a mouldy flat. Margaret De Micheli, 72, thought she had won the life-changing £34million jackpot after belatedly checking her lottery tickets.
After buying a EuroMillions ticket for the March 29 draw, she went to the Post Office to check her results and was given a slip by the shopkeeper to confirm she had won the mega jackpot. However, after being advised to check the numbers one more time at a nearby Tesco, she was given heartbreaking news.
She did not have the winning numbers and after contacting the National Lottery they confirmed her hopes of a retirement for her 78-year-old husband had been crushed.
