A mum who split from her boyfriend just days after winning £1 million on a scratchcard has proudly revealed she is in a new relationship. Charlotte Cox, from Spalding, Lincolnshire, bought the lucky Lotto card at a Nisa store in what was a last-minute decision while picking up a Friday night meal with her then-partner, Michael Cartlidge. Just a week later, the couple split, and a dispute over the winnings erupted, reports the Mirror.

Michael, believing he was entitled to a share of the prize, considered legal action. However, lottery operator Allwyn informed him he had no claim to the jackpot, leaving him empty-handed. Now, Charlotte has taken to social media to announce her new relationship with Kyle East. She shared a romantic sunset beach photo, signaling she has moved on from the turmoil surrounding her windfall, according to the Daily Record.
