‘So lonely’ £1m lotto girl moves back with mum
Jane, 21, sells dream home for £185,000
THE country’s youngest EuroMillions winner has moved back in with her mum – because, despite winning a million quid at just 17, she’s lonely.
Jane Park, now 21, scooped the prize with her first-ever lottery ticket. But she recently said the money had made her miserable and that she was considering suing Camelot because she was too young to win so much cash.
She has now sold the semidetached “dream home” she bought with her winnings, and flogged her furniture on Facebook.
Speaking in an earlier interview about the three-bedroom property she bought on an estate in Prestonpans, near Edinburgh, she said: “It was massive and it got lonely and I was so scared... it was horrible.
“So I thought the easiest thing to do was rent it out. Then I moved back with my mum.”
Jane snapped up the house for £169,995 three years ago and sold it for £185,000 in December.
The listing described the house as an “exceptional three-bed semidetached villa... within this soughtafter modern development”.
She posted photos of the furniture from the house on her Facebook page, asking friends to get in touch if they fancied the patterned sofas and white dining table and chairs.
She wrote: “Anyone interested? Message me.”
She wanted £150 for the table and chairs and £80 for a television unit.
INVESTMENT
Jane rented the property out before she put it on the market last year. A spokesman said: “Jane has a strong team of financial advisers who help manage her portfolio of investments wisely.
“From time to time this will involve releasing funds from one profitable venture to enable her to reinvest in bigger projects.”
Jane also used her win to splash out on designer handbags, holidays and £4,500 boob job.
Last month she told the Sunday People the windfall had ruined her life and was considering legal action against lotto bosses. She claimed someone her age should not have been allowed to win.
Jane said: “At times if feels like winning the lottery has ruined my life. I wish I had no money most days. I have material things but apart from that my life is empty. What is my purpose in life?”
However, she says she has no plans to give the money away.
Jane is facing a drink-drive charge, which she denies, and will stand trial this week at Edinburgh sheriff court.
