An Englishwoman hid the lottery win from her husband for fear that he would get into an accident lottery two million pounds (193.7 million rubles) and hid the news of her sudden wealth from her husband, as she was afraid for his safety on the road. This is reported by the Daily Star.
Andrea Lowe, 43, is married to Mike, 50. The woman said that the last year and a half have been very difficult for them: many relatives have died due to the pandemic. “It was incredibly difficult. We realized how important it is to create shared memories, she admitted.
Recently, while lying in bed, a woman checked her personal account on the lottery website and saw that she had won a large sum. The Englishwoman was so shocked that she did not know what to do. “I did not immediately inform Mike about the win for fear that he would get into an accident. He had to get behind the wheel and take the children to school. It seemed to me that I had been waiting for his return for ages, and the school is only a few minutes away, “she admitted.
When Mike returned, his wife informed him of the prize. He considered the prize a fraud and did not believe his wife even after she showed him her personal account on the lottery website. Only a phone call to the lottery headquarters helped to convince her husband.
The money has already arrived in the couple's bank account. Lowe intends to buy a new kitchen first. “The funny thing is that the morning I won, shortly after I found out I was a millionaire, Mike said we couldn't afford a new kitchen because we had to pay for the mortgage. I stood and thought, “I will buy this kitchen!” pay off the mortgage, and then have a good time together.
Earlier it was reported that a resident of the American state of Kentucky retired and became rich on the very first day, hitting the jackpot in the lottery.
