One of the UK’s biggest lottery winners who won a £22.6million jackpot with his friend was living alone in a modest flat when he died, it has been revealed.
Double-glazing salesman Paul Maddison shared a £22 million jackpot with his friend just months after the National Lottery launched in 1994, reports the Daily Record.
It has now come to light that the millionaire, who purchased a Scottish castle with his winnings, was living in a £165,000 flat in Perthshire when he died at the age of 73.
After his death, a significant portion of his fortune went to the taxman. Paul and his friend Mark Gardiner made headlines in 1995 when they won the £22.6 million jackpot.
