Man wins 2.3 million pounds lottery day after divorce
London, March 17 : A bus driver in Britain staked his last quid on a lottery ticket, the day after his divorce was finalised, and won half the jackpot of 2.3 million pounds. His ex-wife too won a scratchcard the same day, but for five pounds.
Kevin Halstead, a 50-year-old bus driver, spent Friday out with friends after his divorce and the next day he bought a Lotto ticket. Later, he was left stunned when he won the lottery, Daily Express reported
Halstead's friend said: "Kevin's divorce dragged on for a couple of years. Everything was settled on Friday so he went out and got drunk. On Saturday he decided to spend his last quid on a lottery ticket. He checked the papers next morning and saw he'd won half the jackpot."

But Helen, Halstead's former wife, is not bitter.

"We've been separated a long time. We are the best of friends. In fact, we get on better now than when we were married. It couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke. I wish him all the luck in the world - he deserves it."

"All I'll say is I won and #65533;5 on a scratchcard on Saturday," she was quoted as saying.

she must find every reason 2 console herself. if it happend a week earlier she wld have been 50% winner as well. a rare example of a man "winning" in a divorce case lol
 
I am surprised feminists didn't try to demand half of the money.
 
I saw on the news that the guy has promised to give some money to his ex as well.
 
he must still b drunk after winning all that money then

Perhaps they have got kids toghether and he wants to give some to his kids and wife, and as he says his ex is now his friend.

Couple of months ago, another couple won £56m.

these lucky guys.

i used 2 play the euro and uk lotto but stopped. it seems that only the british and europeans win those lottos. now i just play 29 with the local boys at the corner shop. more chances of winning there lol
 
she should now cry for never wait 1 day more i think 1 day never harm her much.sorry bad luck.
 
This guy got money after he got his freedom two good things at the same time and hope he will spend his rest of life in happiness.
