She may only be 18 years of age but student Ianthe Fullagar will have the experience of her life over the next few years after bagging a £7 million share of the EuroMillions jackpot last weekend. While she celebrated her win as only a student could, beans on toast and a glass of cider, life will never be the same for the young lady.
Having just completed her A levels and in her gap year, Ianthe can be excused for taking it very easy for a while as she decided what to do with her new found wealth. Aside from getting a bite on the bum from her dog when she celebrated a little energetically she has already told her mother that she will not need to work for the rest of her life.
It seems that Ianthe found a number of places to hide her winning ticket as paranoia set in, from her bra to her gym bag and every place in between. Can you imagine how you would feel if you lost the ticket of a lifetime!
She is the youngest winner of a EuroMillions jackpot and while she may have scrimped and saved as a student she no longer has to count the pennies!
