Georgia Toffolo was delighted to win over £37,500 on a £5,000 bet at Cheltenham Festival.
The former Made in Chelsea star, 27, celebrated her “beginner’s luck” after her dramatic win on the first race of the day.
Proudly the jungle queen showed off her winning ticket on social media.
Alongside it, she wrote: ”OH MY GOD beginners luck. Bloody hell can’t believe it. Generous donation incoming to both the @BritishRedCross and @decappeal.”
The Disasters Emergency Committee, working mostly in Ukraine, thanked the star for her support.
They replied: “Thank you so much for supporting our appeal Georgia!
“Your contribution will help aid reach our member charities in Ukraine and neighbouring countries!”

Toffolo was quick to clarify it was the first race of the festival.
“Seeing some confusion re my caption - beginners luck because it was the first race of the festival! It is not, one might say my first rodeo. Wouldn’t normally share a bet like that but if it gets more people donating to the charities I’ll take the stick,” she added.
The I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here star split her bet with £2,500 on Constitution Hill to win the Sky Bet Supreme Novices’ Hurdle and Jonbon to finish second at 14-1, with returns of £37,500.
The other £2,500 went on Jonbon to pass the post followed by Constitution Hill at 18-1 which would have pocketed her £47,500.
Jonbon and Constitution Hill were considered the front runners for the race opener on Tuesday,
