One of the UK's biggest ever lottery winners has given birth to a lockdown baby at the age of 48.
Gillian Bayford scooped a massive £148million with her now ex-husband Adrian in 2012 - making them the UK's third biggest ever winners.
The former hospital cleaner was living in Suffolk with Adrian when they won the jackpot. She returned to her native Scotland with their two children after the split.
She went on to start a property business based in Carnoustie, spending millions buying homes to rent out as well as opening a café called Sugar and Spice in Arbroath.
Last year she admitted at Dundee Sheriff Court a breach of the peace against her ex-boyfriend Gavin Innes.
The court heard she had pushed, shouted at and struggled with her ex, a domestic abuse charity worker, on two separate occasions in October 2017
Now, The Sun reports that the multi-millionaire is celebrating being a mum again, after having her daughter Emilie six months ago.
She said: "As far as she is concerned I’m not a lottery winner, I’m just Mum.
“Some things are easier because of the money but it doesn’t really change anything. You still have to change a nappy or deal with her being sick on you regardless of how much you’re worth.”
She added that finding out she was pregnant was 'a bit of a shock at first' because of her age.
She said: "But I’d always wanted another baby. So after a little bit I thought ‘I better get on with this then’. It’s really enjoyable being an older mum. It is like riding a bike, you don’t forget.”
She added that her daughter will not be spoilt or wear designer clothes and had to learn the value of money.
Her café closed in 2016, putting 21 staff out of work, after reporting a £129,000 loss.
She married Brian Deans, 38, in August 2018, six years to the day after her jackpot. She now uses her new husband’s surname.
