19.A mystery woman said today she has won£1.5 million from the UK National Lottery-but has never told her husband.For the past three years,the woman,a mother-of-two who gave her name as Jane,had hidden her fortune from colleagues,friends and family,she said.
"Jane"has remained in her job and,if she ever splashed out on treats for the family,tells her husband she has had a pay rise or bonus.
The woman told her extraordinary story on BBC Radio Five Live this morning.
Presenter Victoria Derbyshire was hosting a phone-in which asked the question:"Is money guaranteed to make you happy?"
"Jane"called in and began,"I won quite a bit of money",just under£1.5million,and I've never,ever told anybody.Not even my husband."
Derbyshire said,"You're kidding me.Why not?"
"Jane"replied,"Fear that it would change our lives too dramatically.My husband had,many years ago,a small drug problem-around 15 years ago.And I'm scared with the money and perhaps the high life…he would go back there."
She continued,"I do feel if I had said,yes,I've won this money,that he would have wanted holiday,he perhaps would have wanted to give up work,which would destroy our little family unit we've got now."
The presenter told her,"I'm very surprised,I can barely believe it but it's clearly true.Do you feel it's made you happier?"
"Jane",who said her won was"about three years ago",said,"It's nice because I know I haven't got to worry about bills."
Derbyshire told her,"I'm full of admiration for you,but is it not a betrayal of your relationship?"
The woman admitted,"I feel terribly guilty in one way,but in another way,we've got two young children and I think,well,if their lives change dramatically then it's not fair on them.So I just want to keep things as they are."
