We’re not here to talk about Joe Thwaite, Britain’s biggest ever EuroMillions winner, who hit the jackpot of £184 million on May 10 with a Lucky Dip ticket.
Rather, we’re delving into what The Daily Mail saw as an entirely different angle: Joe’s ex-wife, Sara Jane Frost (pictured above), and her living situation.
She’s not as lucky, that’s for sure.
Apparently, she is on the way to being forced out of her modest rented property after the landlord put it up for sale.
While Joe and his current wife, Jess (below), have always enjoyed a comfortable life in a £600 000 Cotswolds home – which they share with their two children, ponies, and chickens – Sara doesn’t enjoy the same luxuries.
She works for the NHS, is thought to rent the mid-terrace property for about £900 a month, and drives around in an old Ford Fiesta.
Shame.
She is also taking care of the two children she had with Joe, Dominic, 21 and Sophie, 20, who are both at university.
With news of Joe’s win going public, there’s a push for him to help Sara out:
The three-bedroom house in the West Midlands she lives in is up for sale for £275,000 and neighbours hope that, after her ex-husband’s big win, she will now be able to buy it.
One told MailOnline: “She’s a lovely lady, always nice to talk to and she rents the middle house of the terrace and lives there with her son and daughter. She’d like to stay in the house as she’s been there for about three years.”
Another neighbour added: “Perhaps now she’ll be able to make the owner an offer they can’t refuse if her ex-husband gives her a share of his new fortune. We’d all like her to stay as being our neighbour.”
Someone also went as far as to mention something about her possibly swapping her Fiesta out for a Ferrari.
The Daily Mail has all the pictures of Sara’s humble abode, by the way.
Joe mentioned that he and Sara are still very much in contact and that Sara was “over the moon” when she heard about the win:
“I had a long chat with her – because obviously putting the children through university… she was over the moon, absolutely over the moon for them and what this can mean for the children going forwards.”
Seems his thinking is on the right track, at least.
Are the gossip rags doing okay? Let’s end it there.
