FacebookGetting dumped is down there with the worst things in the world. Getting dumped by text is even worse.
And the last thing you’d want your ex doing after they broke your heart is winning the lottery, that’s for sure.
So you definitely wouldn’t want to be Dan White, who had all of that happen to him.
Dan, 21, is currently feeling very unlucky after his ex-girlfriend’s family just won £61 million on the lottery.
SWNSDan and Courtney Davies dated for two years, but she ended up calling time on their relationship before moving to university in Southampton.
Her mum, Sonia, had bought the ticket to celebrate beating cancer and decided to share the jackpot out between her family – even giving Courtney’s sister’s boyfriend an equal £12m share of the winnings, the Mirror reports.
To make matters worse? Dan lives beside Courtney’s sister and her boyfriend. And naturally, his mates are giving him a pretty hard time over it.
He said:
All my mates are savaging me about this – the first I knew of their win was my phone going nuts.
The boys were all sending me links and jokey Snapchats asking if I was gutted.
One said: ‘How much have you cried since you found out mate?’
SWNSYou can decide for yourself whether he’s bitter about it:
She called it off by text which I didn’t think was the right thing to do but I wish her all the best even though I won’t see any of the money!
She could give me a million a year for the two years I went out with her – I wouldn’t say no to that.
Not sure that’s how it works, Dan.
