    How Euromillions lottery winner Colin Weir spent £40m in eight YEARS after scooping massive £161m jackpot

    The Sun says A EUROMILLIONS winner who scooped a £161m jackpot splurged £40m in eight years before he died. 

    Colin Weir, who won the lottery in 2011 with ex-wife Chris, passed away aged 71 from sepsis and ‘acute kidney injury’ in December 2019. 

    He was the UK’s biggest lottery winner when he cashed in on the prize, and managed to get through half of his £80m share in eight years. 

    When the dad-of-two died he had a £10,000 stake in Irn-Bru and more than £20,000 invested in Greggs.
