To ask if Million pound lottery winner who refuses to share money with partner should have shared?

I have been caught with transferring money before where it’s taken an age even though money in my account. I can see how that has happened. They were together for 13 weeks and apparently she still moved him into her house with her dc. Irrelevant.
Either way no way would I be giving him half - I May bung him £10k until I found out about the assault charge on an ex.
The biggest laugh for me was the shopkeeper going to the papers to say she agreed with the ex boyfriend 😂 Everyone so desperate for their £250 from a red top paper 🙄

I’d cry if it was the other way around though

You don't 'attempt' to transfer someone money. You either do or you don't.

He has no right to any of her winnings!

He needs to let it go. Three months is not a relationship.

Because sadly there’s enough idiots out there to support his viewpoint. I saw this story on fb yesterday and 99% of the comments were saying she should have shared, she’s selfish, etc. men calling her names.

She bought the ticket, she scratched it and more importantly it's her details on the back of it so its seen as her money. Personally I wouldn't give him a penny of it

I do think it would have been different if he'd given her the winning numbers but she'd paid for the ticket. She really wouldn't have won otherwise.

All he did was say "Buy a ticket" - that isn't enough to say he owns half of the winnings.

I would give him some money like 20k nothing else. He's a recent partner.

But she'd been with him 3 months! You don't stay that long with someone without some interest.

Anyway, I'm basing my opinion on basic facts. Obvs if he was an abusive Cocklodger etc as mentioned upthread that changes things but the OP was based on the bare facts. So my opinion stands on that.

Oh bog off! Of course she doesn’t owe anything.
thats hilarious.

Unpopular opinion it seems but they WERE both there, £1 Mill is SO much money that neither had to work for. It was a stroke of pure luck, it's at odds not to share that random luck. If it had been a good friend, she'd have shared.

If he'd bought the card she'd have expected something,

£500,000 is a massive amount. It shouldn't matter who handed over the £5.

This is all about base, unattractive but very fashionable, greed.

Humankind is doomed. Or british society is but I think I'll put my bet (and I'll share my winnings!) on humankind being cursed with greed and selfishness and a complete lack of understanding how society needs to work.

He should have bought his own card.

I know someone who has not had much fun since winning a few years ago. It doesn't necessarily guarantee happiness.

There is also one winner who hasn't told her husband of her lottery win. She doesn't trust him not to become a loafer, so has kept it to herself for several years.

But where would this all end? If my friend suggests I’d like a certain restaurant, does that mean I have to invite her there at my expense? If I’m thinking of getting a car and my colleague suggests I have a look at the one her neighbour is selling, am I then obliged to give her lifts to work all the time? If I’m looking to move and buy a place after my sister sent me a RightMove link, is she then entitled to a share of the profit when I sell it on?

You say you’ve changed your opinion now you know his history. Why? Being violent to his ex makes him a scuzzball, but it doesn’t make him less entitled to a share of this lottery win, any more than he’d be more entitled if he was a lovely man who ran a soup kitchen and nursed sick puppies. It’s about legal entitlement - and whether he’s nice or vile, this man has no entitlement to the winnings, and rightly so.

It’s a no brainer. They weren’t a married couple who bought a lottery ticket together. She’s a woman who bought a lottery ticket while she was out with her boyfriend one day. He has no more claim that if he’d been a mate she was out shopping with.

Good for her 😂

my apologies with that new context then 100% it should be charlottes

This is a man with a history of violence towards women ...

Errr, WHAT???

But he also claims that he was the one who suggested she buy the ticket

On that basis, if I suggest a friend gives a bloke she meets on Tinder a chance, I get to sleep with him as well if it turns out he’s got a massive cock.

Without even knowing that you could tell his character immediately. What man moves in with a single mother within three months of meeting her? He seems to bounce from one vulnerable woman to another. Hopefully she will now throw money at therapy so she doesnt end up with another partner beating entitled loser.

If they paid for them jointly with the intention of it being joint winnings - morally I think it should be shared.
im not sure this man cares about morals.

No, this lady should not and doesn't have to share.
I believe if married, it doesn't matter who bought or "scratched" the card, it's half and half in case of split. 😊

I don’t know why I’m continuously surprised by the brazen nature of man.

Imagine being so shameless you try to publicly shame your ex into giving you hundreds of thousands of pounds when you are about to go on trial for violence against another ex. That’s before you even consider they were only together for three months, she paid for it and he tried to steal it. How is this man not embarrassed?

I did not know this. I've learnt something new.
