British couple won $19 million on the UK lottery - husband died destitute...Five years ago a British couple won $19 million on the UK lottery, but the husband died destitute.
Five years ago Keith and Louise Gough were on top of the world after winning their multi-million dollar prize. Keith has died through too much drinking and money problems. A flash BMW car, racehorses, an executive box at the Aston Villa soccer club and other extravagance.
Keith drank through boredom, afer quitting his job as a baker, and then finally their 27 year marriage broke down.
The final act in this tragedy was a conman duping Keith of his final couple of million dollars.
He collapsed and died at his nephews place, regretting the fact his wife had bought the lottery ticket which brought him firstly fortune, and finally misery and death.
He was happy to be able to spend the extra time available with his loving wife and pursue his passion of fishing, but just couldn't handle the stress of having too much money which finally destroyed his marriage and his life.
