We’ve won the £2million National Lottery jackpot but are afraid we’ll lose it all at any moment
A HAPPY couple who won a whopping £2million in the National Lottery fear their fortune could vanish at any moment.
Marie Kibler and husband Paul, from Birmingham, admitted they still shop in Poundland to save their precious pennies.

Although they are now a lot richer, the couple says they “can’t go out and be completely reckless.”
Paul, 59, even continued his gardening business four years after they won the big prize in 2012.
And they’ve made every penny count, spending the fortune on things that benefit others.
Marie said: “The proudest thing I have done with the money is buying a defibrillator for my grandson’s school.”
Paul added: “It’s a special school and we were over the moon to give them that.”
The pair are enthusiastic volunteers in their spare time and have raised a lot of money for various charities.
They helped raise an impressive donation for cancer research after their daughter was diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
Paul also volunteers to look after the Lichfield War Memorial.
