The UK’s biggest ever lottery winners have divorced eight years after bagging a \u00a3161 million jackpot.<\/p>\n

EuroMillions winners Colin and Christine Weir were granted a quickie divorce by a judge at the Court of Session in Edinburgh just days after they put their \u00a33million former home on the market.<\/p>\n

They had reportedly been living in separate mansions for several months after they ‘drifted apart’ when Colin, 71, went to Partick Thistle games while Christine, 62, attended charity events.<\/p>\n

The couple’s split come after lottery winners Adrian Bayford and wife Gillian broke up just 15 months after their \u00a3148million win in 2012.<\/p>\n

A statement issued in April on behalf of Colin and Christine, from Largs, Ayreshire, said:\u00a0 “It is with deep regret that Chris and Colin Weir confirm they have been living apart for some time and intend to divorce amicably.<\/p>\n
