A lottery winner who scooped £11million then lived as a recluse in Scotland has died at the age of 73.

Paul Maddison and his former business partner Mark Gardiner won over £22million in the lottery in 1995.

After the two shared the jackpot, Mr Maddison, who is originally from East Sussex, moved to Perth.

He reportedly died on November 28 just a few months after the death of his wife Evelyn, who was 62 years old.

The Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service confirmed to the Daily Record that there were no suspicious circumstances surrounding Mr Maddison’s death.
