Bingo News: Solicitor of Bingo Millionairess speaks out

23rd November 2007

The solicitor of a bingo millionairess who is fighting to keep her fortune has spoken out this week.

Cameron Fyfe is fighting the case of Jean McCullagh, whose bingo companions are taking her to court claiming that she agreed to split any bingo winnings she made with them.

Mr Fyfe told the Sunday Mail: "Jean is obviously very distressed. The whole thing has completely overwhelmed her. These cases are notoriously difficult to prove and Mrs McCullagh is adamant there was no agreement.

"The onus is on the other side to prove there was an agreement to share winnings. We are confident they won't be able to do this as no agreement was in place. We anticipate calling a number of staff from the bingo club and believe they will support Mrs McCullagh."
Jean, aged 69, is being sued by her two sister-in-laws, Rosie and Jessie, who insist that she promised them £250,000 each.
When she hit the jackpot, Jean became the second player in the UK to win a million pounds playing the game in a Mecca Bingo club.

Margaret Shearer was the first bingo millionaire, winning back in September this year at the same Mecca Bingo club as Jean in Glasgow.
