Inside tragic life of UK's youngest Lottery winner who blew £1.8m on drugs and boob jobs…and is now going back to school | The Sun

BRITAIN'S youngest National Lottery winner who blew her £1.8million jackpot on drugs and boob jobs is now going back to school.

Callie Rogers, 34, was just 16 when she hit the jackpot in 2003 and first made headlines.

The huge win saw her life spiral out of control as she went off the rails.

She blew thousands on wild parties, three boob jobs and drugs, plus around £300,000 on designer clothes.

The former £3.60-an-hour checkout worker later described the win as a “curse” which drove her to consider suicide.

But Callie is now turning her life around and going back to school.

The mum-of-four has revealed she has secured a place at University of Central Lancashire to train to become a nurse.

Sharing the news, Callie said: "Taking time out and working on yourself to become a better person pays off.

"So proud of myself and the future I'm making for my little family."

She will start the course in September this year.

It comes after Callie worked as a carer in 2018 having gone back to school to study social care.

After squandering her 2003 jackpot, she had to rely on Universal Credit back in 2021.

Callie, from Cumbria, was also involved in a car crash while on cocaine.

She had to be pepper-sprayed by cops and was given a driving ban.

In 2018 Callie told of how she feared she was going to die when two women assaulted her after a night out.

The mum was left unconscious in a pool of blood after suffering broken ribs, smashed teeth, concussion and permanent damage to her sight.

She has also suffered from depression – but claims she does not regret the win.

Recalling the moment, Callie said: “We all make mistakes in life and I made some when I was young and naïve but winning the lottery was a big part of becoming the person I am today and I’m proud of who I am.”

However, she called on Lotto bosses to raise the age limit to 18.

She said: “You’re only 16, with all that responsibility. At that age, you can get the best advice ever but you’re not in a position to listen.

"I was too young. Overnight I went from carefree child to adult.”

Of her drug use, she added: “I’d never tried them until I was 21 and even then it was only at weekends if there was a party and someone had some.

"But that period only lasted for about a year.”
