Glasgow couple celebrate life-changing National Lottery win
A mother of four, Olivia had long been interested in the idea since her own wedding last year—but financial responsibilities meant she couldn't afford to give up her part-time income.

(Image: ALAN PEEBLES PHOTOGRAPHY) That all changed on May 15, 2025, when Olivia and her partner Kevin matched five main numbers in the Set For Life draw, winning the second-tier prize of £120,000 over 12 months.
The winning numbers were: 03, 27, 42, 45, 46, with the Life Ball 06.
Reflecting on her dream, Olivia said: 'We got married with a very low-key wedding last year, so we had a social media content creator instead of a photographer or videographer.
"I absolutely loved the results and have been secretly wanting to try it myself ever since.
'Winning Set For Life has meant I could quit my job and have the luxury of exploring how I make this all a reality, so I cannot wait to start building what could be my dream career!'

Olivia said: 'We rarely buy anything for ourselves as every penny we have usually goes on the kids, so it felt very strange to walk into the shops and not worry about the price tags or whether we could afford it.
'It was a real Pretty Woman moment, strolling down the high street laden with shopping bags!
'A couple of weeks before the win, we had been looking into getting a new car for Kevin as his was really on its last legs.
"We've now been able to choose a brand-new car…still nothing super fancy, but still feels special!"
Their children have also shared in the joy, with treats including an electric guitar, a new bicycle, and a selection of toys.

The second-tier prize—£10,000 a month for one year—is awarded to players who match just the five main numbers.
Each week, National Lottery players help raise around £30 million for good causes, with over £50 billion distributed to projects across the UK since the Lottery began.

ITV star eyes up This Morning hosting role as they recall 'idolising' show
ITV This Morning has seen a number of guest presenters step in over the years, but it seems one star is eyeing up the top spot and they're no stranger to the show. This Morning's hosting duo, Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard, took over the popular ITV show in 2024, following the exit of long-time presenters Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield. In recent times, various guest presenters, including Rochelle Humes, Emma Willis, Rylan Clark and Paddy McGuiness, have temporarily stepped in. However, one ITV personality seems to be eyeing a permanent spot on the show's couch. Ashley James, a Made in Chelsea star turned commentator and regular guest panellist on This Morning, expressed her desire to take on the top hosting role. Ashley, 38, revealed to The Sun: "I've always said that I'm always there when the time comes. I would always love to host This Morning. "I kind of follow where my interests are, and it's got me to where I am today, and I'm always going to work harder than anyone else." Feeling grateful, Ashley reflected on her journey, recalling how she began her career in the entertainment industry back in 2012 without any industry connections, reports Wales Online. Initially, her main objective after quitting her job was to appear on This Morning. Since then, she has become a familiar face on the show, often sharing her opinions on current events alongside Nick Ferrari. Ashley explained: "I wanted to be on This Morning because it's a show that I grew up idolising. It was the goal. "So I love it and it's such an amazing team. I love everybody that's on there, both in front of the camera and and behind the scenes." While Ashley has yet to take up presenting duties, the news broke that Olivia Attwood, famous for Love Island and now a regular on Loose Women, is expected to lead the programme over the summer season. Olivia expressed enthusiasm about her forthcoming stint alongside Ben and Cat in an interview, saying: "I'm going to be doing a couple of shows in the summer, I'm very excited to be joining you guys." She added: "It's a huge honour, I've obviously grown up watching this show and being part of the Daytime team with the Loose Women has been the best experience and this just feels like a very natural progression of that." The endorsement from seasoned hosts Ben and Cat came through loud and clear; they're confident that Olivia will be 'brilliant' in her new role.

Maindee Carnival adds a splash of colour to Newport
Held at Maindee Primary School, the event marked the beginning of a two-year journey under the theme 'Future Maindee,' where young people are stepping into leadership roles to shape the festival's direction. The event, which aims to bring people together, has been running since 1997. The day kicked off with the iconic carnival parade featuring stunning silk flags crafted by local groups including Age Alive, Coffee and Laughs, and Greening Maindee. The parade, led by the drummers of VB Samba, wound through Millennium Walk and across the footbridge to the Riverfront before returning for the opening ceremony, which included a performance by the Maindee School Choir. Live entertainment filled the grounds throughout the afternoon. The main stage, programmed by Newport's youth team, featured acts like Milk Slice, Bryn Geary, Bowen Barklam, and Operasonic. A secondary Youth Stage showcased dance performances and interactive sessions led by Maindee Youth Arts. The Spoken Word tent offered a platform for poets and writers from across Wales to share their voices. The Tent of Intent returned with a focus on sustainability, inviting festivalgoers to explore eco-conscious living. Food stalls, walkabout performers, and community dance spaces added to the colourful festive atmosphere. This year's festival saw young people being involved in every aspect of planning, from staging and marketing to programming and performances. As the sun set over Maindee, the message was clear: the future of Newport's cultural scene is in passionate, capable hands. Organisers of Maindee Festival thanked the National Lottery Community Fund and #NationalLottery players along with Welsh Government Local Air Quality Management Fund, Newport City Council Prosperity Fund for making this project possible. They also passed on their thanks to supporters, volunteers, performers and visitors.
