Lottery winner ties the knot once again

Florida LotteryFlorida Lottery: Lottery winner ties the knot once again

Robert Swofford Jr., winner of a $60 million Florida Lotto jackpot, re-married his first wife, after his second wife dumped him when he won the big prize.

Swofford's second wife, Ann, filed for divorce after he hit the jackpot in November. She walked away with more than $5 million of Swofford's $34.7 million lump-sum payout.

Now Ann's sister, Mary Lackey, is suing Swofford for child support.

Swofford fathered children by both women in 1993 while still married to his first wife, Sharon.

Swofford was living with Sharon Swofford when he bought the winning ticket, though he referred to her then as his "landlord." The two retied the knot Feb. 20.

      all he has left to do is marry the sister and he will be the big winner that would be hilarious!

          Winning a lottery doesn't make a foolish person smarter.

            all I can do is just shake my head.  Seems to me, he could have used some of that money for a good counselor.

                I wonder if a big-time drug dealer ever won a BIG lottery hit... there's gotta be some that do play.

                     It appears Robert enjoys the drama.

                      I've redone my website.  Go to www.dr-ew.com.  I kept a lot of the old stuff, and I've added some new stuff.  Look for more new stuff in the coming weeks.

                            I think it's time a person living on minimum wage got the jackpot.

                            It must happen at least once in a while.
