She coughed up £2million in March just weeks after scooping the £120million jackpot.

She then paid £4million in August to free her beau from prison in North Carolina after he was arrested on suspicion of trafficking and intending to sell heroin.

McDow was bailed again in October and investigators in the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office claim he is a gang member, the StarNews of Wilmington reported.

Deputies said he conspired in a street race that saw two Corvettes going about 100 mph Saturday night, according to the news outlet.

McDow was arrested in November last year following a yearlong investigation into drug trafficking rings, the New York Daily News reported.
