British lottery winners gift home, car to house cleaner
February 28th, 2010 - 7:08 pm ICT by IANSLondon, Feb 28 (IANS) The British couple who scooped a 56 million pound ($96.24 million) jackpot have rewarded their hardworking house cleaner with a home worth $4 million and a luxury car.
Nigel Page, 43, and Justine Laycock, 41, rewarded Denise Kelso with their four-bedroom home which she helped them keep spotless for years.
The generous couple, who won the Euromillions jackpot two weeks ago, also gifted her a black Honda Civic to thank her for cleaning their home every week, the Daily Mirror reported.
Saturday, Denise - known as Dee to her pals - moved out of her rented two-bedroom flat to her own house along with her husband James, 64.
Meanwhile, Nigel and Justine have moved to a new home in the West Country which they bought for 4 million pound ($8.87 million).
Justine, a former estate agent said: “All you need to know is I love my cleaner very much.”
Denise has now quit cleaning homes of others and started working solely for the couple, looking after their six-bedroom mansion with 25-seat cinema, indoor pool, sauna, steam room and eight-seat hot tub.
Denise, from Yorkshire, met Justine in 2005 when she used to clean an estate agent’s office where Justine worked. Soon afterwards, Denise started cleaning Justine and Nigel’s family home and looking after their three children.
Before becoming a popular cleaner in the Cirencester area, Denise and her husband James ran a pub in nearby Marston Meysey.
