Infamous 'Lotto lout' National Lottery winner Michael Carroll claims the parties at his former home would have made the Playboy mansion "look shit".

Michael Carroll, 40, won nearly £10million aged 19 in 2002 and spent £340,000 on a six-bedroom home in Swaffham, Norfolk, before upgrading the home to the tune of £400,000.

Now, with all of his money gone, Michael has opened up on the cocaine-fuelled debauchery that took place at the home, nicknamed The Grange.

"I lost count of how many women I slept with after a couple of thousand but it was up there [around 4,000]," he told The Sun.

"Yeah I had the cocaine parties. That all happened. I remember sniffing with this old London gangster in his 80s.

"Yes I was living the high life, when I was on the coke, a typical day would be wake up, line of coke, half a bottle of vodka, then just walk out the door and party. We'd go up to London every day from Norfolk.

"And the mansion – that place could tell some stories. It would make the Playboy mansion look s***."

However, he now lives in a one-bedroom flat in Elgin, Scotland, and has squandered all his money, even after selling The Grange at a huge loss in 2010.

He previously said he was skint by 2013 and started claiming benefits before working a number of jobs.

But he claims he has no regrets about the way he spent his cash – adding that he believes his two daughters and three step-sons should work for a living so he didn’t set anything aside for them.

The now 40-year-old dad-of-five now works in a quarry. In the Sun interview, he said: "I don't regret or wish anything, if you live like that you're always thinking 'Why did I do that, why did I do this' and I don't want to live like that.

"No, I don't wish I put some money away for the kids. My kids will have to work for what they get.

"I worked all my life before I won and work hard now."
