Jean McCullagh was the second big winner in the new bingo game – Big N game. She attended the game with her sister-in-laws, Rose and Jessie McCullagh.

Rose and Jessie claim that they all agreed to share their winnings and that Jean promised them each a ₤250,000 share in the big jackpot. Jean claims that promise only applied to the ₤10,000 local jackpot. Jean won the big one and her sisters-in-law want their share. They went to court and obtained an order that froze the winnings so Jean can’t withdraw them. Jean claims that there was no agreement but the sisters-in-law claim otherwise and that there was a staff member in the bingo hall that witnessed their conversation.

The case is now headed for court since the sisters-in-law could not work out their differences. Jean’s lawyer, Cameron Fyfe, believes that there are enough witnesses from the Forge Mecca Bingo hall to prove that there was no agreement, as Jean claims. Jean and her husband went into hiding after the situation became public and received worldwide publicity. They have just recently returned to their Uddingston, Lanarkshire home. Reports indicate that Jean is not going out much. An event that should have been happy is now on its way to a full court case.
