Single mum Dawn Scully, 39, says she fell pregnant by ex-mechanic Neil Trotter - who would go on to win a staggering £108million jackpot
A SINGLE mum is demanding £100,000 from a EuroMillions winner she claims fathered her child — and is challenging him to take a paternity test.
Dawn Scully, 39, says she fell pregnant by former mechanic Neil Trotter, 45, before he scooped the £108million lotto jackpot.
She said: "If Neil denies being his dad I'd say prove it — take a DNA test".
But millionaire Neil insists he does not even remember Dawn.
And he says her and others' demands for handouts have made winning "the worst thing I ever did", the reports.
Mum Dawn says her son Liam, 18, insists her son is the "spitting image" of the lottery winner.
And she says Liam is owed the six-figure sum to make up for 16 years without a single child maintenance payment.
Earlier she suggested an out-of-court settlement of £5MILLION in Facebook messages to Neil's family — before backing out in fear of spiralling court costs.
Dawn has had bailiffs trying to evict her over unpaid rent and is raging that Neil is living the high life.
She said she dated the ex-mechanic on-and-off for a year after meeting him in 1998 at a cafe where she worked as a waitress near his car body shop in Morden, Surrey.
Liam was born in 2000 and the father section of his birth certificate was left blank.
Dawn claims that the first time he ever saw his alleged dad was in a photo of Neil spraying champagne after scooping the EuroMillions jackpot in 2014.
Liam told The Mirror: "I’m not after his millions, although if he decided to give me some I wouldn’t be complaining.
“I just want him to accept responsibility for me as his son."
But Neil said he has been besieged by people making up claims to snap up his cash.
He said: "I have had loads of people contact me on Facebook, I’ve probably got about four million kids in this country. Everyone wants a bit of money.
“I never remember a girl called Dawn Scully. I might have met her, I might have met loads of people, I haven’t got a clue. It’s 19 years ago.
“I never went out with her for a year, I can tell you that.”
Dawn also claims she told Neil when she discovered she was pregnant with Liam but he told her that he did not want any kids.
After his lotto win Dawn claims she forked out £500 on a solicitor to write to him to raise the question of maintenance payment for Liam.
But she gave up perusing it in the courts as she ran out of cash.
She said: “Everyone says I should have tried harder, but I felt I couldn’t get anywhere through the system. I didn’t have any money to pay court fees so I gave up."
Neil has refused to take a DNA test fearing it would "open the floodgates" and would leave him "doing DNA for the rest of my life".
Asked if he would pay maintenance Liam proved to be his son, Neil said: “I don’t know, I’d have to sort that out and speak to someone.”
He added: "Winning this has been the worst thing I ever did.
"No one writes anything good about the lottery and that’s why no one in this country, big winners, will go public again".
