LOTTO tycoon Adrian Bayford is scoffing up to seven gourmet Cornish pasties a day, pals say.
The £148million winner gets about 50 delivered to his mansion a week.
Friends are increasingly worried for the chubby high roller saying he has holed himself up in his £8.5million pad alone.
They claim the ex-postie devours piles of £1.55 pasties from Cornish mail-order firm Philps, saying they remind him of his childhood in Cornwall.
Friends fear he is becoming isolated after closing his music shops and laying off pals who worked there.
One friend said: “Everyone is really worried about Adrian — he really hasn’t been himself. First of all he fell out with all his close mates and sacked them.
“Now he just sits around eating pasties — it can’t be good for him.
“He loves Cornwall and says the pasties remind him of it. He gets them delivered — it must be 50 or 60 at a time. He’s been having five to seven a day.
“All he wants is someone to share his life with — but money can’t buy that.”
Another pal said: “He eats a lot and just sits on his a**e. He eats lots. He goes out to eat, mainly steaks and burgers.
“He doesn’t eat much home cooked food, just takeaways.”
Pals say he has also fallen out with relatives and become increasingly inactive after losing in love. He was dumped by sausage factory worker Marta Jarosz, 35, stable girl Sam Burbidge, 31, and waitress Lisa Kemp, 40.
Adrian, 48, split from cleaner wife Gillian 15 months after their 2012 EuroMillions win and moved to Linton, Cambs.
