EUROMILLIONS winner Jane Park has hired two beefy bodyguards after a sick troll threatened to attack her with acid.
The 21-year-old has been pictured running errands flanked by two burly men from Spears Worldwide Security in order to keep her safe.
Jane previously admitted to fleeing her home after an online troll hacked her phone and stole intimate pictures.

One had a tattoo sleeve and a bald head, while the other had a buzz cut and wore a black coat and jeans.
