The ex-wife of an unemployed New Jersey man who just claimed his $273 million Mega Millions jackpot told the New York Post on Thursday that she has no plans to reunite with her ex despite his new-found wealth.

“He’s not appealing to me all of a sudden because he has this money,” Eileen Murray told the paper.

According to Fox News, The couple was married for 15 years until they divorced last October. She told the Post that she paid spousal support and continues to make payments.


“I’m not going after anything. I have morals. I know what I’ve worked for and its everything that I have,” she said.

Murray also said she doesn’t think her ex-husband will reach out to offer her any of the cash, but hopes he “does the right thing.”

“Think about it. How long did I work? How long did I support him? I had to give him a lot of money in the divorce,” Murray said. “You tell me what’s the moral thing to do.”

Murray’s ex-husband said he’d been actively searching for a job over the last year but never received an interview, the Daily Mail reported.

He said he left his two tickets he purchased at the store and a “good Samaritan” reportedly handed them over to the clerk.

“I’m looking for the guy that handed them in,” Weirsky told the Mail. “I’m gonna give him something.”

U seem to be sounding like a judge and tax collector combined grin

You don't even know the terms and conditions of the jackpot
I am talking about US law on gambling wins. It has nothing to do with the
jackpot rules or conditions. The government always take about 70% of the wins.

You deserve better good woman. He is a deadbeat collecting alimony from you because the court says so shows the kind of man he us. A real man with dignity will double is hustle and fend for himself after all he is not disabled or incapacitated , he is just a lazy couch puppy. I imagine the woman has been catering for him all these years. He should do the right thing and pay her for all those years and some more. America too get yeye men sha
Stop all this real man or fake man trash. You don't know what happened between them. You don't know who the man was in the past. Do you think it's every jobless man that is lazy? It's clear you don't know women much. A woman only tells her side of the story. A woman will never tell people what a man did for her, only what she did for him. If he had a psychological problem, she wouldn't say so. What is wrong in one person fending for two? If the roles were reversed, would she ask for a divorce? Most women are vindictive. My guy, I myself don't know what happened, but understand this: Never take a woman's word until you hear the other side of the story.

Don't mind that Goon, He doesn't know what he is Talking about. No Goverment takes %70 of any win, Not even here in the UK were taxes are High, The maximum the Goverment can take is % 35 or %40 tax. And that is the maximum.

Google is your friend. The US federal government takes about 25-30% while the state take 40-50%.
It is not optional because the lottery company will deduct the tax before giving him the remainder.

It's not the woman's fault,she tried and maybe was tired, the man was jobless for a whole year, I guess it was the woman that was feeding him.he should take her back.

Some white..en can be lazy,to hit jackpot at that age, he must have been a chronic gambler and maybe the wife was tried of paying the bills while he gamble around.

She divorce at the bad time,she even said "if he thinks" like she tried for him.

Reminds me of Acrimony. 15 years is no child's play. She's only human afterall. I know the marriage oaths say "in riches, and in in poorness". It's a man's duty to take care of his family.

She left a jobless lazy deadbeat baggage of a man who had been living off her

After the divorce, she kept supporting him (on court orders)

The man managed to fall into some money the only way a lazy jobless person can, lottery.

The woman says she couldn't care less and wont be going after him for the money but if he decides to send some her way fine.

YET

Obnoxious misogynistic goats are heaping her with insults, most of them didn't even read the article fully. If she had gone back crawling and begging, they would have insulted her. Now she's saying she no send him and his money, they're still insulting her. Sometimes a woman just can't win.

but if you look at the whole story you will know it doesn't just add up. they were married for 15 good years without a problem, maybe the man was providing for the family all this while, but once he became jobless for just a year then there was a divorce, maybe she couldn't put up with his joblessness anymore, she filed for divorce with a paltry sum of alimony as a parting gift. now that he hit the jackpot of $273M, she wants her ex-husband to do "the right thing", tell me what is that right thing? if she wants to stake claim to the money because she pays alimony, let's look at their 15 years of marriage to determine who pays more?

that's my view.

This is terribly fun. He should give the women some. They spent 15 years together and they were once in deep love.

.... and she divorced him.....

Except "for better for worse" means nothing to you, she's has lost her place. The "15yrs" means nothing no more, the divorce says so

He will still squander it with his usual lazy way. She’s definitely better off without him.


Look at his fellow lazy bones men trying to make the woman look like the bad person here when she was actually paying him alimony and supporting his jobless ass. You people will never be satisfied with anything a woman does. If she was the one who was collecting money from him while laying around jobless after a divorce, y’all would be hot behind the ears calling her gold digger and ranting about how ‘the west’ gives women everything a man worked for.

Yes the right thing would be for him to compensate her for supporting his lazy ass.


"His lazy ass".... Bleh, Bleh, Bleh......

Call the guy anything..... doesn't matter for now. One would have expected that the honorable thing for the woman to do was to portray his ex in good light, no matter his flaws. We need not know about his "lazy ass". Unfortunately she left when she probably have stayed to help spend/invest the lazy-ass-money.

She sound to me a pained pretender

I expected the woman to say, " I divorced him because he cheated on me ", but no, it's I spent, I supported him, still spending.

Well, can you sincerely tell me how many men in Nigeria and US who have divorced their wives because they are supporting her with money ?

She didn't divorce him because she's supporting him financially.
She pays money for his upkeep even after the divorce. He's jobless.

How many men pay for the upkeep of their kids, let alone an unemployed woman without kids after divorce?

Go and sit down.
