LOTTERY lothario Adrian Bayford is planning to fork out on a no-expense-spared wedding to his FOURTH fiancée in 12 years.

The unlucky-in-love former postie, who scooped £148million on the EuroMillions in 2012, has got down on one knee for Tracey Biles, 45.

And a pal revealed to The Sun they're planning a massive bash abroad.

Adrian, 53, and Tracey were pals for years before she dumped bus driver partner Mark Newman, and moved in with the multi-millionaire in 2022.

He popped the question at Christmas and they plan to marry at his favourite Indian ocean resort — where he also took his three exes.

His pal said: “Adrian has always been so soft and, in his own way, he’s actually a real romantic.

“He’s so committed to Tracey that he’s moved his mother-in-law and father-in-law to be into one of the cottages on his estate.

“I mean, that might not be for everyone but they all get on so well — and, let’s face it, there’s plenty of room up there.

“Right now, it just feels like nothing could go wrong.”

It is the fourth time Adrian has popped the question since splitting from ex-wife and fellow winner Gillian — and on all three previous occasions he has been dumped.

But in a sign that this is for real, Adrian has moved his prospective in-laws into a £1million cottage on the grounds of his £12million estate, near Haverhill, Suffolk.

A pal said: “Everyone is really excited for Adrian and Tracey.

“They seem to be the real deal, so hopefully, it’s the happy ending they both deserve.

“It’s no secret what a tough time Adrian has had with his love life and I think he’d actually given up before he got with Tracey.”

Adrian, who owned a music shop, and cleaner Gillian, 51, famously celebrated their 2012 win by ordering a Domino’s takeaway despite just joining the country’s rich list.

They split the following year before Adrian asked sausage factory worker Marta Jarosz, 38, to marry him in a text. It is not clear whether they were engaged.

They parted ways — but not before she was given a £34,000 top-of-the-range Volvo V40.

Inside Adrian Bayford's unlucky love life

ADRIAN Bayford has been unlucky in love.

The former postie and cleaner wife Gillian famously celebrated their 2012 win by ordering a Domino’s takeaway despite just joining the country’s rich list.

They split the following year - with Gillian promptly returning to her native Scotland with the couple’s two children.

There she found love with car salesman Alan Warnock.

Adrian then asked sausage factory worker Marta Jarosz, 38, to marry him in a text.

The trained bodyguard and martial arts expert from Poland met Adrian while she was working on the door at his local pub in December 2013 - a month after his split from wife Gillian.

It's unknown if they actually were engaged.

The pair the called it quits — but not before she was given a £34,000 top-of-the-range Volvo V40.

Next, the lotto winner moved stable girl Samantha Burbridge into his mansion — before she ran back to her penniless ex, taking £500,000 of horses Adrian bought her.

He then moved on to Frankie & Benny’s waitress Lisa Kemp, 42.

Adrian was also ready to wed her before she dumped him for allegedly messaging his ex, Marta.

He was said to have messaged her confessing: "I want you" and "I would marry you no probs".

Now, comes his latest lover - Tracey Biles.

The pair were pals for years before she dumped bus driver partner Mark Newman, and moved in with the multi-millionaire in 2022.

He popped the question at Christmas and they plan to marry at his favourite Indian ocean resort — where he also took his three exes.

His pal said: “Adrian has always been so soft and, in his own way, he’s actually a real romantic."

Next, Adrian moved stable girl Samantha Burbridge into his mansion — after proposing to her two weeks after they'd first met.

He whisked horse-mad Samantha away to a £500-a-night resort in the Maldives - where he dropped a knee during a candlelit meal.

But, she quickly ran back to her penniless ex, taking £500,000 of horses Adrian bought her.

Next came Frankie & Benny’s waitress Lisa Kemp, 42. Adrian was also ready to wed her before she dumped him for allegedly messaging his ex, Marta.

News of the engagement comes a week after it emerged that ex-wife, Gillian had split from fraudster hubby Brian Deans, 43.
