LOTTO winner Jane Park branded a photographer an 'ugly b*****d' in a foul-mouthed rant moments before she was banned from the road after being caught sozzled in her motor at a McDonald’s drive-thru.

The 21-year-old – who showed up to court in joggers and a hoodie – pleaded guilty to the booze rap and was forced to give up her licence for 18 months.

She was also slapped with a £900 fine for the offence as first revealed by The Scottish Sun.

Park, 21, admitted having 66 microgrammes of alcohol in her breath, when the limit is 22, at a McDonald’s drive-thru at Straiton Mains Road last October.

Fiscal Depute, Nathan Gale, told Sheriff Gordon Liddle that at around 5.46am she drove into the fast food chain where staff noticed that her speech was slurred.

They believed she was under the influence of alcohol and contacted cops.

Officers arrived at 6.05am and Park was still in her car. Police noted a strong smell of alcohol.

She was taken to Dalkeith Police station where the test was carried out.

Defence solicitor Stephen Mannifield said his client lived with her mother and was unemployed.

He said: "She accepts that disqualification must follow because the reading was well beyond the minimum".

He apologised to Sheriff Liddle telling him Park had left her licence in her car at home.

Mr Mannifield said the offence "was a mistake", adding: "She had consumed alcohol three times the limit and decided to transfer herself and a friend to McDonald's".

He suggested that as a result of Park's"poor decision making" it would be beneficial for her to undergo the drink-driving course.

Park was ordered to surrender her licence to the court within 24 hours.

Earlier today Park, who won £1million on the Euro Millions draw when she was 17, went on a foul-mouthed rant as she entered the court.

She shouted: “F*** off” when she passed photographers and camera crews waiting outside the building in the capital.

And she took to social media to post the clip to her 16,000 followers.

She said: “I actually held my phone up and said f*** off to be fair gd try tho.”

She has since deleted the clip from social media.
