The unnamed winner has traded barbs in court with his father and the mother of his daughter in an increasingly complex saga, according to reports.

A man who scooped a $1.35bn lottery win is said to be embroiled in a legal battle - with his own family. The Mega Millions winner, who has not been named but is believed to hail from the US state of Maine, won the fourth-largest jackpot in US history last year . But the story has only grown more complex since then, and the man is now involved in legal proceedings with two members of his family, US media outlet The Daily Beast reports.

But in recent court filings, the woman alleged that the man himself told his father and stepmother about the win, The Daily Beast reported. Her lawyers said this 'shatters the remaining shards' of the lawsuit.
