Cleaner, 39, 'who had a daughter with Premier League football club chairman eight years ago wins part of his £18million fortune' after his death aged 70

A cleaner who is said to have had a daughter with a former Premier League football club chairman has reportedly won part of his £18million fortune.

Barbara Jadrych, 39, is believed to have entered a relationship with former Southampton chairman Leon Crouch in 2011, while she was working for him.

The pair reportedly had a daughter together, who is now eight years old, and lived in his luxurious £8.5million mansion until he died of cancer aged 70 in 2019.

Barbara, who works as a part-time dinner lady, issued a High Court writ, which said Crouch promised to look after her financially following his death, The Sun reported.
