Now the big question …was the delay because of a divorce or is the ticket being cashed by someone else for the person getting divorced? This explains verifying its existence in the 11th hour.

So if Bills Lotto ticket wins and he splits it with Joe who cashes the ticket so Bills ex gets nothing and then gets found out seeing as the ex would have gotten half would Joe get to keep his half and Bills half goes to the ex?
Just thinking out loud.
After all they say Karma is a bitch.
