Astrologer Mystic Meg – the face of the National Lottery – dies aged 80

Mystic Meg

Astrologer Mystic Meg has died. She was aged 80.

Mystic Meg was the face of the National Lottery at its launch in the 1990s.

She was also a regular columnist for The Sun and the now defunct News of the World.

Meg was admitted to hospital last month suffering from influenza.

Each week Meg – real name Margaret Lake – would predict facts surrounding possible National Lottery winners.

Her agent Dave Shapland said:

“Without any question, she was Britain’s most famous astrologer by a million miles.

“Nobody came close to Meg in that respect.

“She was followed by millions in this country and also around the world.

“She even became part of the English language – if a politician, somebody from showbiz or ordinary people in the street are asked a tricky question they will say ‘Who do you think I am, Mystic Meg?’

“It shows what an impact she made.”

Israeli-British TV personality Uri Geller posted to social media:

“She was so identifiable by name and image.

“The quintessential fortune teller who brought mystery and mystique to millions of believers.

“She defied the dreary sceptics, as did her fans.

“Much love and positive energy, Meg, on your onward journey.”

The Sun’s editor Victoria Newton said:

“This is devastating news. We have lost an icon.

“For more than two decades Mystic Meg has been a must-read column and cemented her as Britain’s most famous astrologer.

“She was a true professional whose guidance helped our readers daily – our postbag bears testament to this.”
