Her story was an interesting explosion form moribund working poverty to brief reckless glamour and spending but from current perspectives of endless lottery/scratchball winnings, it no longer has much resonance.
She's still alive,still milking her story, she has an official website here:

And it seems there's a play based on her story doing the rounds of the UK.

What's to admire about Viv? (Score:0)
She is like most people who win a large amount of money...the stories of lottery winners going bankrupt is as thick as fleas on a dog...they just overspend and are usually worse off after the win than before.
From what I have read of her she was just materialistic and wanted more things. No financial planning or anything. "I have the money so I'll spend it."
