Just been reading a link someone put up on The Aaron too win page and Jay's mum has told their local paper that Jay was the people's winner and that death threats had been made against Aaron, she also states that Aaron isn't going to share the £50k with Jay

(The comments at the bottom are worth a read! )
Assuming Jay's mum has been quoted accurately (which, let's face it, isn't a certainty), her comments are premature at best. Beyond that, they could be considered bitter, defamatory and possibly worse...
She must have been interviewed this morning at the latest: as we were discussing further up it's highly unlikely that Aaron was actually handed £50K cash, and it will therefore take some time for that to come through (apparently it was weeks before Cameron got his prize money). Then they all have to get together, and probably have to take financial/tax advice. It will take a while to sort out.
Besides, they will have to get the "£10K each" split sorted out as well, If Aaron gave Jay £20K and the other split never happens, we'd have the situation of Jay finishing with more money that Aaron. One of the peculiarities of the various deals done is that Aaron's deal with Jay can be settled without Aaron actually giving him a penny (Jay's cut can come from Alex instead.)
The wrap party is tonight, so I wouldn't have expected any movement on settling the deals until after that anyway.
A couple of other points:
1) Jay's mum repeats the lie that Aaron's the only winner to be booed (Cameron and Rachel were too.)
2) The Chronicle article says that "Jay pocketed £15,000", which implies he's reneged on a deal too...
