Roman Kemp appeared in complete disarray when an innocent tweet about a seemingly new chocolate ended up in him 'eating £10,000'. The Capital FM DJ was giving us all the content on Sunday evening (March 19) as he took to Twitter to share a picture of a 'new' Creme Egg he had acquired.
"What is this??? HALF WHITE HALF MILK CHOCOLATE?? @CadburyUK," he wrote alongside the image of him holding up the half-and-half chocolate treat as he appeared to be laying in bed and watching TV.
But he was soon left stressed as he was informed by his followers that the rare find could be worth a decent-sized cash prize. Last year, Cadbury launched a brand new competition to find 'half-and-half Creme Eggs' hidden inside regular Creme Egg wrappers with huge prizes up for grabs.

There was a £10,000 egg up for grabs and 22 worth £50. So depending on where Roman found his, he could have missed out on a five-figure sum after EATING the new treat with the winning eggs being randomly distributed among single Cadbury Creme Eggs until April 9 this year.
"I HAVE ALREADY EATEN IT AND PEOPLE ARE SAYING ITS WORTH 10K!?" a follow-up tweet from Roman read before another which said: "PEOPLE SAYING ITS A PRANK OR THAT IVE TIPPEXED IT. I F******** WISH."
When one follower suggested his post was an ad, Roman was unimpressed and the son of Spandau Ballet and Pepsi and Shirlie stars Martin and Shirlie Kemp replied: "I WISH THIS WAS AN ADVERT." And when somebody asked: "What does it feel like to eat 10k?" Roman replied: "THIS IS NOT FUNNY. IT TASTES LIKE REGRET."
The only way Roman will have known how much he could have won would have been by phoning the number found on the winning ticket. He would then need to provide proof of the winning ticket while a picture of himself with the uneaten egg may have also been required to have been sent via email.
And it appears Roman hasn't had much luck of late as last week, the radio and TV presenter, 30, took to Twitter to share his misfortune with his followers and friends, after his bike was stolen. In a post shared at 6.34am, Roman said: "Happy Monday to the person that has stolen my bike."
