Susan Boyle has moved into her new five-bedroom home in West Lothian, Scotland.
Susan Boyle has moved house.
The Scottish singer - who rose to fame on UK TV talent show 'Britain's Got Talent' - has moved out of her council house and into a five-bedroom, ÂŁ300,000 home in West Lothian.
Fears had been raised for her security in her old house when an intruder was found, leading to plans for her to move into a newer home.
Susan's brother Gerry recently complained the 'I Dreamed A Dream' singer lived on just ÂŁ300 a week, despite having sold 8.5 million copies of her debut album and reportedly earned ÂŁ10 million, meaning she was unable to furnish her new property.
He said: "Her millions are ring-fenced but Susan has no concept of money. She was extremely distressed."
"Susan said to me, 'I've been told I get ÂŁ300 a week because I'm a novice. I don't have the money to go and buy the furniture.'
"She should be able to walk in the bank anywhere and say she wants ÂŁ50,000 cash. That may not be advisable, but it would be her choice because it's her money."
