A lucky EuroMillions ticket holder has scooped up a whopping £1,000,000 jackpot in a “fantastic” end to 2024.

Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery, said: “Wow, we are so excited for Mr H, who has landed a fantastic million-pound win. Huge congratulations.”

Mr H is not the only lottery player ending their year on a high following a life-changing win.

Last week, a West Sussex woman became an overnight millionaire after scooping a life-changing prize in the EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker draw.

The lucky winner, known only as Mrs J, plans to use her newfound fortune to purchase a new home.

Like Mr H, Mrs J won the sum on November 22, and she also banked an additional £2.60 in the draw.

Whilst Mr H played online, Mrs J secured her win through a Lucky Dip ticket, which she purchased via the National Lottery App.

Like many winners, Mrs J chose partial publicity, allowing some details of her win to be shared while maintaining a degree of privacy.
