A mystery woman has bagged a million pounds overnight after winning a National Lottery draw.
Known only as Miss. N, the lucky Kent resident scored a whopping £1,000,000 prize in the EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker on Friday, April 21.
The draw guarantees to create a millionaire in every draw but this special event saw 20 UK millionaires made in just one night.
Miss. N plans to pay off her mortgage, save some of her winnings, and have fun with the rest after becoming one of those lucky winners.
She played a Lucky Dip via the National Lottery app, becoming one of more than eight million players to win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games.
Interactive winners are able to release their name, remain anonymous, or, like Miss. N, release some details through partial publicity.
‘She has become a million pounds richer overnight and can look forward to having lots of fun with her winnings!’
Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery, said: “What incredible news for Miss. N for winning this fantastic prize.
“She has become a million pounds richer overnight and can look forward to having lots of fun with her winnings!”
Thanks to National Lottery players, £30 million is generated each week for National Lottery-funded projects.
This money helps support causes ranging from the local charity making a difference where you live, to helping the nation's athletes win medals at last summer’s Commonwealth Games.
To date, more than £47 billion has been raised for National Lottery Good Causes, with more than 670,000 individual grants awarded.
