A man who previously won a million euros in the MyMillion draw a few years ago had another stroke of luck on his wedding day. Two years after his first win, while taking his dog for a walk between the wedding ceremony and reception, he found his MyMillions ticket in his pocket. Upon checking it, he realized he had won another million euros. Excitedly, he and his wife went on their honeymoon to Venice, where he called to share the news of his second win.
This fortunate individual, described as lucky in both games and love, managed to win a total of two million euros within a span of two years. The MyMillion code, an additional draw automatically entered when purchasing a EuroMillions ticket, has produced over 4.3 billion winners since February 2004. France has seen around 29% of the winners, while the United Kingdom follows closely behind with 22% of winning tickets.
Both France and the UK have had an equal number of jackpot winners at 132 each, with Spain not far behind at 123 winners. Recently, a Spaniard won a substantial £56,681,384.00 jackpot. The largest recorded EuroMillions jackpot was €371 million in 2023, shared among 90 fortunate Italians. Earlier this year, an Irish player won a massive €250 million jackpot.
A family syndicate from Ireland, who chose to remain anonymous, celebrated their win by planning to continue simple routines like having sandwiches for lunch. They expressed their intention to stay in Ireland and not let the win change their lifestyle. The family is excited about the possibility of fulfilling their travel dreams with the newfound fortune. Upon realizing they had won after seeing the jackpot was claimed in Ireland, they were in disbelief and overjoyed by their significant win.
