A lucky lottery player from North Yorkshire is celebrating a EuroMillions win.
A man in his 50s won £68,063.80 in the EuroMillions Match 5 draw on Tuesday, February 10, just days before Valentine’s Day.
The lucky winner, who plays two or three Lucky Dip lines each week, marked the occasion with a celebratory meal with his wife.
The winner said: "I’ve never won anything before, this is just amazing.
"I’ll celebrate this win with my wife."
Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at Allwyn, the operator of The National Lottery, congratulated the winner on his timely windfall, saying: "What wonderful news and what perfect timing with Valentine’s Day just around the corner.
"We hope this win brings a wonderful year ahead for you and your wife."
Since its launch, the National Lottery has raised more than £53 billion for good causes across the UK.
Each week, around £33 million is generated for National Lottery-funded projects, supporting everything from the arts and sport sectors to empowering local community groups and preserving iconic British landmarks.
Tickets can be purchased and checked online, via the National Lottery app, which also allows players to scan their tickets to see if they have won.
