A mystery woman, known only as Mrs. B from Essex has won £1,000,000 on The National Lottery after matching five main numbers and the Bonus Ball in the Lotto draw on Wednesday 18 September. She plans to use her winnings to go on holiday.
The Essex local, who played a Lucky Dip via the National Lottery app, has become one of over eight million players that win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games. Interactive winners have the opportunity to release their name, remain anonymous
or like this winner, release some details through partial publicity.
Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery, said, “Wow, this is wonderful news for Mrs. B, who has become a millionaire overnight.! We hope she enjoys her holiday. Huge congratulations!”
