A man from Kent is set to be mortgage-free after scooping £1 million in a EuroMillions draw.

The mystery winner, known only as Mr A, entered the UK Millionaire Maker competition on April 26.

The Kent resident, who played a Lucky Dip via the National Lottery app, was one of 10 people to become millionaires overnight.

Mr A says he will use his winnings to pay off his mortgage.

He also joins Mr P from Cheshire, Mrs H from Surrey and Mr G from Dorset who all won the seven-figure-sum in the draw.

Andy Carter from The National Lottery said: “Wow, amazing news for Mr A. He can now look forward to being mortgage-free. Huge congratulations!”

By playing any National Lottery game, players generate £30 million each week for National Lottery-funded projects.

This money helps fund projects across the country, with more than 690,000 grants – supporting projects both big and small – having been made to date.
