Two UK residents scoop £45m in Euromillions lottery win

After many weeks of Euromillions rollovers two lucky lottery ticket holders have won the massive £90m Euromillions jackpot pool.  It is now known that the £90 Euromillions jackpot will be split between two separate individuals from the UK and not a syndicate.  The two lottery winners are now set to be the biggest UK lottery winners for sometime with their jackpot prizes of £45m each. The winning lottery tickets both featured the correct numbers drawn of 11, 19, 34, 43, 45, the lucky star numbers drawn in the Euromillions game were 5 and 9.

It is not known who the Euromillions lottery winners are as yet, but a report on the BBC news site stated that one poor man in County Londonderry has been receiving lots of phone calls congratulating him on his lucky Euromillions windfall even though he claims that he is not one of the Euromillions winners.  Mr Gormley who lives in Maghera said in a statement to the BBC that because of the amount of misinformed well-wishers congratulating him, that his ‘head is fried’.  Although Mr Gormley may not be one of the lucky winners the fact remains that there are two very rich people out there, in fact the pair are now so rich that they will immediately be on the UK’s richest list alongside the likes of Chris Evans and Michael Caine.

The two very rich individuals are believed to be in the process of collecting their winning Euromillions cash today from the National Lottery HQ after having their claims verified.  An article published on the Mail online website covers stories of two previous winners and how they have been affected by the life changing lottery wins.  One, Angela Kelly feels that she has benefited substantially from the life changing win, unlike another Dolores McNamara who won £77m four years ago and has become a virtual recluse after bad publicity and her worries about being kidnapped.  It seems that problems can be felt even if you don’t win a massive lottery win, certainly if Mr Gormley’s experience is anything to go by!
