A mystery EuroMillions winner from Cheshire is now a millionaire after scooping a whopping £1 million prize.

Known only as Mr R from Cheshire, he has won his huge prize in the “UK Millionaire Maker” draw in December.

The Cheshire resident, who is remaining anonymous, has become one of over eight million players that win each week on The National Lottery’s range of games.

Interactive winners have a chance 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, “Incredible news for Mr R for winning this fantastic prize.

“He has become a millionaire overnight – congratulations!”

Players can buy tickets in retail outlets, play online at national-lottery.co.uk or by downloading the National Lottery app.

Playing online via the website or app means your ticket is automatically checked, and you get an email notification if you win a prize.

You can also scan retail tickets on the National Lottery app to check if you’re a winner.

Players can buy tickets for all of The National Lottery’s draw-based games including EuroMillions, Lotto, Set For Life and Thunderball.

Once they have registered and set up an account, they can also play a range of online Instant Win Games.

The National Lottery generates around £30 million every week for funded projects.

The money has helped fund projects across the nation, with over 685,000 grants.
