Mystery man from Cardiff wins £1m in EuroMillions draw

An anonymous Cardiff resident who’s chosen to be known only as ‘Mr J’ has scooped an incredible £1m prize on a EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker draw. With the windfall now secured the man’s sights are set on purchasing a new family home and jetting off to “somewhere hot and sunny” for a well-deserved holiday.

In an extraordinary draw on December 31 last year the EuroMillions Millionaire Maker didn’t just create one but 10 UK millionaires overnight and Cardiff’s ‘Mr J’ was among them. Allwyn’s senior winners’ adviser Andy Carter delivered his congratulations and said: “Amazing news for Mr J who has landed a million-pound win. We hope he has a fantastic time in celebrating somewhere nice and hot. Huge congratulations!”
