Two lucky people in Hampshire won £1m in the EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker last month. 

A mystery man known only as 'Mr. H' and his best friend the prize in on Tuesday 5 December, 2023. 

The Hampshire man and his best friend,who are in a syndicate together, have become two 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 Mr. H, release some details through partial publicity.

Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery, said, “Incredible news for Mr. H and his best friend for winning this fantastic prize.

"They have become a million pounds richer overnight - congratulations!”

For every EuroMillions line played, UK players automatically receive a EuroMillions Millionaire Maker code printed on their ticket creating a millionaire in every draw.

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

This money helps fund projects across the nation, with over 685,000 grants – supporting projects both big and small – having been made across the UK to date and over £48BN having been raised for Good Causes.
