‘DESTROYED LIFE’ Lotto winner Margaret Loughrey
IRELAND has been swept up in a tide of excitement as one fortunate EuroMillions punter clinched an astonishing €250 million jackpot, claiming the throne as the country's largest ever lottery win.
Lotto chiefs counselled the overjoyed winner with a statement: “Stay calm, get independent legal and financial advice and contact us as soon as they can.”
