‘I won despite my lover saying he wasn’t ‘gullible enough’ to play’
A MUM whose partner told her he wasn’t “gullible enough” to play the lottery has won £1m on the EuroMillions.
Holly Saul scooped the prize in the UK draw after her father-in-law reminded her to purchase a ticket.
The 29-year-old, from Cambridge, recalled bursting into tears of joy when she was told she had won.
The news followed just hours after her partner of eight years, Ben Lowther, 38, had said earlier: “I’m not gullible enough to play the lottery.”
Holly, who has two children, said: “We were both so shocked that I decided the only sensible option was to pour myself a G&T and Ben a Guinness.
“Then we sat in the garden for an hour staring into space, looking at each other and giggling like children. It was the most surreal and most wonderful time.
“What’s even better, I’ll forever tease Ben about his cheeky comment.”
