The man – who wishes to remain anonymous – said he “kept double checking and triple checking the ticket all week” when he realised he won the Jackpot of €3,987,540.
“I’ve had over a week to process the win and still can’t wrap my head around it!
"I kept double checking and triple checking the ticket all week to make sure I hadn’t made a mistake, but today, the ticket was confirmed, and I nearly keeled over when I received my cheque and seen all the numbers. It's the most surreal feeling ever.
“I’m determined to share this prize with my nearest and dearest to spread some joy.”
His winning ticket was bought in Bowe’s EuroSpar in Duleek village.
"I’ve already given some of my friends some money to help change their lives a little and I’m in the process of dividing the remainder of the prize out amongst my family.
"I’m can’t wait to hop on a plane and take a nice long holiday in the sun over the next couple of months to really let the win really sink in!” he said.
