It caped a remarkable week for lottery players, coming just days after a separate winner took home £7.8million in Wednesday’s “must be won” draw.
In total, four new millionaires were minted from Saturday’s results alone.
Wednesday’s upcoming draw will offer an estimated jackpot of £2million, according to lottery operator Allwyn.
Andy Carter, Allwyn’s senior winners’ adviser, described the back-to-back jackpot wins as “incredible”.
He noted that two major prizes had been claimed within just seven days.
Mr Carter said: “This lucky winner follows a lucky player pocketing £7.8m in the Wednesday ‘must be won’ draw.”
He also highlighted the three additional million-pound winners from Saturday’s results.
Mr Carter added: “If that’s not enough, a further three millionaires were made tonight after matching five main numbers and the bonus ball. What a wonderful week for winning.”
