A couple have scooped £10,000-a-month for the next 30 years thanks to an incredible lottery jackpot win.
Laura Hoyle, 39, and Kirk Stevens, 37, won the ‘Set For Life’ top prize after entering the winning the March 1 draw.
But it was another two weeks before they checked their account and realised they had scooped the jackpot.
Kirk filmed the moment stunned Laura was told over the phone that their lives had changed forever.
She replied “you’re joking” as the call-handler confirmed they would get £10,000 every month for 30 years.
Laura, from Hucknall, Notts, had received an email telling her to check her online National Lottery account.
She said: “I was working from home that afternoon and stopped immediately to call Camelot.
“I was physically shaking as I told the lady, ‘I think I’ve won the lottery’.
“It was so weird saying those words. I kept thinking this must be a joke; it can’t be happening to us.”
Delighted Kirk popped open a bottle of Prosecco before Laura had even finished the call.
She said: “By the end of Friday evening, we had finished off four bottles of Prosecco between us.
“Kirk fell fast asleep but I couldn’t sleep a wink. My mind was still racing and I stayed awake all night.”
Laura quit her job last week but Kirk is staying at Rolls Royce, where he works as an aeronautical engineer.
The couple, who matched all five main numbers plus the Life Ball, plan to spend their time pursuing their hobbies and passions.
They have already splashed out on a Porsche Cayenne and are planning luxury holidays for after lockdown.
