A young couple are celebrating today after scooping a £5 million (US$9.6 million) Lottery jackpot.

The couple, who have a five-month-old baby, won the early Christmas present on the Christmas Eve Lotto Superdraw.

Lottery officials are due to reveal further details about the couple, from Porth, south Wales, at a press conference at the Vale of Glamorgan Country Club later this morning.

But a Camelot spokeswoman said that the 20-year-old man is a software tester and his 21-year-old partner is a home-maker.

The couple will be planning their first purchases after being presented with a cheque by Welsh rugby international Gareth Edwards.

CASH Only

So we have a couple in their early 20s who will collect in lump sum, as opposed to a 94-year-old woman who is forced to receive annuity payments.
