Asda worker becomes millionaire after popping to shop for bread and milk

An Asda worker became a millionaire after making an "on a whim" decision while buying bread and milk.

Karl Ward and his soon-to-be wife Eleanor Land nipped in to the ASDA where Karl worked for some essentials when they decided to buy a EuroMillions ticket for the draw that night. The couple's lives changed overnight and they are now £1million richer, meaning they are finally able to pay for their dream wedding and buy a home of their own.

Despite being together for 20 years and engaged for 15 years, Ellie, 41, and Karl, 43, have been putting off their wedding due to lack of funds and spending their savings on their family instead.
