FDJ Confirms French EuroMillions Player Won €1 Million Twice, Including on His Remarriage Day

FDJ detailed the rare double My Million result in a September 9 YouTube video.

Overview

  • Both payouts came from the My Million code linked to EuroMillions tickets, with wins two years apart.
  • The player checked a ticket while walking his dog between the town hall ceremony and the reception and discovered the second €1 million.
  • He later phoned FDJ from his honeymoon in Venice, reportedly saying, "It's still me, I won again."
  • My Million is a complementary draw that assigns a code to tickets and guarantees a €1 million prize to the holder of the winning code in each draw.
  • The winner remains anonymous, with national outlets reporting the account on September 16 based on FDJ's video.
