The hard working mum from Tilbury in Essex is now planning on holidays for all the family, with New York and Turkey top of the list after the big win.

She said: "I got a message a couple of months ago to join. It was a strong message I received… a strong feeling.

"I wasn't following social media, and I don't watch normal TV. I was sitting here one day and it just came into my head, like a voice, telling me to join the Postcode Lottery.

"I questioned myself and thought I was feeling it for a reason and that night I joined. Now this just two months later."

Leyla said the win had come at the right time after a rough year. Her husband is facing surgery for a hernia soon.

She said: "It's come at such a needed time. We've had a really tough 12 months. My husband is quite unwell and needs some surgery.

"He's a really, really hard worker and I'm off a lot of the time with the kids.

"He just keeps going and works every weekend possible while not being in the best of health himself."
