A Moray couple have become Scotland's newest millionaires.

Michael Innes, from Buckie, scooped a million pounds on a National Lottery Instant Win game.

He'll share the prize with his fiancee Megan Fulton.

The lucky pair say they'll use the cash to buy a house.

Michael said: “I could not believe it when I saw we had won the £1,000,000 prize and this is fantastic as it allows us to have the wedding we want rather than the wedding we would have had to settle for.”

“We live in my mum and dad’s house in Buckie while they are based in Tenerife.

"The win will also give us the opportunity to look for a house of our own and start married life in an entirely new situation.

“Megan is a student nurse with exams next week, so hopefully she will be able to focus on those after we get used to what the win will mean for us and the family.

"I have spoken to my mum and dad today by phone and they too are absolutely thrilled with the news.”
