The £100,000 national bingo jackpot was claimed by a 29-year-old mother of three from Colchester on Sunday, September 2nd, reports National Bingo.
But the winner was not the only one in tears, as she explained to the game's operating body.
"I just put my head in my hands and sobbed - my auntie cried too but my mum just sat there very happy for me," she revealed.
"It's all still going round in my head at the moment, but I'm very pleased."
Meanwhile, a 61-year-old Lossiemouth player also had reason to celebrate recently with a win on the national game.
Completing a full house in 47 numbers, the victor shared the £20,000 jackpot equally with a Coventry player who also achieved bingo on the same number, National Bingo states.
