The father of two children has told the demands of his daughter well behave he got five million pounds national lottery,
Valdet Bujupi, from Barrow CambriaSaid he was returning home from a day out with his three-year-old daughter when she repeatedly asked for sweets.
On the third plea, Mr. Bujupi gave up and went towards a shop where he also decided to buy a Lucky Dip Ticket for EuroMillions.
The 44-year-old matched five main numbers and a lucky star – 27, 30, 31, 41, 43 and 05 and 08 – in the September 5 draw, giving her the prize of £524,043.10.
“We are very happy and our daughter, who was already a princess under her father, has now been promoted as queen,” Mr Bujupi said.
The family had been saving for a trip to New York since last Christmas, but there was always some obstacle standing in the way.
Abe Bujupi, 40, said she was cleaning the bathroom when her husband called her.
She was not impressed with having to take off her gloves to answer the phone, but was immediately perked up when her husband said: “Book New York, I’ve won the lottery.”
“Finally we can make New York and many other plans come true,” he said.
His 12-year-old son didn’t believe him when he shared the news.
“He thought it was a joke and only when I showed him the winnings on the lottery app did he agree to believe us,” Mr Bujupi said.
The couple also plan to buy a big gift for Mr Bujupi’s mother in Kosovo to “make her life a little easier”.
“Being able to help our mother enjoy her old age in comfort means a lot to both of us,” he said.
The family is now considering moving to a new house to give their children more space.
