An Irish Couple Who Lost Their Son In A Hit And Run Have Won €1.2m In The Lotto

A couple who tragically lost their son in a hit and run incident have won almost €1.2m in a lotto draw.

Colin and Eithne Bell lost their 26-year-old son Kevin in 2013 and have since gone on to set up a charity to help families fly home deceased loved ones from abroad.

The couple confirmed the news earlier today, saying that they felt the win was "Kevin looking after us".

Such deserving winners, we're absolutely delighted for them.
