The winning Daily Million Quick Pick ticket was bought at the Londis Shop on Westmoreland Street in Dublin city on the day of the draw.
The husband and wife, who wish to keep their win private, revealed how their new found fortune will enable them to buy a home.
They said: "We are a hard-working couple and we work every hour we can to give the best to our young family. This win won’t change our work ethic but it will make a huge difference.
"We are renting a house in Dublin at the moment and given the current housing prices, we probably would never have been in a position to buy."
They then added how the prize will impact on their lives.
They said: "The past two weeks has been an amazing experience, knowing that our lives are going to change for the better. This is a turning point for us all and we will make the most of our €1 million prize.
