From Golden Ticket to Golden Life – LottoStar’s Fortune Frenzy Grand Finale Winner is Crowned!
A thrilling finale. A room filled with hope and nerves. And a cake changed our R1 Million winner’s life forever.

Jacqueline, a devoted single mother of three from White River, Mpumalanga, walked away with the R1 Million grand prize at LottoStar’s Fortune Frenzy competition on Jacaranda FM and her story is nothing short of inspiring.

  • When you received one of 120 Golden Ticket – what was it like knowing you had a shot at R1 Million?
    I was so excited when I got the email! Just knowing I had a chance was already a win for me. It felt like I was one step closer to something big.
  • What was going through your mind during each round at the Grand Finale?
    I was really nervous! But when I made it past the second round, I was just grateful to still be in the running. It all felt surreal.
  • When it came down to the final three and you had first pick — did you think your cake was the one?
    Not at all! I picked the cake behind me because it was on my left… and I’m left-handed. That’s it. I never imagined it would be the one!
  • How did it feel when you found out you were the R1 Million winner?
    I was over the moon – all that was running through my mind is how I was going to change my life.
  • What are you planning to do first with your R1 Million prize?
    As a single mother of three living in a small two-bedroom house, this is truly life-changing. I’ll be catching up on bills, renovating our home, treating my children, helping those in need, and supporting family. Life won’t be completely different, but it’s definitely getting an upgrade.
  • Has winning changed how you see your future or what’s possible for you now?
    Definitely. My future looks brighter. Life just got a whole lot easier and full of possibilities.
  • What are your favourite LottoStar game?
    5 Lucky Lions and Hot Hot Fruit.
  • What would you say to someone entering a LottoStar competition for the first time?
    Go for it! Enter, register and bet. Your win could be just a few steps away – just like mine was.
  • Any words for LottoStar for making this unforgettable moment happen?
    Thank you, LottoStar, from the bottom of my heart. You’ve changed my life and given me a new beginning. I will never forget this experience – it gave me hope, joy, and a reason to believe again

Jacqueline’s story reminds us that sometimes it takes one moment to change everything.

For this single mom of three, it’s not just about the money – it’s about more room to breathe, dream, and live. Her win brought comfort, joy, and a brand-new beginning.
