So generous!

The family who bagged themselves the €175million Euro millions fortune have decided to split it 49 ways, reports Dublin Live.

This means that all of the children, grandchildren, and extended family of the winners could each pocket approximately €3.5million.

It's believed the Rogers family, originally from the Naul, North Dublin will make an announcement regarding the winnings today.

A family friend told the Irish Mirror last night: “It’s very generous of them but they decided with such a massive sum of money it was the right thing to do.

“As it stood each member of the syndicate would have got close to €20million each, which they thought was far too much for one person, so they decided to spread it around.

“Even as it stands everybody will now get over €3million, which is as much as an ordinary Irish Lotto jackpot, so I think there’s going to be a lot of happy people today.”

Fair play to them! An amazing thing to do.
