Joanne Russell, a reader of Britain's Sun newspaper, won an unexpected £20,000 (approximately US$26,000) in a lottery, thanks to a prediction by the paper's celebrity psychic, Mystic Meg.

Russell, who was struggling financially, had almost given up hope after spending £10 (about US$16) on lottery tickets.

However, Mystic Meg's prediction in The Sun, stating “The Moon, which is in your prize chart, adds luck to lottery tickets," inspired Russell to enter her tickets in a second-chance draw.

To her amazement, the psychic's words proved true, leading to her significant win.

The story of Russell's unexpected fortune captivated readers, reigniting the age-old question: Can psychics truly foresee lottery results?
