The EuroMillions jackpot has skyrocketed to an estimated £199 million ahead of Tuesday’s draw, offering a once-in-a-lifetime chance for a single lucky player to become the UK’s richest lottery winner ever.
National Lottery operator Allwyn confirmed that with no winners in Friday’s EuroMillions draw, the colossal prize is now on track to break all UK records. The previous highest jackpot claimed was £195 million, won by an anonymous ticket-holder in July 2022.
Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, expressed excitement about the upcoming draw: “We are on the verge of seeing the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen. If a single UK ticket-holder wins the £199 million jackpot this Tuesday, they will instantly surpass famous names like Dua Lipa and Harry Kane to claim the top spot among National Lottery winners.”
