Lucky UK ticket holder claims £184m EuroMillions Lottery winnings

A lucky person in the UK with the winning ticket has now claimed the £184m EuroMillions cash, Camelot said.

The winner is the UK’s biggest ever National Lottery winner.

Camelot confirmed it had received a claim on Wednesday for the £184,262,899.10 EuroMillions jackpot prize won by a single UK ticket-holder in the draw on Tuesday.

The winning EuroMillions numbers were 3, 25, 27, 28 and 29, plus the Lucky Star numbers 4 and 9.

The claim will now go through a validation process to ensure terms and conditions are met.

Once the ticket has been validated, the winner will decide whether to go public with their winnings or to remain anonymous.

Camelot’s Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery, said: “This is absolutely incredible news. Last night saw history made with the biggest ever National Lottery prize won by a single UK ticket-holder, and we’re ecstatic that we’ve now received a claim.

“Our focus now is on supporting the ticket-holder through the process and helping them start to enjoy their truly life-changing and record-breaking win.”

This is the second EuroMillions jackpot won in the UK this year.

The £109 million jackpot from the draw on February 4 was claimed a few days later.

But the winner chose not to go public.

The record for biggest UK National Lottery win was previously held by an anonymous ticket-holder who banked £170 million in October 2019.
