Brit bags more than £60million in EuroMillions
A lucky Brit has bagged more than ?60million in this week's mega EuroMillions draw, National Lottery's new operator has confirmed.
The unnamed winner has claimed an incredible ?61,708,231 share of the ?123million jackpot prize, which has been split with another ticket-holder in Spain. Operator Allwyn - which recently took over from Camelot - has today confirmed it received a claim for the ?61.7million, won by a UK ticketholder in the draw on Tuesday (January 30, 2024).
The huge sum would make the mystery individual richer than Stormzy and former One Direction members Niall Horan and Zayn Malik. As with all major wins, the claim is due to go through a process of validation, which includes checks to ensure the Games Rules Terms and Conditions are met and that the integrity of The National Lottery is protected.
