Britain’s Biggest Ever Lottery Winner Receives £184M

Britain’s biggest ever lottery winner has come forward to claim the £184 million EuroMillions jackpot.

One lucky player somewhere in the UK matched all seven EuroMillions numbers and became the country’s biggest ever National Lottery winner yesterday with a jackpot of £184,262,899.10.

And it was confirmed just after lunchtime today that someone had come forward to claim the life-changing prize.  

They will now become one of the nation’s 1,000 richest people, worth more than stars like Robbie Williams, Sir Tom Jones and Ed Sheeran. 

Once the ticket has been validated and paid, the ticket-holder will then decide whether or not to go public and share their news. Until then, it will not be confirmed where in the country the winning ticket was bought.

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.”
