UK ticket-holder claims £25 million EuroMillions jackpot

A single UK ticket-holder has come forward to claim their £25 million EuroMillions jackpot, which was the second won in the country in a week, The National Lottery said.

The ticket-holder won £25,701,358 in Friday’s draw, which comes after another UK ticket-holder won £26 million in the draw on October 3.

That prize was also claimed.

But, there are two missing millionaires from recent Lotto draws.

On October 4, a single ticket-holder won the Lotto jackpot of £10,633,323. They matched all six main numbers in the draw, 06, 08, 12, 33, 49, 59, to walk away with the jackpot. This ticket was purchased in retail.

And on October 8, the Lotto jackpot was won again, when a single ticket matched the six main numbers 02, 21, 42, 48, 56, 57 and it is now worth £2 million.

Both prizes are waiting to be claimed.

Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery, said: “It’s been an amazing couple of weeks with big multi-million pound prizes being won every few nights.

“We will look after the two EuroMillions winners and help them start to enjoy their amazing win.

“We hope to meet the Lotto winners soon, once we have a claim. So check those tickets and emails – remember it could be you!”
