EuroMillions: Single ticket-holder could win UK's biggest lottery prize tonight

The jackpot has rolled over to an estimated £208m, after Tuesday's £199m draw - which also would have been a record-breaking amount - had no winners.

The winner would instantly become richer than Adele and Harry Styles, while also bagging the top spot on the National Lottery's biggest wins list.

Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: "We are now on the verge of potentially creating the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen."

The previous largest prize pot was won by an anonymous UK ticket-holder, who took home £195m on 19 July 2022.

Just two months earlier, Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, won £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket. At the time, Joe was a communications sales engineer, and Jess ran a hairdressing salon with her sister.

Mr Thwaite said he woke up at 5am as usual, and checked his phone to see an email saying, "Good news, you have won a prize".

But he did not immediately wake his wife, choosing to let her sleep in.

"I saw how much and I didn't know what to do," Mr Thwaite said.

"I couldn't go back to sleep, I didn't want to wake Jess up, so I just laid there for what seemed like forever. I spent some time searching for property with no budget limit, which was a novelty!"

When his wife woke up, she assumed the National Lottery app was wrong.

In February last year, Richard and Debbie Nuttall were revealed as the UK winners of a £61m EuroMillions jackpot - who at first thought they had only won £2.60.

The couple from Lancashire split the £123m prize with a winner in Spain.

This year's biggest prize, of £83m went to a UK winner in January.
