Eye-watering £191MILLION Euromillions lottery jackpot could be yours tonight... making you the biggest lotto winner EVER
AN eye-watering £191 million EuroMillions lottery jackpot could be yours tonight.
As the prize reaches the maximum allowed by National Lottery, the life-changing sum will make one lucky player the biggest lotto winner ever.
No one had the right numbers on Friday night's draw which meant its jackpot went unclaimed.
Now the sensational score of £191 million is up for grabs again tonight - but even players who falls short of the five main numbers and two lucky stars can still come away laughing.
The jackpot has hit the maximum of €230 million, or around £191 million - so can't climb any higher and must be won, according to the National Lottery website.
Runners up with five main numbers and only one lucky star stand to win £130,554.30.
Those with just five main numbers could find themselves with an extra £13,561.20 in their bank account.
Four main stars and two lucky stars will collect a prize of £844.70.
At the moment, the country's biggest winners are Joe and Jess Thwaite.
The Gloucestershire couple were handed a record-breaking £184m jackpot back in May.
Despite their astonishing new wealth, one of their first purchases was a second-hand Volvo.
The second-biggest win was awarded to an anonymous ticket-holder who claimed £170m in 2019.
Colin and Chris Weir from Largs, North Ayrshire, won £161m in 2011, while Adrian and Gillian Bayford claimed just over £148m in 2012.
A ticket-holder from French Polynesia claimed £184m - just like the Thwaites - in October last year.
The young woman said: "I want to explore the world with my family, especially looking for snow, because I’ve never seen that before."
Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery, said, “Friday will be huge – with an incredible estimated EuroMillions jackpot of £191M up for grabs, we could be celebrating our biggest-ever winner!
"Think of all the amazing communities that could benefit from a win of this size. Players should get their tickets early to be in with a chance of winning in this amazing draw."
Although no one claimed the top prize tonight, a Brit did become an instant millionaire.
