Brit EuroMillions ticket holder has 'amazing night' as they win enormous £171m jackpot

One lucky Briton has scooped up the enormous £171million EuroMillions jackpot - making them richer than Harry Styles.

Tonight's winning numbers were 14, 15, 22, 35, 48 and the Lucky Stars were 03 and 08.

While tonight's EuroMillions prize is life-changing, it's still short of the huge record-breaking £195m jackpot which was won by another UK ticket holder earlier this year.

One lucky Brit walked away nearly £200million richer after landing the biggest National Lottery win of all time according to Camelot.

However, tonight's winner is now richer than Harry Styles who has a net worth of £83million, Dua Lipa (£43.5m) and Louis Tomlinson (£47m).

"This winner has just become the third biggest National Lottery winner of all time and the sixth UK EuroMillions jackpot winner this year alone. Players are urged to check their tickets and to give us a call if they think they are tonight’s lucky winner.

“Thanks to National Lottery players, more than £30M is generated every week for Good Causes across the country.

"This supports everything from local projects making a difference where you live, to our nations' athletes at the recent Commonwealth Games.”

Earlier this year, Joe and Jess Thwaite from Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, who took home the prize of £184,262,899.

For those who have been lucky enough to win some cash in the past, what they've spent it on may surprise you.

The poll of real life National Lottery big winners revealed that 37 per cent of them have indulged in a ride-on lawnmower, with 34 per cent admitting to spending between £2,000 - £5,000 on the lust-list item.

Among the lawn loving winners are Wayne and Desiree Home whose luck changed in 2015 when the Kent couple scooped £1million on the EuroMillions UK Millionaire Maker.

One ticket matched the winning numbers 06, 23, 27, 40, 41 plus the Lucky Star numbers 02 and 12, to win exactly £195,707,000.00 – making them the biggest jackpot winner of all time.
