You could be in for a chance to be the UK's biggest-ever lottery winner this week.
Tuesday's Euromillions draw will have £186m up for grabs - the equivalent to winning the Wimbledon title 93 times. To win the money, a UK National Lottery ticket-holder must match all the numbers in Tuesday's draw, if they do so, they will break the current top record.
In fact, the winner would instantly become richer than Harry Styles, who is worth an estimated £100 million, as well as Adele, worth an estimated £150 million, according to the Sunday Times Rich list. The winnings would also capsize the previous record of £184 million which was won by Joe and Jess Thwaite less than two months ago.

Andy Carter, senior winners’ adviser at The National Lottery, said: “I knew my team had been busy with big winners but I didn’t realise what an amazing run of EuroMillions luck the UK has had.
“It’s great to travel to every corner of the country making new millionaires, and we know that EuroMillions makes the biggest winners. These dream-come-true jackpots not only transform the lives of the winners but also enable them to support the friends, family and communities around them.
“I hope we are again celebrating reaching the top of the league table after Tuesday’s draw and we look forward to supporting any big UK winners we create.” So far, there have only been 14 UK national Lottery winners who have gone home with over £100 million so far.
EuroMillion players are being urged to buy their tickets before 7.30pm on Tuesday to be in with a chance to grab some life-changing money. Camelot have noted that the jackpot will be capped at 230 million euros, which the operator estimated will be reached in the draw this Friday, July 8, if no one wins on Tuesday.
