The winning numbers for EuroMillions’ biggest ever jackpot have been revealed as one lucky ticket-holder is yet to claim their prize.
The £209m National Lottery winning numbers are 10, 21, 30, 42, 45. The Lucky Stars are 01 and 09 and the Thunderball is 03.
The winner would top the last record prize of £195m, which was claimed by an anonymous player on 19 July 2022.
Two months earlier, Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, won a then-record-breaking £184m with a Lucky Dip ticket for the draw on 10 May 2022.
The UK’s third biggest win came after an anonymous ticket-holder scooped the £177 million jackpot in the draw on 26 November last year.
Mr Thwaite woke up early to an email telling him he had won. “I looked it up and saw we’d won. I saw how much and I didn’t know what to do. I couldn’t go back to sleep,” he said.
“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!”
Ms Thwaite was in disbelief when she heard the news, insisting either her husband had made a mistake or The National Lottery was wrong.
“The win gives us time to dream, which we haven’t had before. We’ve had one week to think about this and we now have time to share lots of experiences and go on adventures with our family and friends,” she said at the time.
It would be the third UK EuroMillions jackpot this year, after one ticket-holder came forward for their £83m prize in January, and another scooped a £65m jackpot last month.
No-one won the £182 million EuroMillions jackpot on Tuesday, meaning the top prize rolled over into Friday’s draw.
Speaking ahead of the draw, Andy Carter, senior winners’ adviser at Allwyn, said: “This Friday night promises to be a massive one for EuroMillions players, as the country’s biggest ever winner could be made.
“This colossal amount of money would make any lucky ticket-holder richer than some of the UK’s biggest and richest names, such as Harry Styles, Adele and Harry Kane.”
