Someone has made a claim for the record £195m Euromillions jackpot which was up for grabs in last night's (July 19) draw. Camelot has confirmed that a ticket-holder based in the UK has made the claim.
The claim will now be scrutinised by a series of checks before the huge sum of money is paid out. No further information about the claimant has been issued and it will be up to the individual or syndicate whether they go public if they are deemed the winners.
Following last night's Euromillions draw, which saw the numbers 6, 23, 27, 40, 41 come out alongside Lucky Star numbers 2 and 12, it was reported that one ticket had won. The jackpot of £195,707,000 is a record, beating the previous landmark of £184m won in May by Gloucester couple Joe and Jess Thwaite.
