Lucky winner claims huge £7.4M National Lottery jackpot less than a month before Christmas

A lucky player has claimed the whopping £7.4million prize from this weekend's Lotto draw.

The jackpot winner stepped forward straight after learning of their win, less than a month before Christmas.

The draw, which took place on Saturday, saw the player match all six winning numbers - 01, 03, 05, 17, 50, 52.

They were the only jackpot winner, so will take the entire £7,444,049 for themselves.

This multi-million pound National Lottery win makes it four jackpot wins scooped by lucky Lotto players in November alone.

One lucky ticket-holder scooped the £12.8m ‘Must Be Won’ jackpot in the Lotto draw on November 2, and another took home the £3.8m jackpot on November 5.

The third big win this month was in the draw on November 12, where the £4m Lotto jackpot was won by a single ticket-holder.

As with all major prizes, the claim will now go through the process of validation, which includes checks to ensure the game's terms and conditions are adhered to.

Once the ticket has been validated and paid, the ticket-holder will then decide whether or not to go public and share their news.

Camelot’s Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at The National Lottery, said, “We’re delighted that this fantastic Lotto jackpot has been claimed.

"It’s been a fantastic month of winning for Lotto players, with a total of over £28m in jackpot prize money having been won by lucky Lotto players in November.

“Our focus is now on supporting this jackpot ticket-holder through the process and helping them start to enjoy their truly life-changing win."
