A claim has been staked for Friday’s £171million EuroMillions jackpot, National Lottery operator Camelot said. One lucky UK ticket-holder scooped the £171,815,297.80 prize – the third biggest National Lottery win.
It means they are instantly richer than singers Harry Styles, who is worth an estimated £100m, and Adele, worth an estimated £150m, according to the Sunday Times Rich List. Camelot’s Andy Carter, senior winners’ adviser at The National Lottery, said: “What an amazing year for UK EuroMillions players.
“We are delighted to have received a claim for the third biggest ever win and look forward to supporting the ticket-holder and helping them to start to enjoy their truly life-changing win.”
