The winning numbers were 11, 17, 28, 32 and 35 with Lucky Stars 05, 06. After this success, the lucky lottery player will be wealthier than footballer Harry Kane (£51m), according to the Sunday Times Rich List.

This is the second EuroMillions jackpot win in the UK so far this month, after another lucky ticket-holder won an incredible £111.7m in the draw on Friday June 2.
