UK's biggest ever lottery winners to reveal themselves after scooping £184m jackpot

The lucky couple who won £184 million on the EuroMillions lottery will be named publicly tomorrow. The pair, who are understood to be from Gloucestershire, broke the record for the highest amount of money won in a lottery game in the UK by more than £14 million and have understandably been celebrating their huge win ever since.

Before the pair won the eye-watering sum - more than the estimated worth of singer Adele (£130 million) and Black Sabbath's Ozzy Osbourne and his music manager wife Sharon (£150 million) - the previous record for a lottery win in the UK was £170 million, won by a single ticketholder in October 2019. That winner chose to stay anonymous - but the new record-holders have decided to spill all on their life-changing win.

The pair are set to talk to the press tomorrow (Thursday, May 19) and will share how they felt when they realised their numbers had come up in the draw - and what they intend to spend their winnings on, reports The Mirror.
