A UK ticket holder has claimed a EuroMillions jackpot of £111,709,000 by matching all five main numbers—11, 12, 15, 38, 49—and the Lucky Stars 10 and 12 in Friday’s draw. The National Lottery operator, Allwyn, said the win ranks as the 14th largest prize ever secured in the UK and marks the 21st time a payout of £100 million or more has been won domestically. Andy Carter, Allwyn’s senior winners’ adviser, said the company would support the winner on their "life-changing journey." This latest winner is the fourth UK player to claim a EuroMillions jackpot this year. In March, a ticket secured £181 million—the third-largest in UK history—before two UK winners shared a £125 million jackpot with a French player in April. The UK record for a EuroMillions jackpot stands at £195.7 million, won in July 2022 by an anonymous ticket-holder. In the UK, every EuroMillions entry automatically includes a unique "UK Millionaire Maker" code, entering players into an additional draw with a guaranteed £1 million winner in every draw. The jackpot is now an estimated £14 million. Some of the biggest lottery winnings in the UK include Joe and Jess Thwaite from Gloucester, who won £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket in May 2022. Colin and Chris Weir from Largs, North Ayrshire, won £161,653,000 on July 12, 2011, making them the biggest UK winners at the time. Colin used £2.5 million of his fortune to invest in his beloved Partick Thistle Football Club, which led to one of the stands at the stadium being named after him. He later acquired a 55 per cent shareholding in the club, which was to be passed into the hands of the local community upon his death. He died in December 2019, aged 71. The couple also set up the Weir Charitable Trust in 2013 and donated £1 million to the Scottish independence referendum in 2014. They divorced in the same year of Colin’s death.
