Can you believe it? Despite a £120 million, ten-times rollover jackpot, the Euromillions Lottery jackpot has rolled again! No one matched all the winning numbers in the Euromillions results and so now Friday’s jackpot is up by another £16 million, an estimated £136 million for the weekend! The Tuesday Euromillions draw isn’t televised so don’t forget to check the results, the jackpot may have rolled over but there were plenty of winners in the draw!
In all, across all the European Euro Lottery countries, 3.1 million players walked away with a prize from last night’s Euromillions draw, and of that prize money, a staggering £4.5 million came to the UK, from the main draw alone.
The biggest winners in the main Euromillions draw were the five ticketholders to match five main balls and one lucky star. Of those players, one was from the UK and will collect £261,260. Another nine Euromillions players collect £48,381 for matching just five main balls, one of those players were from the UK.
If you are in the UK then you mustn’t forget to also check the Millionaire Raffle numbers, as the biggest UK prize winner was of course the £1 million Millionaire Raffle winner. Right now there are several Millionaire Raffle prizes sitting unclaimed and so it’s really important you check yours alongside the Euromillions results.
The next Euromillions Lottery draw is on Friday evening, and worth a staggering £136 million! Before then is the UK Lotto, this evening, and boasting a modest £4.5 million jackpot. Lottery tickets are on sale now for both draws so don’t forget yours this week!
