Live Euromillions results for Tuesday, August 12: The winning numbers from £185m draw and Thunderball
The Euromillions draw takes place every Tuesday and Friday and a ticket costs £2.50. That includes automatic entry into the UK Millionaire Maker draw which creates new UK millionaires every week. The overall jackpot can rise to €190m (approximately £167m).
If you entered the Thunderball you stand to win up to £500,000. You can check your numbers below. Good luck!
How many numbers do you need to win?
If you have got two numbers or one number and two lucky stars or better then you are a winner. Players must match all five main numbers and two lucky star numbers to claim the jackpot. The Thunderball draw was also made tonight and the results will also be displayed below. The Thunderball draw takes place at 8pm and the Euromillions draw takes place at around 8.15pm.
In May 2022 Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, became the UK's biggest-ever Euromillions winners after netting £184m with a lucky dip ticket. Their record did not last long, though, after another UK winner came forward in July 2022 to claim a jackpot of £195m. However they have not gone public. Prior to Mr and Mrs Thwaite's win the previous record was held by an anonymous winner who scooped £170m in October 2019. On June 4, 2021, a ticketholder in the UK scooped the £111m jackpot in the Friday-night draw, matching all seven numbers to become the country's ninth-biggest lottery winner ever at that stage.
In June 2019 a single ticketholder in the UK won £123m in the Tuesday night Euromillions draw. It was the third-biggest Euromillions jackpot in the UK since the draw launched in 2004. It meant they instantly became as rich as Fifty Shades of Grey author EL James (£127m) and Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page (£125m). Euromillions is played in nine European countries.

Time is running out to experience the dark obsession that gripped a paranoid king and plunged Scotland into its most infamous witch trials. Witchfinder - The King's Crusade enters its final fortnight at Edinburgh Dungeons, with the spine-tingling show concluding on 31st August. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad The immersive experience has been captivating visitors since 28th June, plunging them into the shadowy world of the North Berwick Witch Trials where King James VI's paranoia reached fever pitch. Edinburgh Dungeons Guests must navigate the treacherous waters of 16th-century Scotland - will they join the witch hunter's crusade or risk being branded as practitioners of the dark arts themselves? The North Berwick Witch Trials of 1590-1592 saw King James VI personally interrogate suspected witches, convinced they had used sorcery to shipwreck his bride's voyage from Denmark. The trials marked a particularly sinister period in Scottish history, with the King's obsession leading to some of the most notorious witch hunts in European history. Lee Phillips, General Manager at Edinburgh Dungeon, said: "King James VI was utterly consumed by his mission to root out witchcraft from Scotland, and his paranoia has made for absolutely gripping theatre. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'These final two weeks are your last chance to face the witch-hunting monarch's obsession and discover whether you'll survive his dark crusade. Time is running out to experience one of Scottish history's most chilling chapters." Will you survive the war? The King's final crusade awaits... but not for much longer.

Diego Velazquez sold ahead of Jacques le Marois start
He will remain in training with Aidan O'Brien for the remainder of the 2025 season, with a view to retiring to the National Stud in Newmarket at the end of the year. He will wear the famous silks of the late Robert Sangster in the Marois. A Group-race winner at two, three and four, most recently in the Minstrel Stakes at the Curragh, Diego Velazquez will bid for a first Group One success at Deauville this weekend, where he will be ridden by Christophe Soumillon. Purchasing the horse for a 'high-profile' syndicate, Sangster said: 'He is a horse that leaves little to the imagination, he is the stamp of his father and a top-class racehorse to match. 'He's done it at Group Two level across three seasons and was Classic-placed (fourth in the French 2000 Guineas), which gives him a rare depth of form and longevity. 'The Jacques le Marois is the immediate target, and from there we have a number of exciting Group One races to consider, we are in world-class hands in that respect. 'With the strength of the ownership group and the National Stud behind him, this horse has every chance of being a major success both on the track and at stud we believe he will be very well received by European breeders.' Diego Velazquez will join the stallion roster at the National Stud for the 2026 breeding season, with further details to be announced in due course, and Sangster said: 'We've been on the hunt for a horse like this for some time, and I'd like to thank the team at Coolmore for giving us the opportunity to get involved with a colt of his calibre.' Soumillon's mount is one of 10 left in the Marois, with O'Brien also responsible for former Derby favourite The Lion In Winter and Rosallion (Richard Hannon), Notable Speech (Charlie Appleby) and Dancing Gemini (Roger Teal) representing British interests. Sangster added: 'He'll be running in the Sangster family colours, which will be one for the old romantics and it is very exciting, that is for sure. 'It will be a very exciting weekend for us with Rashabar running in the Prix Guillaume d'Ornano on Saturday and Christophe Soumillon is booked to ride both.'
