UK's biggest ever EuroMillions jackpot of £210,000,000 up for grabs on Tuesday
A huge EuroMillions prize has been rolled over to £210million after no one won last night's jackpot. Nobody successfully matched all seven of their numbers to claim last night's huge £201million jackpot. The EuroMillions winning numbers drawn on Friday were 13, 30, 35, 36, 40, as well as Lucky Star numbers two and six. The Thunderball numbers were 7, 19, 25, 35, 37 and the Thunderball was two. Tuesday's huge jackpot would make for a record National Lottery win if claimed by a single person, the competition has confirmed. All lottery winners have 180 days from the day of the draw to claim their winnings. Recent winners include dearest friends Carly Wiggett and Becky Witt who used a horoscope to win £168,000 each. A family from Cork, Ireland who won £216,000,000 and revealed they plan to stay in their home city, with no 'outrageous plans to spend the cash yet – except maybe a Rolex'. More Trending But not all big winners have had a fairytale ending, with some falling victim to assassination, abduction, substance abuse and, somewhat ironically, financial trouble. The numbers of millionaire winners whose lives have taken a turn for the worse have led some to dub it a curse. To win the next week's unprecedented estimated jackpot, entrants must have five winning numbers, as well as two EuroMillions Lucky Star numbers. For the Thunderball, players need to match all five main numbers plus the Thunderball. Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at webnews@ For more stories like this, check our news page.
