The woman from Surrey matched five numbers alongside one Lucky Star

A woman has scooped a EuroMillions prize exceeding £118,000 after experiencing an extraordinary premonition about her impending fortune.

The married woman from Surrey secured her windfall by correctly selecting five main numbers alongside a Lucky Star in the popular European lottery game.


She said she "put her faith in the universe" when deciding to play the game.

The woman added she aims to live in a more relaxed manner, adding that "winning the lottery has made me feel free."

Her decision to play online proved fortuitous, as she joined millions of participants who regularly try their luck through the National Lottery's digital channels.

Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery, said: "What a life-altering moment this is for our winner.

"We know how much it means for EuroMillions prize winners to be able to clear their debts and enjoy financial freedom.

"We sincerely hope that they relish this moment and the relief it brings, huge congratulations."

Draw bosses have revealed that more than £12million in National Lottery prizes is still sitting unclaimed.

One mystery winner has just weeks left before their chance to cash in disappears.

Boyle Lotto said there are three unclaimed jackpots in the UK, including two £1million wins and an eye-watering £10.6million sum.

Each player now faces a race against time to come forward before the deadlines expire.

A Boyle Lotto spokesman told the Daily Star: "It’s incredible to think there could be brand-new millionaires out there completely unaware of their luck.

"We’d urge everyone to check old tickets - whetherthey’re tucked in coat pockets, glove boxes, or drawers, before these life-changing prizes disappear."

The first outstanding prize, worth £1million, was won in the Lotto draw on May 24 after one ticket bought in Birmingham matched five numbers plus the bonus ball.

The largest unclaimed loot stands at £10,633,323, from the Lotto draw on October 4, 2025, with person who bought the ticket in the London Borough of Bexley having until April 2, 2026, to make their claim.

Another £1million prize remains unclaimed from the EuroMillions draw on August 15 through the Millionaire Maker code.

The winner also comes from Birmingham and must come forward by February 11, 2026.

A UK ticket-holder scooped £25.7million EuroMillions jackpot earlier this month, marking the fourth UK winner this year.

Earlier wins this year include £65million on Valentine’s Day, and a huge £83million jackpot in January.
