EuroMillions rollover CAPPED but record UK jackpot still up for grabs as latest draw saw no winners

The jackpot has reached its cap after rolling over from Tuesday's £199million draw, which also failed to produce a winner.

Any successful ticket holder would surpass the current UK record of £195million claimed by an anonymous winner in July 2022.

The prize would also eclipse the wealth of celebrities, including Adele and Harry Styles, placing the winner at the pinnacle of the National Lottery's all-time winners list.

With the jackpot now capped, the prize distribution system has shifted.

Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: "The EuroMillions jackpot is now capped, so any money that would have gone into increasing the jackpot now boosts prizes in the next winning prize tier."

He added: "We could see multiple UK players banking huge prizes for matching just the five main numbers and one Lucky Star."

The current £208million jackpot exceeds the previous UK record of £195million won by an anonymous ticket holder in July 2022.

Earlier that year, Joe and Jess Thwaite from Gloucester claimed £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket in May 2022.

Joe Thwaite recalled discovering their life-changing win whilst checking his phone at 5am.

Thwaite said: "I saw how much and I didn't know what to do."

"I couldn't go back to sleep, I didn't want to wake Jess up, so I just laid there for what seemed like forever. I spent some time searching for property with no budget limit, which was a novelty!"

When his wife eventually woke, she believed the National Lottery app must have malfunctioned.

Other notable wins include Richard and Debbie Nuttall from Lancashire, who secured £61million in February last year after initially believing they had won just £2.60.

This year's largest prize of £83million was claimed by a UK winner in January.
