The win is one of the biggest in National Lottery history

One lucky ticket holder from the UK scooped the EuroMillions jackpot of £111.7million last night.

It is one of the biggest lottery wins ever, making the winner richer than former One Direction star Harry Styles.


The winning numbers were 3, 12, 15, 25 and 43, with the lucky stars 10 and 11.

Players across Britain are being urged to check their tickets as soon as possible as the winner has only 180 days to claim.

Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at the National Lottery, said: "What a fantastic night for UK EuroMillions players, as a single ticket-holder has scooped tonight's special £111.7 million EuroMillions jackpot.

"Players are urged to check their tickets and to give us a call if they think they are tonight's lucky winner.

"Thanks to National Lottery players, £30million is generated every week for good causes across the country.

"This money supports projects across the nation, with a total of more than 670,000 grants - to projects both big and small - having been made across the UK to date."

The latest win comes after another Briton won an incredible £46.2million share in May.

A ticket from France and a ticket from Switzerland also matched the winning numbers to each take a third of the £138million prize.

The National Lottery is also urging another winner who has bagged £10,000 a month for 30 years to come forward and claim their prize.

The winning ticket for the Set For Life draw-based game was bought in the Stroud area of Gloucestershire

The winner now has until 14 November to claim their prize.

The prize, based on today's money, would be worth £3.6m over the total period.
