RECORD £170M EUROMILLIONS JACKPOT PAID OUT TO UK TICKET-HOLDER
Beats the previous record of £161 Million pounds
A ticket-holder from the UK who claimed the biggest ever EuroMillions jackpot has been paid their record-breaking winnings.
Lottery operator Camelot has confirmed the £170 million prize has now been verified and the money paid, nearly three weeks after the draw on October 8.
The winning ticket-holder has chosen to remain anonymous, meaning no details about where he or she was from, their age or their occupation will be revealed.
Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at The National Lottery, said: "What an amazing win - the biggest ever on The National Lottery.
"The team will now support and help guide the ticket-holder as they begin their adventure with this life-changing win."
