National Lottery: 'Jaw dropping' EuroMillions jackpot of £83m finally claimed after 13 days

A claim has been received on an £83m EuroMillions jackpot lottery prize nearly two weeks after the draw.

The National Lottery operators, Allwyn, said the ticket-holder was in possession of their ticket for 13 days before registering the claim, totalling £83,474,081.

The winner ranks 23rd on the lottery's "most spectacular" wins of all time.

Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: "This is absolutely incredible news, and we are delighted that this jaw-dropping EuroMillions jackpot prize has now been claimed.

"Everyone dreams of that huge win when they buy their EuroMillions ticket - and for this lucky ticket-holder this dream has become a reality. Imagine all the possibilities that are now within their grasp.

"We will now focus on supporting this ticket-holder through the process so they can start enjoying their win as soon as possible."

It was reported last month that someone had won the huge prize, but it has taken until now for someone to come forward.

The winning player matched all five main numbers and both the lucky star numbers to win the draw.

The main winning numbers were 02, 11, 19, 30 and 49, while the lucky star numbers were 03 and 08.

Mr Allwyn said there would be no information about whether the winner was an individual or a syndicate, or where the ticket was purchased, unless the ticket-holder decides to go public.
