Someone in the UK who played the Euromillions last week has become a multimillionaire many times over – but they don’t know it yet.

People who bought their tickets in a shop have been urged to check their numbers in case they were the one to win the jackpot.

The winning ticket holder is yet to claim their £54,957,242.50 jackpot prize from the draw on June 10.

At this stage, all that has been revealed is that the winner, who matched all five main numbers and the two Lucky Star numbers, bought their EuroMillions ticket in retail.

The numbers were 17, 26, 36, 37 and 40 with the Lucky Stars 09 and 12.

As with all major prizes of £50,000 and above from tickets bought in a shop, if no valid claim has been received by two weeks after the draw, the area in which the ticket was purchased will be released.

This time delay is designed to encourage tickets to be checked but also to enable the ticket-holder to remain anonymous if they wish.
