A UK ticket-holder has won more than £171m with the EuroMillions jackpot, Camelot has said.
Tonight’s National Lottery EuroMillions winning numbers were: 14, 15, 22, 35, 48.
The Lucky Stars were: 03, 08.
One UK millionaire has been created with a winning code of: HJML89118.
Only 16 people in the UK have won more than £100m, putting the latest winners in an elite group.
No information will be released on whether the claimant is an individual, or a syndicate winner unless the ticket holder decides to go public.
But they won’t surpass two previous record holders – winners Joe and Jess Thwaite, a couple from Gloucester, who revealed their identities after winning £184m on the EuroMillions back in May.

What can you buy with £171 million?
The winner is now richer than Adele (who is worth £150m) – and £171 million will go an unsurprisingly long way.
They could buy 585 houses, based on the latest UK average. Or if luxury property is more their thing, they can now buy three Mayfair townhouses – complete with gym and library – and still have change to spare.
